Published Photo Reportages 2009 – 2018
Concert photography, photo reportage and articles
Below you find a list of published work in the field of concert photography and music photography. I make photo reportages from live concerts, festivals and tours. I also write articles and make sometimes live reviews of concert and festivals alongside the photos.
Follow the links to read the live reviews and to see the photos.
INFERNO
Inferno magazine is the major metal magazine in Finland. These are new photos after Inferno changed to publish live reviews online. Older photos are published in the paper magazine. I have been doing occasional journalistic work for Inferno since 2007. It all started from a KISS concert.
