CONCERT
Photography

Touring artists. Editorial coverage. Images built for media and marketing.

Photographs

I started my career in the pit—photographing Van Halen live on tour. That set the standard early, and it’s how I’ve approached this work ever since.

 

I’m also a musician, so I don’t walk into a show guessing. I study performances, know the set flow, and understand the cues—when the lights hit, when the artist steps forward, when the moment is about to happen. I’m not reacting to the show. I’m prepared for it.

Photographer Tom Prather of The Blue Wave Video Production Agency has been a photographer in Maryland, Virigina, and Washington DC specializing in concert photopraphy, sports photography and portrait photography

From arenas to small venues, I work within the rhythm of the performance—moving with it, not chasing it. The goal is simple: capture images that feel right and are actually usable.

 

Through 25+ years running The Blue Wave Video Production Agency, I’ve built long-standing relationships with media, news, and social outlets. That matters, because the work doesn’t just get delivered—it gets placed and seen.

 

What I provide isn’t just coverage. It’s content that artists, teams, and media can actually use—press-ready, on time, and built for real-world distribution.

BUILT FOR THE PIT.

DELIVERED FOR THE PRESS.
