Credits - Dustin Rabin - Still Photographer

My main gig for the past 30 years has been photographing and touring with the biggest names in rock music – Paul McCartney, Foo Fighters, Queens Of The Stone Age, Billy Talent to name a few – but I've also done a lot of still photography and gallery shoots along the way.

While I'm best known for my music photography, that work requires a very similar skillset to that of a still photographer so I consider those 30 years of experience extremely valuable and relevant. There's a long list of similarities between life on the road and life on set.

I document A-list musicians on tour, stealthily navigating massive stages as well as intimate rehearsal spaces, capturing iconic moments without being seen. And I produce the portrait shoots I do for album art and publicity as I would gallery shoots.

When I was a kid I visited my Dad on set and dreamed of growing up to be a movie director. I worked in various departments in Film and Television until I was 21, when I became interested in pursuing a career in music photography.

Decades later, I've come full circle and look forward to the next chapter of my career as a still photographer.
