44. Olivia Da Costa: the musicians' photographer

Welcome back! A while back, we talked with photographer Olivia Da Costa (after our #gifted photoshoot) about her new career as a photographer specialising in musicians' portraits and what's led her to this point. Olivia shares with us her journey through music school and college, through a complex relationship with the cello and music, and into the pandemic when she founded her photography business. It's not often that we see a musician change career paths and still stay firmly rooted in the same circle of colleagues, so Olivia's story is particularly interesting! Thank you Olivia for your frankness and vulnerability with us, and also for hosting us in your Pinterest-esque flat and providing us with cups of tea to our hearts' content.Click here for transcriptOlivia's Instagram (@oliviadacostaphoto)Olivia's Facebook (@oliviadacostaphoto)Things Musicians Don't Talk About website: https://www.thingsmusiciansdonttalkabout.comTMDTA TwitterFacebookInstagramIf you would like to support our work, why not buy us a Kofi?
