 Hi Andy,

thank you for the offer,

I have no any specific questions yet, hope will have some later.

I have some experience shooting in a small clubs and larger places.

Could I know your opinion about the following gallery - http://www.pbase.com/muper/electraozenbar25032010 as example of the small club

and big club - http://www.pbase.com/muper/funknstein_barby_19022010&page=all

do you see really bad or really good photos?

What should I improve in my works?

 

thank you for your time

 

 

 

 

 

With Best regards, Muper

I think your live style looks great.

My advice would be to really build releationships with a band. A picture editor I would like to see the front of house gig, The band backstage before and after the gig.

 

Shoot a live gig like a story feature and Music Mags will snap you up in a flash.

They want to know that if they send you on a shoot you will cover the whole event and create a story.

There are so many people with great cameras shooting gigs from the front of house that music photographers who are really series have to go that extra mile.

 

Good luck
