Tentative Episode 11 shooting was a bust. Images didn’t happen and I went the whole day from bagel to gelato wondering why and if. Felt like a pure loss of time, maybe it was a lesson.
OTM Episode 8
I had never photographed with a 21mm before. I love how much information can be packed within a frame.
OTM | About the why
New York City makes me feel like no other place on Earth.
There’s something mysterious about it; like a massive UFO that crash-landed from another world and decided to stay.
At the same time, if an alien ever wanted a sample of humanity, I can't think of a more complete representation than this city.
Everything is here, and its opposite.
The best of everything. The worst of everything.
A place where dreamers arrive with nothing but hope…
And where decisions are made that ripple across the globe.
For photographers?
It’s the most photographed place in history—a blank canvas already filled with a million layers of meaning.
Everything’s been said about New York…
And that’s exactly what makes it so compelling.
So daunting.
So worth trying.
With these videos, my only goal is simple:
To make you feel what I feel.
Wherever you are, I hope some of that strange and beautiful New York energy reaches you.
