Bryan Lasky
Contributing Photographer
Bryan Lasky has been working as a professional photographer since 2013. He specializes in live music and event photography, but has done the occasional wedding here and there. He fell in love with photography while teaching and traveling in Shanghai for two years. He started his career in Albany when he came back, covering the local scene as it grew, and has since moved to Boston. He has been on the festival photo teams for Boston Calling, Bonnaroo, and The Summit. He has worked closely with Wild Adriatic and has toured with them. Photography has taken him all over the country and whether there is a show happening or not, you’ll most likely find a camera in his hand. When he isn’t behind the lens, you’ll probably find him running, as he has done a few marathons and half marathons.
