The Fashion Image and The Business of Fine Art Photography look at the creative and professional realities of a contemporary photographic practice, from image-making and production, to markets, exhibitions, and institutions, in a global context.
His most recent book, Twenty One Summers, co-authored with Derrick Connell, explores the amount of time we have in life, the goals we hope to achieve, and the Blind Spots that often unknowingly keep us from reaching them. From Japan and Nepal to small rural US towns and large cities, the book is brought to life by the stories of a diverse group of 17 people whose stories could be yours. Learn from their stories and, perhaps, begin writing your own.
