About

Shooting from
the inside out.

Don Jilla is a Pittsburgh based documentary photographer. He documents life in all its forms and movement: live music, underground culture, news, events, portraits, and the people and animals in between. Seven years embedded in the scenes he shoots.

Access is earned, not requested. Every frame is from inside the room, on stage, in the pit, in the crowd. The work doesn't observe subculture from a distance, it is made from within it.

A consistent presence on the festival and touring circuit. Available for editorial commissions, event coverage, and on-site travel photography.
