Image making as a photographer is a creative voyage I take everyday. 

Born, raised and educated (Pratt Institute) in NYC, made me aware of 

the visual treats of life. Capturing a city's bustle, nature's beauty, the

human face and body form, land and seascapes, as well as mankind's

artistry in design and architecture - each offering beauty and grace, 

chaos or darkness, raunch or richness, harmony and serenity - has

been a life's passion.


The site is dedicated to street and studio work. Images of the urban

landscape, structures, faces in a crowd, the still life, posed models,

among other subjects I photograph are addressed in the studio with

post-capture work. It is here that I lay out a digital canvas, and render

imagery to further express myself. 


Individual limited edition prints - such as "Lila", which was on display at

the de Young Museum - are available for sale. So, too, are Collector's

Portfolios, including: "Urbano, "GeoDeo", and a prose poem which has

my imagery and words, titled "The Back Hand Of My Sugar". 


Images are always printed individually in the studio - working with 

Archival Pigment Inks on 100% Natural Rag and other Museum papers -  

each individually signed and dated.  


I am pleased to present my work, and welcome your interest and

patronage. 


Thank you,

Hal Brandes
