Brent Goldman
“Brent Goldman is a prolific force in music photography.”
- Photographer Tonight
I was born to be a music photographer. I live for live music and started taking pictures at summer camp as a kid and have always had a camera with me since. When I realized I could combine the two, it was like everything suddenly made sense.
I’ve done both van and bus toured with Magic City Hippies and Ripe, and worked directly with amazing artists like Beck, Tame Impala, Noah Kahan, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Brittany Howard, Alexandra Cooper (Call Her Daddy), Two Door Cinema Club, The Kooks, Mt Joy, Laufey, and many more.
Artists like Dua Lipa, Kacey Musgraves, Caroline Polachek, Conan Gray, Beabadoobee, Willow Smith, Jojo, Jack Antonoff and Bleachers, CHVRCHES, Lord Huron, Japanese Breakfast, Genesis Owusu and many more have all featured my work.
My work has been featured on the cover of Pollstar, and in TIME Magazine, PEOPLE, Rolling Stone, Sterogum, Pitchfork, Billboard, Consequence of Sound, The Hollywood Reporter, SPIN Magazine, UPROXX, The Boston Globe, Boston Magazine, and Premier Guitar Magazine.
I've photographed for Beach Road Weekend, Courtney Barnett’s Here and There Festival, TD Garden in Boston, Bowery Boston, and Live Nation New England.
In 2022 and 2023, I was nominated for Live Music Photographer of The Year by the Boston Music Awards and received bronze at the 2024 International Photography Awards in concert photography.
While I’m based in Boston, I’m happy to travel within New England, across the country, abroad or go to space.
I’m available for tour or one-off bookings, so feel free to shoot me an email.

What My Clients Say
“Our team has been working with Brent for a little over a year now. We met him when we had an artist playing in the Boston area, and he covered the show for us. Since then, we have been contracting with Brent anytime we have an artist in his area. He is consistently one of the top photographers we work with in any market. Would highly recommend contacting Brent for any of your tour photography.”
-Evan Tomlinson, Red Light Management (Brittany Howard, Grouplove, Amos Lee)
“Brent is fantastic. Professional, punctual, great to work with and his creative eye never disappoints delivering what we need to market the event for the future and increase sponsor revenue. He is our first and last call whenever a client needs a professional photographer. Whether it’s a black-tie event or a major music festival, we trust Brent to deliver what we need and keep the clients happy.”
— Joe Chambers, CK Communications/Beach Road Weekend Music Festival
“I got so many notes and comments about how great your photos were. I’m handing out your business card over here!! THANK YOU!”
— Lierin Pena, Manager for The Brook and The Bluff
“Brent is amazing. He is incredibly talented, has a great eye and is very dependable. He's also easy to work with, has quick turnarounds and is just an all around good guy. We have hired Brent a handful of times and have loved his work every time and also we've genuinely enjoyed getting to know him. Any chance we get, we'll be bringing Brent on board for our photo needs."
— Brittany Durdin, Manager for Emily Wolfe
“My greatest fear with Brent is that the music business will come to know his ample talents and spectacular personality and he will become in such high demand, I'll no longer be able to hire him for my acts. He is a true asset to my touring and marketing team, and a great guy as well.”
— Brad Desmond, Manager for Magic City Hippies
