Hilary Peters Photography

Hilary Peters is a Southern California photographer who specializes in concert and musician photography. She has had a passion for music since she was a young child. Once she realized playing an instrument was difficult for her small, child-like hands, she found other ways of immersing herself in sound. In 1997, Hilary had her first experience with a live music event. Surrounded by screaming pre-teens, teens, and moms pretending to be there for their daughters, she realized there were many aspects to a concert, not just the cute, long-haired boys singing in perfect harmony. It was that summer she realized the world was as visually diverse as it was audibly diverse.

Music and photography have been a central part of Hilary’s life for over 20 years. She found her path combining her two passions after photographing Kansas, Styx, and Foreigner in some of her first Southern California concerts. Hilary is currently in her final year at Brooks Institute in Ventura, California.
