Concert photography is a specific field that requires both particular skills and specific technical parameters of the shot. There are many points that distinguish a concert from other types of photography environments. Taking a good shot of a live music show is among the most difficult tasks in photography, but also among the most satisfying. This is because it is very likely to obtain a truly unique shot as a result, especially when you do it like a pro, because what happens on the stage is dynamic.

This article presents 25 Excellent Concert Photography Examples. All images are linked to their sources, which you are encouraged to visit. Other work of the photographers we have featured here is certainly worth discovering as well. Please notice that some images are available as prints as well.
