Tips for Band Photos That Rock
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and you should certainly keep this fact in mind with band photos. Decide as a band what kind of impression you're seeking to get across to the world and then make sure your photos are striking in just the way you wanted. Your band photos will immediately convey some image, so make sure it's a good one.
Keep in mind that many professional photographers specialize in a particular variety of photography, so hold out until you find a professional music photographer. If there's a local band with photography you've admired, contact them for their photographer's contact information for an easy connect, or ask around your contacts in the music business for a referral. Ideally you'll find a music photographer who can provide a wide range of services like album covers, live concert shots, and maybe some shots in their studio or your band's favorite hangout spot. Remember that working with a photographer makes you the customer, so make sure you talk to the photographers and choose the one you think best understands you as a band and the kind of photos you're looking for.
