Having recently shot the cover for Alison Wonderland’s bangin’ debut album Run, it’s been a long and arduous journey for the Los Angeles based shooter. After gaining a humble first gig filming high school football, he “would literally sit on Craigslist all day and refresh constantly, sending out hundreds of emails a week.”
Well, his persistence is nothing short of admirable and it’s definitely paid off. He’s since traveled the world to shoot festivals including HARD Summer, Stereosonic, SXSW, Coachella, Mountain Sounds and everything in between – including Skrillex’s birthday party.
Here, Donslens’ presents us with some of his adventures – a nice balance between onstage action, backstage antics and more intimate moments with artists. Scroll below, and yes, you’re gonna get FOMO:
