I had the privilege to shoot the Treasure Island Music Festival for Performer Magazine. The festival is arranged by Noise Pop and Another Planet Entertainment, both of which have long history in arranging festivals in San Francisco. The two day festival was split into party day for Saturday and more mellow lineup for Sunday. Here are some of my personal highlights.
Check more photos and review of the festival on December issue of Performer Magazine.
Originally from Finland, Miikka Skaffari is a photographer who fell in love with photography in 1993 while studying Audio Visual Communications in Finland. His goal was to start working with video and film, but once he got into a dark room and saw the magical transformation of a white piece of paper into a black and white photograph, he was sold.
His strongest suit in photography is in editorial, travel and lifestyle photography but he also enjoys shooting live music and products. He has a software engineering degree and background which partly explains his interest in the technical aspects of photography. He currently lives in San Francisco, but is available for photo assignments on short notice and is able to travel anywhere to take pictures you need or want.
