JAZZ!

concert photograph of Wynton Marsalis. An example of concert photography by Darcey Bournay

This concert photograph of Wynton Marsalis was shot at the Detroit State Fair several years back. Some of the concerts at the State Fair were free with admission. I recall enjoying a nice summer day at the fair and then finding very close seats well in advance of the jazz concert. Wynton put on a wonderful concert. I found that he looked right into the camera many times. I shot a lot of wonderful concert photographs that evening. Remember to shoot a lot of photos to get the handful of wonderful shots. This particular image was shot with 35mm film long before I even knew what a digital camera was. Every single concert shot takes on a different mood and expression. Happy shooting!
