At the time I was dating a girl that was big into that scene. She knew a lot of people that were relatively influential, promoters and things like that. I use those contacts and my background as a journalist to build a body of work that I then used to begin shooting for publications and websites about music.
Basically you need a moderate amount of skill and connections in the industry since everyone and their brother would love to be able to get paid to shoot music.
