Références en tant qu'assistant / Carrière
I'm completely self-taught and worked initially in various professional rental studios in Manhattan which led to a number of freelance assisting jobs with many notable photographers such as Steven Klein, Albert Watson, Jean-Baptiste Mondino, Peter Lindbergh, Nadav Kander, Mary-Ellen Mark, Wayne Maser, Mario Sorrenti, Frank Ockenfels III and many others. I was full-time second, then first assistant to Rolling Stone chief photographer, Mark Seliger for 15 months and then full-time first assistant to Annie Leibovitz for 2.5 years. I have strong productions skills domestically and abroad and consider myself adaptable, detail-oriented, punctual, courteous and quiet.
