We tend to fixate on the things we haven’t done rather than be proud of the things we’ve already accomplished. Little did I know back then 😇

Such a sweet trend, thanks @thereisadtr for helping me with my videos 🫶

Luke Noa meets fashion 🎞️

When planning a photo shoot as an artist (photographer), don’t just think in “outfits”, think in mood & message.

The best images don’t happen when everything is perfect, but when you know WHO you want to be. What matches the artist you created visually?

This photo shoot was exactly that: somewhere between stage persona and editorial energy. Luke Noa has always known what he wants his unique style to look like. I’d describe it as edgy old-school Hollywood energy 🎬

I always recommend scheduling a call where artist and photographer go over a mood board to plan the shoot.

Which direction do you vibe with more, raw or polished?

Get backstage with me at a Royal Republic show! Most important memory of @wagenhallen Stuttgart is that catering was 10/10 haha, thank you so much ❤️‍🔥

Is it like you imagined it to look like?

#royalrepublic #womeninmusicbusiness #concertphotographer #behindthescenes #backstagelife @lightroom @sonyalpha @sony.deutschland.at

The first round of my new mastermind series is for female music photographers from Germany and opens NOW! 💥

It’s gonna be a deep dive into the photography universe mixed with a little bit of personal growth ❤️‍🔥

3 MONTHS
• 2-3 zoom calls a month
• Monday or Tuesday evening starting February 9th
• Max. 8 participants
• 25€/call per person (like a reformer pilates drop in but for your brain)
• Recording available for a week if you couldn’t participate in a live call

An interactive mastermind is a space where we create exchange on eye level, talking about experiences, finding solutions to your problems together and cheer each other on!!

Each call includes a mentoring/coaching session with Diana about a certain topic:

- portfolio feedback
- self employment
- pricing
- self worth
- tour life
- mental health
- and whatever you want me to talk about!

Send me a DM to join the CIRCLE OF DEPTH 📸🤘

Sounds familiar? 👀 I used to think so too, but here’s my unpopular opinion: It’s not an insult!

Most people don’t understand what it takes to take good photographs, how you see things, how composition makes a huge difference in how a picture affects you, how depth, light and color grading can change a subject completely. So next time, take the compliment and let them know calmly that it’s the person who creates the photograph. Somehow, all my cameras take good pictures! 😄

No offense taken but now you know ☺️

Comment 📸 if this sentence ever hurt you a little and tag a photographer who’s heard this too many times!

Expensive gear won’t make you a better photographer ❌

Hi, my name is Diana and I’ve been working as a music photographer for 10 years. I get asked a lot about which gear I use as a concert and wedding photographer and after switching from Canon to Sony those are my favorite (and only) lenses.

I think we can agree though that it’s not the camera that takes the good pictures, it’s YOU and your eye for it 📸

But you might have made different experiences, so what are your favorites?

Do you agree?

I always thought I wasn’t brave enough. Then I took a three-month solo trip through the U.S. at 23 🙌

All I knew was that I wanted to go to California. After spending a few days at a friends’ place in Indianapolis I landed at LAX, got my rental car and had to navigate through the most insane rush hour madness to get to my first Airbnb in Dana Point.

I was scared, unsure, and far from fearless but I went anyway. Looking back, that decision and what happened during my trip changed how I see myself forever.

Would you do it?

Shoutout to my friend @flopunktwe who took the first and the last picture. The one of me at the festival was taken by @ilkay_karakurt. And to @omarmzaki the guy from couch surfing who was a great travel companion 🌄
