Todd Owyoung - Music&Concert Photography - a podcast by CreativeLive

Todd Owyoung is a music photographer specializing in music lifestyle, musician/celebrity portraits, and concert photography and is a Nikon Ambassador. His clients range from bands and festivals to magazines, lifestyle brands and ad agencies. His blog ishootshows.com features over a thousand posts, ranging from articles on technique for concert photography to gear recommendations to advice on breaking into music photography.

We recorded this episode while Todd was in Seattle filming his Getting Started in Music Photography workshop in partnership with Red Bull Photography & CreativeLive. Todd takes us along his journey building a portfolio in St. Louis, moving to NYC to follow the dream, and becoming a Nikon Ambassador. He describes that electrifying feeling of being in the photo pit chasing the iconic image. We talk through the pain points of making money as a music photographer and tips on where to start. He tells us about the one show that changed everything for him. Todd encourages everyone, no matter what genre, to make the images that only you can uniquely make.

This is We Are Photographers with Todd Owyoung and this is his story.
