Here are the last twenty of my favorite photos from concerts I have attended this year. I have seen some excellent concerts, both with big international artists and also by lesser known artists and bands. And I have been able to photograph over 300 different concerts in 2019, which is a personal record for me. (Photo above: Robyn from Øyafestivalen)

One of the great things of being a concert photographer in Norway is the good friendship between us who do it regularly. We compete, of course, but at the same time we cooperate, helping each others out. I do think this is quite unique, and it makes shooting a festival or big concert a joy. I must also say that we have some real good connections with the venues, the promoters and many of the bands and artists, and this also contributes to this being such a pleasurable thing.
