Music
and
photography


I took a passion to photography from a very young age, a passion that was combined with a love for music, especially rock music. As such the relationship between music and photography is an essential part of my life.
"To this day, if I go to a rock concert without a camera I feel that I have neglected something important."
It is my belief that music continues to live on even after the death of those who composed it. There are moments, expressions, feelings related to those who makes music that will exist forever and it is my dream to catch this moment, expression and feeling in a camera frame to ensure that the music can live forever."
In the words of Henri Cartier Bresson, it is just an impression that pictures are taken with the camera, pictures are taken with the eyes, the heart, the head, and, in my case, with a love for music.

ABOUT ME


Jill Furmanovsky, Photographer
ROCKARCHIVE Founder

Paolo Brillo is a man with a mission: to take the best live pictures of the world's greatest musicians while they are truly lost in music. What makes Paolo different to press photographers, who are herded in the pit for three warm up songs and then shooed out, or those fans with their horrible phone cameras disturbing everyone, is that Paolo is invisible and serious about his art...

Derek Barker, Editor-in-chief
ISIS Magazine

What can I say about Paolo Brillo?
His photographs speak for themselves and they do so eloquently. His great passion for rock music shines through in all his work. Paolo has been Staff Photographer at ISIS Magazine for many years and although I know his work well, his photographs never fail to amaze me...
