Bailey Mocerino

San Diego & Los angeles

I shot my first concert on a whim. No press pass, no plan, just me and my camera in the crowd - and I haven’t looked back since.

I’m Bailey, a Southern California based music photographer who shoots exclusively on 35mm film. I work primarily with my Canon T50 and love capturing the raw, unscripted energy of live music. From gritty dive bars to dreamy outdoor stages, I aim to freeze the moments that make you feel like you’re right there in the crowd. Sweat in the air, bass in your chest, heart racing.

My work is real, gritty, and nostalgic. I chase those honest moments that feel more like captured memories than media. I’ve photographed a range of indie artists in Southern California, and I’m especially drawn to up and coming musicians who want visuals that match their sound.

Currently, I’m building out my concert and EPK portfolio and looking to connect with artists who want something different than the typical digital polish. If you’re into analog grit and storytelling that lingers, I’d love to work with you.
