(Experimenting with) Photographing Fashion

I photograph men. Sometimes, I photograph fashion, mostly men’s fashion. Over the years I’ve shot several teen fashion shows for Hudson Pride Connections, in Jersey City, a few years back, and then the new collection of a (then) up-and-coming young designer in New York City. More recently, I shot the HIV Warriors prevention campaign for ASC (AIDS Service Center), in New York City–a fantastic experience photographing and connecting with equally fantastic individuals. Then I experimented with some of my own personal projects that included fashion.

Lately, I’ve been shooting fashion, again, in particular men’s fashion and fashion as protest art, especially when it comes to HIV and AIDS activism.

Here are a few samples from my fashion photography work in progress:
