I’m Kara and I’ve been invested in the world of music since I was 14 when I discovered bands like Fall Out Boy and Twenty One Pilots. I’ve always loved making art, and because of my love for music, I ended up finding my passion for concert photography. After years of taking pictures on my phone at every concert I went to, I finally started doing concert photography professionally in 2024.
