Sean Malyon

I COULD BE BUILDING BOATS Born by the sea, raised by a woodsman in, in a parallel universe I’m building boats In this world I confine people to a rectangular box and press a button. I’ve travelled a lot and sometimes people pay me to do it. My exploring led me to Bristol in 1998, I only intended to stay for a weekend but the city got a hold of me. However, I still don’t like cider. I started my career as a journalist, first on a newspaper, then on a golf magazine and as a freelance editor. I gave this up in 2006 to become a freelance photographer. Some people thought it was crazy but I now take pictures and people pay me for it. The boat building will have to wait.

I was born and reside in Colorado and also lived in New Mexico and Texas. I take frequent road trips throughout the West and often get lost in the mountains. When not shooting photos, I’m usually drinking coffee or entertaining my little guy, Levi. I make a mean carnitas and tequila is my drink, preferably añejo. I buy too many photo books. My latest purchase and current favorite is George Georgio’s American Parade. I speak English, Spanish and I’m learning Italian. I have to; my wife grew up in Sicily. I eat a lot of cannoli. Give me a call. Let’s grab an americano, high five, and better yet, work together.

Scott Nobles

I recently moved to Boston after 14 years in NYC. Besides photography I try to complete triathlons and attempt to play soccer. Sometimes I even venture outside in my Yankees cap. I had an amazing high school photography teacher. After graduation I moved to NYC. I assisted some great photographers – Including Frank W. Ockenfels III and Jill Greenberg. I interviewed for a job at Mr. Irving Penn’s studio. I told him he should go digital. I didn’t get hired. Figured it was time to strike out on my own. Along the way I got married to my beautiful wife. And now I have 3 amazing kiddos ages 9, 6, and 2. I’m training them in Photoshop. Hire me so you can see their amazing skills.

Irene Peña

"I am made up of everything I have seen", said Matisse at the end of his life, and this beautiful turn of phrase describes the way Irene Peña goes about crafting a picture. Through her untamed images runs a deep river of knowing and seeing, of filling up her mind with dresses,light and shadow, movement and haze. The photographer’s craft reaches back in time from the precise moment an idea came to be, sometimes in collaboration with a designer or an artist. Irene takes that idea and develops it with the trained eye of an editor: backgrounds, locations, lighting, models, colors, and poses begin to fall into place. There is always a pleasure in rediscovering her images once the shoot is over; in this new calm she continues her work of acutely observing, every little square a possibility of beauty. Born in Costa Rica, Irene began studying painting and graphic design, which morphed into a career in photography. She studied at Santa Monica College, in California, and after a stint as an advertising photographer, she turned to the world of fashion photography in Los Angeles. Right now, Irene is based in Costa Rica, where she continues her innovative work, using analog and digital cameras, with established designers and new Costa Rican talent.

Anas Cherur

Dubai based professional photographer / videographer with more than 10 years of experience, I began my career as a graphic designer. However, my passion for lights, shades and colors led to me morphing into a photographer. Light is something that has always fascinated me. The same location seen at different times under different light conditions leaves the photographer in me amazed. Most of my photography inspirations are from cinema; cinematographer Roger Deakins is my all time favorite. Some day I hope to possess a portfolio – and a professional attitude – similar to that great man! Over the last 8 years in the UAE, I’ve contributed my photography skills to magazines such as BBC Good Food, CitizenK, WatchTime, InsideOut, Friday, Gulf News and Fatfeat, to name a few.

Rocco Ceselin

I’m a lifestyle and portrait photographer from Italy, currently residing in Los Angeles. As a young boy I had a colorful vintage 1960s map of the United States above my bed. Each main region was represented with a little sketch or figure, very detailed, and I had dreams that one day I was going to be there and discover all those places myself. My passion for visual arts encouraged me to study graphic design and work as web designer in Italy. The opportunity became reality in 2002 when I moved from Italy and my journey started in San Francisco. In few years I ended up in various circumstances in the city of Angeles. The multicultural environment, the vibrant lifestyle and the excitement for embracing this new adventure of life has been my motivation for taking photographs. A passion I cultivated since I was a young teenager and has transformed my life and career. After lot of training and experience, I consider myself very fortunate.

I spent my days photographing editorial content and providing art direction for various publications under Community Journals brand.

Coming from a background in publications I make images that speak to the deeper story each brand is telling with their product or service.

John Olive

Hi, I’m John. I am a commercial and editorial photographer specializing in lifestyle, fashion, and beauty imagery. I enjoy telling stories with pictures of people. I grew up on the banks of the Tennessee River, in an area of northern Alabama best known for its legendary recording studios and its ample fresh water. The grandson of a boat builder, I spent most of my childhood splashing around in the latter. My love for being in, on, and near the water continues to this day and has led me to the shores of South Florida, where I live with my wife, Erin, and our daughter, Emilia. (You may even see water make an appearance in my work from time to time.) I picked up the camera professionally in 2009 and have not looked back. When not working on a project, I can be found scribbling in my notebook, playing guitar for an audience of two, debating the intricacies of life with a toddler, or predictably, somewhere near the water.

Kamil Bialous

Hi, I’m Kamil. I’m a photographer living and working in Vancouver, BC. I’m available for editorial, advertising, and personal commissions worldwide. I hold Canadian and EU passports. My photographic practice is centered around many things that don’t quite make perfect sense in my brain, such as the how and why of colour densities, how does the process itself influence the final photograph, and how to intersect graphic art with the visceral documentary experience. So when I’m working, I’m usually thinking about all these things at once. I’m currently particularly interested in projects that hold cultural or environmental significance, be they in advertising, editorial, or personal art. But I’m not saving any lives, so all that to say, I love my work, and I have a lot of fun with it.
