Editorial & Portrait Photography – Mitch Altman

At the end of last year I was hired by Hackspace to photograph the inventor of TV-B-Gone, Mitch Altman, at his home in Berlin.

It was by a long way my favourite assignment of 2019. Mitch was incredibly welcoming, a great guy to hang out with, and very accommodating with the photography. He programmed some LEDs to drape over himself for some of the portraits, and a friend of his, Raphael, also helped me with my strobe light. Tres bien.
