Life’s crazy sometimes 🫠📸 During my time in London I could barely afford attending a concert per month. Live music was essential for me but couldn’t be part of it at that moment and never imagined I would ever have the chance to become a concert photographer at some point. To be back in the city today to see one of my pictures exhibited at
@outernetglobal as part of
@abbeyroadmpa 2025 exhibition was not in my bingo-life card. Being shortlisted as emerging photographer of the year by
@abbeyroadmpa feels surreal and truly gratifying. Thank you
@abbeyroadmpa for this recognition, for all of your work and for giving us as an industry which sometimes is invisible this opportunity of becoming visible and valued.
I never imagined when I took that photo during those special-and-sweaty gigs of
@carolinadurante_ at
@wurlitzerballroom how far that simple picture would go, leading me to this day. Capturing the feelings and energy of the audience at concerts has always been essential to me, and I’m really happy to have been selected with a picture that captures that essence in this way.
Shortlisted pictures will be displayed at
@outernetglobal until January. If you’re in London at some point during that time, come in and admire all the brilliant works selected! All of them are incredibly amazing and show how diverse this industry is!
See you in the mosh pit! #concertphotography #abbeyroadstudios #London #ConcertPhoto #CarolinaDurante
