DSP MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY

"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur."

Red Adair

What are your music photography needs?

Whether you are a solo singer-songwriter or an 11-piece jazz-funk band, a concert venue or festival producer, an artist manager or a publicist, a print magazine or an on-line blog, DSP has you covered for all of your professional photography needs.  

Performance

When you want to preserve a moment in a single still image, no stage is too small or too big for DSP. With many years of experience, DSP offers a quality level and attention to detail that your project deserves.

Promotion / Publicity

Are you looking for an evocative lead image for your EPK, a compelling photo for album art or for merch collectibles? DSP would love to collaborate with you.

Behind The Scenes

Your fans experience your on-stage story, but do they know your backstage or recording studio story? Why not tell them about it? Better yet, why not show them?

Festival / Venue Crowd

Fact: People love to see photos of people - especially themselves. Fans love crowd shots. This intrigue and energy should not go un-utilized by artists, event promoters, or publications.

"David has been the Salvage Station house photographer for several years and is always coming up with new and creative ways for us to maximize our partnership. He is a true professional and never fails to exceed my expectations with his exceptional photography skills, attention to detail, timeliness, reliability, and knowledge.

Are you struggling to get noticed?

In today's instant-gratification world, differentiating yourself in the music business is no easy task. It's not too difficult to get lost in the noise.

The solution?

Think beyond the music itself. Your use of imagery is an investment, and it plays an essential role in capturing the attention of your fans, audience, or readers, and in drawing them closer to your music, venue, festival, or publication.

So, why compromise?

Isn't it time you collaborated with a true professional who has your best interests in mind -- someone whose top priority is to help you stand out, and to tell your story and cut through the noise? 

DSP is here to help you through the process to ensure that you get the greatest return on your photography investment. The DSP Music Photography guide is just the starting point. Get yours today, along with the DSP EPK and pricing information.

The music business isn't all about music. 

Sometimes, it takes more than catchy melodies and heart-wrenching lyrics to get noticed. 

In today's social media world, you're more likely to get the attention of your fans and followers with compelling visuals than your are with a screaming guitar solo.

Your choice of imagery in your marketing should complement your music or written words, and should not be an afterthought or, worse, a reflection of a lack of attention to detail, quality, and professionalism. 

Isn't it worth making photography a priority, and investing in top-quality images that will bring in new fans, ticket-buyers, or readers?
