“Born a photographer, raised as a musician."
Madison Thorn is a third generation photographer born and raised in the music scene of St. Louis, MO; she has now lived in Nashville, TN for close to 5 years. Thorn brings her artistic view to all things music related such as promotional work, editorials, album artwork, live shows, and recording sessions.
In her 12 years working as a freelance photographer, Thorn has photographed an extensive list of artists that includes Dolly Parton, The Beach Boys, Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush, The Herculeons (John Cowan & Andrea Zonn), John Prine, Lyle Lovett, Wynonna Judd, Todd Snider, Mary Gauthier, Marty Stuart, Tommy Emmanuel, Frankie Valli, Jim Lauderdale, Them Vibes, Margo Price, Béla Fleck & The Flecktones, Poco, Oliver Wood, James McMurtry, and Graham Nash.
While Thorn takes great pride in her music work, she also has an immense passion for photojournalism; working closely with Hands on Nashville to document their heroic undertakings for the community and most recently documenting the Covenant School shooting protests, the sub-sequent unfolding of “The Tennessee Three”, as well as the Special Session.
During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, Thorn began her photo series “High Risk Humans”. The series intended to showcase the stories and faces of the broad range of individuals that fell into the “High Risk” health category; those that were most likely to be killed by Covid-19. Interviewing close to 50 individuals in the Nashville community, the series gained world-wide support; earning Thorn a nomination for “East Nashvillian of The Year” and creating a community built on empathy and kindness.
Thorn spent the majority of 2022 working for Dolly Parton on her forthcoming photo book, “Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones”, due to be on shelves mid-October. The book will highlight the music legend’s most iconic costumes across the span of her career and Thorn has over 60 of her own images of the garments included.
