so my friends are starting a band, and I'm going to be the designated photographer since I'm the only one with a good camera. I only realized today that I've never really taken pictures of people/bands, mostly landscapes and all that bullshit. Chances are the band is going to suck balls, but I'd rather the pictures didn't. Anyone have any kind of tips or anything for this type of photography?pic unrelated, although makes me want to start a band about hockey.EXIF data available.
