The Self-Portrait Project
"Glorified Photo Booth"
I've set up a two-way mirror in my studio and have friends, family, and new acquaintances come and shoot themselves - while looking at their reflection in the mirror - using a remote trigger. An exploration in vanity, our projections of ourselves, and the true nature of images.

The Artist

Andy grew up shooting with his father's old Kodak Instamatic 110 camera, taking his first shots at 8 years old of pigeons at a zoo. He's since graduated to more sophisticated equipment + subjects and puts his assets to work primarily taking pictures of people and places. He has assisted and learned from prominent photographers such as Richard Phibbs, Gray Scott, Rames Xelhuantzi, and Raymond Patrick. An award-winning photographer, Andy calls the Lower East Side of New York his home.
