Concert Photography Masterclass
It’s time to take your Concert Photography to the NEXT LEVEL!
Hi, I’m Kostas! I’ve been a professional Photographer/Videographer for the last 7 years, and have shot concerts for the last 3 years.
I got my start in music touring with DJ Duo Loud Luxury, and since then, I have shot for artists like DIPLO, Major Lazer, Two Friends, DiscoLines, Shipwreck, Hayden James, SG Lewis, and Dombresky, just to name a few.
I’ve learned so much about how to shoot concerts over the last few years, and I’m excited to share all that knowledge with you today!
