About this listen

Everyone wants to shoot bands. The flashing lights, the pit access, the epic shots for Instagram. It looks like the dream job. But here’s the truth: starting out in music and event photography is messy, intimidating, and often unpaid.

This week I’m joined by Jonathan aka JmPhotography http://instagram.com/jmphoto97 , a newer music photographer I met while shooting Midgardsblot Festival in Norway. He’s right at the start of his journey, learning the hard way what it really takes to break in. We talk about the myths, the mistakes, the gatekeepers, and the small wins that keep you going when you’re new.

If you’ve ever thought about grabbing a camera and getting into the pit, this is the no-bullshit guide you need. Hope, help, and harsh reality—served Loud Lens style.
