Martin Ingber: "This world is full of magic: a vast variety of people, amazing environments, and those ‘decisive moments’ that vanish in an instant, only to be replaced by a constantly changing flood of new and different ones. Most of these will pass unseen; but some may be captured by a sharp-eyed street photographer, who just happens to be at the right place at the right time.

Joseph Podlesnik is trained mainly in drawing and painting and it is this experience which seems to influence his approach to photography. For Podlesnik, the camera lens depicts perspective too easily, which is why he captures and makes photographs which often frustrate readable perspectival space. For him, the photographic image is not only a window through which to see the visible world, but also a maker of flat surfaces which stunt or block logical space.
Andrea London is an emerging New York based photographer whose work is informed by her background both as a psychotherapist and equestrian. Initially, equestrian matters dominated her photographic interest, but more recently she has broadened her practice to other subjects and genres. Her artistic goal is to capture images which express a personal view that resonates with others. Her photographs have been exhibited in galleries in the US and abroad, and published in several photography journals and books.

Specializing in creative portraiture and cocktail photography, his work has been used to create content for brands throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens. His work has been published in children's books, on billboards, as well as articles in HuffPost, MarketWatch, ShoutoutLA, and Forbes.
