Who the f*ck is Matt Christine?!

Yeah, that’s a fair question - I ask it to myself at least once a week to be honest. My name is Matt Christine and I’ve been chasing “the shot” at concerts & events for the better part of a decade now. Across the metaverse people know me as @matt_christine_ and in the real world I’ve been called many things including venue marketer, occasional tour photographer, graphic designer and of course - concert photographer. Since 2011, I’ve been actively freelancing as a photographer within the concert and event industry with my work being published internationally by the Grammys, Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, Revolver Magazine, The Huffington Post, Guitar World, Pollstar, The Verge, Entertainment Weekly, Modern Drummer & more. In 2018 I received the IAVM 30 Under 30 Award for my work with ASM Global as the Director of Marketing for the Santander Arena and Santander Performing Arts Center in Reading, PA.

Sharon Sipple

Sharon has been shooting music since the 80s. She started with local bands and worked her way up to becoming the house photographer for Hershey for many years. She also spent several years photographing the in-park entertainment at Hersheypark. At one point, she even had the opportunity to spend a few days on the road with Poison. Her photos were featured in their tour book as well as in the Flesh and Blood liner notes. Sharon has also been a photographer for Stars on Ice for the last six years, with her work appearing in their tour books, merchandise, and billboard campaigns. Sharon also has a passion for wildlife photography. The concept behind both concerts and wildlife is surprisingly similar — you need to know your subject, understand their habits, and be ready to anticipate the action. When she isn’t behind the camera, Sharon works as an IT Project Manager in the Harrisburg area.

As a lover of both music and photography, it's great to be able to mix the two of them together. I love the excitement and the in the moment of concert photography. I'm also a portrait photographer and have been doing photography professionally since the beginning of 2020. Equipment I use are the Canon R6 and R6 Mark II along with a 24-70mm and a 70-200mm both f2.8 as my main lenses. I also have long lenses for soundboard shoots along with various fixed focal length lenses. I cover Wisconsin shows with Milwaukee, Madison and Green Bay as my main focus. I am available for hire in Wisconsin for any bands in need of a photographer, concerts or promotional photos.

Jennifer is a Pennsylvania-based concert photographer whose lens finds the emotion, grit, and energy at the heart of every live performance. From packed festivals to intimate venues, she’s passionate about freezing the moments that make music unforgettable — whether it’s a guitarist mid-leap, a crowd lost in a chorus, or the quiet intensity between songs. With a sharp eye for detail and a deep love for the alternative, emo, punk, and metal scenes, Jennifer’s work blends raw emotion with vivid storytelling. Her journey into photography is as personal as it is artistic — she found healing and purpose through the music and the community that surrounds it. For Jennifer, every photo is a chance to connect, to tell a story, and to remind people that music saves—and so do the memories we make through it

Kerry is a live performance photographer and hails from West Lothian, Scotland - sandwiched between Edinburgh and Glasgow, and which just happens to be (in her totally unbiased opinion) the musical hub of the country. Music has been such a huge part of her life, so much so that she named her photography business Red Ledger because of the massive debt she owes to the artists who create the songs that fill our souls, and the hope that she can pay it back through her dynamic images of them on stage. She was also awarded The British Institute of Professional Photographers Reportage and Photojournalism Photographer of The Year for her live performance work in 2025 and can't wait to see what incredible shows she'll capture this year.

Jen is a Seattle-based concert photographer, music lover & visual artist. She’s always had a passion for visual storytelling and live music, so it only made sense to bring those two passions together and start documenting concerts. She focuses on telling the “big picture” story of the show while also capturing the tiny details that help to tell the entire narrative. Her career as a graphic designer & visual artist shines through in the edit – she strives to bring each image to life and make it feel like it did in the moment. Her passion for color & composition gives the photos depth and impact.She got her start working as a photographer for Brandi Carlile and has since branched out to cover many other artists. Originally from the Appalachian mountains of West Virginia and now living in Seattle, she’s developed an appreciation for music across all genres – and can’t wait to document them all.
