Behind The Lens: Navigating The Concert Photography Industry

Sarah, a touring videographer and photographer, shares her journey and insights into building a successful career in the music industry. She discusses the importance of celebrating wins along the way while continuing to push for new goals.

• Building relationships is more important than technical skills in the touring world
• Starting in small venues with bad lighting develops crucial problem-solving abilities
• Networking with bands, crew members, and other industry professionals opens unexpected doors
• Monetizing knowledge through platforms like Patreon can be valuable when people constantly ask for advice
• Learning through trial and error builds more versatile skills than starting at the top
• The music industry is small - your reputation (good or bad) follows you everywhere
• Success comes from hard work, not luck - being in the right place consistently creates opportunities
