Leia, 16, New York City

Leia fell in love with music when she first heard ‘We Will Rock You’ by Queen, when she was just 2 years old. As soon as she could, she started going to gigs all over New York and in her Freshman year she just happened to take her camera to a gig she was adamant to remember… After this, taking photos of bands and artists at gigs became something she did every chance she got.You can see more of her work here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/leiajospe/

Her photography has already been featured in NME Magazine [uncredited unfortunately] and Blender, a music blog and website. She also regularly works for brooklynvegan.com; her photos are up there pretty much every day. She has travelled to London and Paris to take photos for people and interns at a stock photo company, photoshelter.com. Phew. Busy, brilliant lady.
