About us

Music-Photocalypse.net is a photo-project started by two music and photography addicts: Jana Blomqvist from Finland and Cornelia Wickel from Germany. Cornelia came up with the name somewhen in 2007, wondering what she might do with it. Together with Jana she started working things out and in early 2008 the project slowly started to assume a definite form. Since they had both been shooting concerts for quite a few years now and the pictures were piling up, they decided that they'd need some place, where they could publish pictures under their own conditions without any restrictions from magazines and such. That's how Music-Photocalypse.net was born , well basically. ;-)

Some of you might already know their works from Deviantart or from various magazines/bands they have already worked and are still working with (just check our affiliates). Apart from the pics you might already know from there, expect some yet unpublished stuff. Furthermore they surely have some more ideas on their minds, time may tell...

They always try to capture some precious moments with their pictures - the energy, emotions, feelings of a live gig. Making it possible to "see" the music in this way. Receiving comments like "I can feel what this gig must've been like, when having a look at this pic!" are surely some of the best comments you can get as a concert photographer - they show, that you've captured the band in the right way. The chase for the right moment, despite those sometimes really unpleasing and rough conditions, like difficult lights and all that, make this kind of photography so interesting and challenging. There's always room left for improvement! No matter what the circumstances might've been like, the pictures compensate for everything lateron, reactions from people even more.

Besides the pics, that are already online, you can expect tons of pictures from various festivals/shows in Finland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Netherlands, Russia or whereever we might invade the photopits. There are pictures of 120 different bands so far, more coming soon. Just jump over to the gallery section and have fun.
