Street Photography nominee

In late 2015 my fascination with symmetrical subjects began and I decided to embark on my year long urban symmetry photography project called Symmetry of New York. I took the first picture for this project on January 7, 2016 and continued daily through January 6, 2017. During this time I photographed 366 symmetrical subjects in and around New York City completing my project Symmetry of New York. I focused on diverse structures and perspectives of architecture as well as different views of the city enhanced by mood, harmony, proportion and balance. Each day I traversed the city going from neighborhood to neighborhood and all five boroughs in search of symmetrical beauty. On these daily shoots I had to be prepared for weather, lighting or any other random occurrence which either hindered or helped my work.

I am passionate about photographing symmetrical images, particularly in architecture, and love to capture that which catches not only my eye but my soul. The best way for me to express this dreamlike, surreal and abstract world was by using black and white photography. I created this portfolio by capturing the impressive and serene details of historical landmarks and unique urban buildings in my daily, year long quest for this one of a kind collection.
