Now we are talking my type of photography. This is how I spend most of my time behind the camera. And if I had a nickel for each time someone asked me if I was the bands photographer, Id be a rich man.

I shoot with a flash, if Im allowed, can get close enough, and Im not annoying the band. I almost always shoot close-ups, to keep my meter from taking in to much background. I keep a finger on the exposure compensation control, and Im quick to dial down. But most of all I keep and eye out for facial expressions, and The Moment shots. In the end, Concert photos are a serious challenge if you are not the bands official photographer.
