These Photographies

Tim Mantoani opened his own San Diego studio in 1995. His credits include Sports Illustrated, Newsweek and ESPN The Magazine, as well as ad campaigns for Coca-Cola, EA Sports and Coors Brewing. Today, when Tim’s not shooting on assignment, he’s documenting venerable lens men who have collectively captured decades of culture and celebrity with their own cameras. Legendary rock photographers Jim Marshall and Ethan Russell have sat for 20 x 24-inch Polaroid portraits, as have Walter Iooss, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, Pete Turner, Mary Ellen Mark, Elliott Erwitt and Roberto Salas. Tim’s enthusiasm for the medium of photography is undiminished by the changes he’s seen during his career. For him it’s not work so much as a mission: He sees the story there in each face, and in each place and lives to gives them voice through his work.

Jeff Sciortino lives to make great photographs. It’s his passion, and for more than 10 years, he’s done it for leaders like Abbott Laboratories and Zomba Records, Rolling Stone Magazine and Sony. He’s shot all over the world, capturing moments of life, photographing celebrities and athletes, executives and business people, and everyday, average folks.
