[MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY] Photographing Maroon 5 LIVE with INSANE LIGHTING!!!

Look over my shoulder as I photograph the fantastic Maroon 5 and their incredible light show at The O2 in London to get an idea of what it's like being in the photo pit plus a little bit of what's going through my head while I'm shooting.
The sound's a bit whack because there's no tiny mic that's going to cope with that amount of sound that close but actually it's a pretty decent representation of what I hear with my earplugs in (protect your hearing people!) and the Insta360 One X2 isn't too happy when the lights go out but it adds energy to the craziness of the photo pit.
Super spoiled to only have three photographers in the pit as that's rarely the case so I definitely made the most of it as waving a mirrorless camera around in a crowded pit isn't likely to go down well with the other togs unless I'm super careful and pit etiquette is a whole other discussion.
