Rob Stephenson
New York City, New York
AK: Please introduce yourself: What is your name, where are you from, what do you do?
RS: My name is Rob Stephenson, I live in Fort Greene, Brooklyn New York with my wife and 2 kids. I work as a photographer and run my own drum scanning and archiving service out of my studio in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
AK: What is your relationship with photography? How did you get into it and what keeps you interested or motivated?
RS: I had various film P&S cameras as a kid that I messed around with and was gifted a really early digital camera in the late 90s. I think it was around 2 megapixels. Soon after, I upgraded to a slightly nicer DSLR, and eventually transitioned to shooting with a view camera. I worked for Joel Meyerowitz for several years and that experience really intensified my relationship with photography and led to what I am doing today.
AK: What are you currently working on, and — if there is — what is your next project or journey?
RS: I’m reluctant to define my next project, though I have been shooting quite a bit recently. I continue to canvas the outer boroughs of the city and have am exploring a couple of themes that that are slowly coalescing into a more finished form.
AK: Thank you, Rob!
