From Rolling Stone Magazine to the latest instagram feed, celebrity has always meant being seen and hopefully in the coolest way.

Icons are built on innate talent, personality and a well crafted image of who they are and want to be believed to be. Musicians in particular rely heavily on photographers to capture their essence and persona to become known legends.

So when my dear, wildly creative, friend since the third grade, Brian Lima grew up to be an insanely talented and successful music photographer, I had to share him and his all access pass with you.

Hang out with us as we shoot the s%#t like the old friends we are about our shared love/hate relationship with photography, the trajectory of his creative career in the music scene, Joni Mitchell at Newport Folk last year and so much more.

Join us as we explore:

• How photography can shape how you look at life.
• What it means to be a seer in the world and its many lessons.
• How to fuel your creativity and stay in relationship with your art.
• The ways being present allows you to experience more of the moment
• The unexpected way listening informs how you see and beyond.

MORE ABOUT BRIAN LIMA:

I remember getting my first couple of vinyl LP's as a kid and falling in love with the album art and the photography that told the visual story of the music I loved listening to. Anton Corbijn black & white images for The Joshua Tree by U2 blew my mind. Dennis Morris's candids and portraits of Bob Marley are magic, Henry Diltz's Laurel Canyon work just so dreamy. To this day I'm constantly inspired by so many other photographers work.

​

I'm constantly in search of new projects and ideas. 2023 will mark 13 years of being one of the principal photographers for the historic Newport Folk Festival & Newport Jazz Festival. I'm proud of the images I'm creating with this amazingly talented team of creatives.

​

I'm also part of the creative team for Coachella Music Festival. 2020 is Coachella's 20th anniversary. It has been fun to watch this idea blossom into what it has become.
