About Me
Hello, my name is Ellen and I am an Asian American woman (she/her/hers). Thanks for stopping by!
I'm a freelance photographer based in New York City available for hire with a passion for shooting concerts.
I have additional experience in event photography, portraiture, and street photography.
I picked up a camera due to my lifelong devotion to music. I found inspiration in concert photography and learned how to use a camera as a tool to capture the emotion and the energy of a specific moment.
I've shot performances in people's living rooms, on sidewalks in the streets of New York, DIY spaces and venues that hold a few hundred people, for 3-day festivals with multiple stages, and in places as large and legendary as Radio City Music Hall, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall and Madison Square Garden.
I'm a photographer for Brooklyn Vegan, We All Want Someone to Shout For, The Bowery Presents, Kings Theatre, AdHoc Presents, Rough Trade, Murmrr and Pioneer Works.
Other clients include: Sonos, Blackwing, Live From Here, Cafe Carlyle, (le) poisson rouge, Brooklyn Museum, Savor Your Senses, Little Water Radio, Animation Nights New York and Out To See.
You can find examples of my recently published work here.
I also write concert reviews and have hosted a radio show, and occasionally deejay at weddings, birthday parties, or festivals.
If you think you've seen me before at a concert, you probably have. 📷😀
