You get really cool lighting and colors in your photos. How do you do this? Thanks!

hi! i don’t know how old this is bc i never check this thing but a big portion of it is the lighting in a venue! most of the time i just try to make it brighter with the highlight tool. colors is all about experimenting with camera calibration, split toning, and the color panel in lightroom. hope it helps!

i want to start getting into photographing bands, how did you get to be able to

start shooting local shows you go to from the crowd to at least learn about how your camera works in low light if nothing else. reach out to online/print publications and see if they need photographers + send your portfolio over
