    Hey Mark,

    I recommend Natalia Kempin (Natalia Die Hexe) from Germany.
    She is 100 % into concert / live photography!
    Most of her works represent big metal and rock events such as Wacken (80K visitors), Summer Breeze (40-45K visitors), but also “single” shows and concerts.
    Her works were published in the music magazines (e.g. Metal Hammer, Legacy, Dark City, Perkusista, Batterie), bands’ biographies (e.g. Behemoth) and CDs / DVDs, but also were seen on NAMM, TAMA drum festival and Musikmesse (e.g. for the Pearl Europe’s booth).
    Apparently, she is also a singer who had released 5 albums with several bands and a model (modeled for a thrash / death metal band from the Netherlands).

    Metal is not an easy genre to photograph since apart of the difficulties a photographer may meet at a show, in order to be successful as a rock / metal photographer (and especially on a festival), one has to be able to shoot under the rain and while being blown away by a hurricane, almost being killed by crowd surfers and pyro effects on the stage and always fighting oceans of dust (a gentle reminder – Wacken, 80K visitors) and a fog machine!!!

    I love her works a lot and follow her pretty much everywhere :)!
    Big thumb up and give her a go!

    • Mark Condon on March 20, 2023 at 10:31 am

      Thanks Helene – we’ll invite Natalia for sure :)

  39. Greg on August 5, 2015 at 5:30 pm

    Hi mark

    I have an idea for you. As a newbie it’s both intimidating and inspirational reading the posts by those turning out stunning images (I’m a wedding photographer but this may apply to others too). I have picked up numerous tips from this site and been amazed at how some of the photographers on here use such simple kit to produce the results they get. Then others use a tonne of kit, homemade gadgets, crazy techniques etc. It’s a brilliant insight into how photographers have found their ‘style’.

    It would be great to have a newcomer Spotlight. Photographers that have been in business for under 2 years. What kit they started with, how they have evolved, influences and the direction they want to head in. Then perhaps the established pros can comment with hints, tips etc. there could be a set 6 questions the newbies have to answer. You could do one a month.

    Anyways, keep up the good work. I thoroughly enjoy reading shot kit for all the styles and genres of photography.

    Greg

    • Mark on August 5, 2015 at 7:23 pm

      Hi Greg, that’s a great idea – thanks so much for sharing. I need to get my head around how to work something like this into the site, but I agree that it’d be a great resource for newbies. Watch this space ;-)

    • George Neill on August 6, 2015 at 10:05 am

      I’d be open to sharing my noob photography journey. Been shooting for less than two years.

    I would like to see Neil Grant BUCHAN, British Travel Photographer of the year 2014.
    He is a really good photog and shoots fashion, portraits, travel, what have you AND he uses MFT equipment for most of it. GOOGLE him for his web site.

    • Mark on July 30, 2015 at 5:48 pm

      Hi Joseph. How funny – I used to deal with Yechiel a lot when he worked at B&H and never knew he was a photographer himself! I’ll definitely hit him up. Thanks for the recommendation!

    Hey Mark,

    Here’s a short list of a few really talented guys who are some of the best in their perspective fields of work. I would love to know what these guys take along when they go to work, how they take it with them – ie. packing and transport (on airplanes), and how they carry their gear while working in the field. And of course, at the end of the day when they’re done shooting, what their processing workflow is like.

    Hi Mark,

    There are some beautifully amazing european photographers, especially from Croatia and Slovenia.

    Marko Marinkovic (marinkovic-weddings)
    David and Ena Mihoci (mihoci.com and enaphotoart.com)
    Samo Rovan (samorovan.com)
    Hrvoje Golubic ( he has several websites suvh as golubic-weddings, hrvojegolubic.com for his amazing conceptual and fine art and creativedogphotography.com)

    Also Jeff Ascough and Kevin Mullins would be great to present themselves.

    Sasa

    • Mark on June 26, 2015 at 3:04 pm

      Thanks so much Sasa! I’d love to have more European photogs on the site. I’ll look at their work for sure :-)

    Hello form NYC! I’ve just discovered your website and and so happy that I did. I’d like to see a great newcomer to the photography scene, Shavon Meyers https://shavonmeyers.com/ featured on your site. Not only is she a photographer but an amazing filmmaker as well. I’d love to see what she carries in her bag or learn more about her in a feature.

    • Mark on December 18, 2014 at 7:30 pm

      Hi Greg! I’m glad you’re liking the site. Thanks for the tip :-)

      Hey Rich! Thanks for the comment and kind words – I’m glad you enjoy Shotkit. I’ve already contacted all those photographers in the past actually and they all agreed to contribute :-) Erika just submitted today – weird timing! I’ll be publishing them all in the coming months.

  81. Michael on September 9, 2014 at 12:59 pm

    My older brother, Chris Glenn, he recently left the confines of his desk job to tackle his photography career head on… he’s been killing it lately, granted I never see him anymore I can only assume he’s out shooting (or in a dark corner editing like crazy). Most of his work is down in the Florida Keys. Thanks!

    • Mark on September 9, 2014 at 6:57 pm

      Thanks Michael – I’ll take a look!

  82. Joel on August 22, 2014 at 4:21 am

    I would love to see Sam Elkins, hes a photographer in the Washington area and his style is so emotional. Really well done. Lost of landscapes and portraits his use ( or lack of) color is really amazing. I would really like to see him on ShotKit!

  83. Reese on August 3, 2014 at 3:54 pm

    I hope you can feature Rylee Hitchner. She’s a film photographer specializing in weddings and editorial. https://ryleehitchner.com/ Just found your site via Ben Sasso and I’m enjoying it so much. Good luck and keep up the good work here.

    • Mark on August 3, 2014 at 4:02 pm

      Thanks for the tip Reese and I’m glad you’re enjoying Shotkit! I’ll reach out to Rylee this week ;-)

    • Mark on June 29, 2014 at 7:19 am

      Thanks for introducing me to such a fine selection of photojournalists Magnus! PJ is definitely an underrepresented genre on Shotkit. James Nachtwey’s name cropped up in an interview with Nordica which I’ll be posting soon. Unfortunately I couldn’t find any contact details for him, but consider all the others contacted ;-)

  88. Abbey on June 27, 2014 at 11:20 pm

    Kurt boomer photography! Amazing work with film!

    • Mark on June 28, 2014 at 7:52 am

      We do need some more film shooters on Shotkit! Thanks Abbey, let’s see what he says.

  89. Katie Rudrick on June 17, 2014 at 1:25 pm

    Can you please upload Matt Donovan’s kit from itsworthashot.com (@itsworthashot on instagram).
    I’ve been following him for a while now he takes the most beautiful landscape photos from all over Australia. Top questions would be: what did you start off with vs what you have now. And what equipment hacks do you have for emerging photographers who can’t afford all the wiz-bang stuff?

    Thank you thank you thank you in advance!!!!!!!!

    • Mark on June 17, 2014 at 8:02 pm

      I’ll see what I can do Katie!

  92. Rudy on June 4, 2014 at 6:43 pm

    Definitely would like to see what she carries in her kit bag as she is more of a environmental portrait/editorial/commercial photographer, and would also add to the female roster as someone asked for.

    • Rudy on June 5, 2014 at 4:31 pm

      (Mackenzie Stroh) for some reason her name and link did not make it with my first post.

      • Mark on June 5, 2014 at 8:42 pm

        Thanks for the suggestion Rudy – Mackenzie’s work is amazing! Fingers crossed she’s keen on submitting to Shotkit!

  93. Joel on June 4, 2014 at 10:55 am

    David Burnett, one of my all time favorite photojournalists. He is legendary for doing things like covering Olympic events with large format cameras or shooting portraits for Time with a Holga. It would be interesting to see what he’s carrying around at the moment and more love for PJs here would be cool.

    Justin Hackworth, he’s does weddings, portraits and some concert photography in Utah. His images always convey an incredible sense of intimacy with his subjects so I think it might be neat to see what he’s using or more importantly not using while getting his subjects to let down their guard.

    • Mark on June 5, 2014 at 8:37 pm

      David has kindly agreed to send in his submission soon :-)

  94. Guillermo on May 28, 2014 at 4:07 am
