Our friend Marc Silber interviews Michael Zagaris.

We’re in San Francisco with our guest Michael Zagaris, also known as “the Z-man”. Michael has shot some of the most amazing rock & roll photos in his career behind the music. He became the band photographer for the Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin, and the list of rock legends he captured on film goes on and on. As a rock & roll insider in those days, he took photos of what was, not what one expected to see, and as an insider today he does the same thing for 21st century bands and artists. As team photographer for the San Francisco 49ers and the Oakland A’s, Zagaris is sports’ “inside-out shooter”.

In this video, Zagaris explains his approach to photography, how to “become what you shoot”, and focus on your subject. His unique tips on composition will help any photographer capture more raw emotion and energy in their photos.
