In Focus: Crowd Surfing
Cover photos by (left to right): Jenny Ramone Photo, Mallory Turner, Annie Lesser, Gili Dailes, Victoria Ford (Sneakshot Photography)
In Focus is a Photo Ladies collaborative photo series that showcases TPL members’ favorite photos, focusing on a different theme each month.
As concert photographers we always wait for an exciting moment to happen on stage so that we can capture it, but sometimes we are treated to an exciting moment off the stage. This month we are giving you our favorite Crowd Surfing photos, with the hope that we can soon return to witnessing such epic moments safely

IN FOCUS: Keyboardists
Cover photos by (left to right): Elizabeth Friar, Jordan Hefler, Edwina Hay, Erin Brown, Dana Jacobs
In Focus is a Photo Ladies collaborative photo series that showcases TPL members’ favorite photos, focusing on a different subject each time. Following the success of our first In Focus feature which was all about Drummers, we decided to dedicate the second feature to a subject that is just as challenging to photograph: Keyboardists! From digital keyboards to pianos, from small gigs to Elton John: this is a selection of our photographers’ all-time favorite keyboardists photos.

In Focus is a new Photo Ladies collaborative photo series which showcases TPL members’ favorite photos, focusing on a different subject each time.
As concert photographers, one of our more challenging tasks is often taking a great photo of the drummer. Whilst they’re absolutely critical for the success of a good show, drummers are often hidden by their massive drum kits, tucked away at the very back of the stage or don’t get enough stage lights on them.
We decided to kick off our In Focus series by putting drummers in the spotlight for a change, with a selection of our community’s all-time favorite drummers photos.
