Tom: 6′ 3", 205 pounds. Hobby: Shetland Pony racing. "Poor pony," he says. Competitive
swimmer in college. Says he’s spent the equivalent of over an entire year of his life (ie. 9,000
hours) in a pool. Has shot a lot of ultimate fighters recently, including the current world champ.

Distant relative of the British Royal Family, not that he’s bragging. Father is a professional
illustrator. Hails from Oxford, England, home of Radiohead. Experienced culture shock when
he moved to the U.S., to put it mildly. Now calls Atlanta home. Plays the guitar to let off steam.

Tina Williams / Washington DC
Kids

One of a handful of photographers who took part in Kodak’s beta digital program in the 90′s.
Faithful "deadhead", attended over 150 concerts back in the day. Was official photographer for
several rock festivals. Daughter’s baby book shows a lot of rock stars rubbing her pregnant tummy.

Grew up in West-Berlin during the Cold War. Got into photography in the early 80′s, after his

of his work is influenced by Flemish art from the 15th Century. Sees cooking as a time to relax.

Never quite liked the Boy Scouts. Only job outside of photography: cleaning swimming pools in
the OC. Once got his camera sucked under a Zamboni while shooting a US Figure Skating pairs
team. (His sync cord was white and camouflaged by the ice). Known for his celebrity imitations.

Photojournalism major, sidetracked with a potential music career. Stuck with photography

Went to kindergarten in Geneva, Switzerland. Learned to speak fluent French in a matter of
months. Can’t speak a lick of it now. In his 20′s, Max played bass in a punk band and toured the
country in a van. Shot his 2nd book on tattooing, which is being released soon. More on that here.

Our Photographer Attended High School With Marilyn Manson

Friday October 9th, 2009

Lincoln Barbour / Portland
Home & Garden / Still Life / Food & Drink / Architecture
www.lincolnbarbour.com
Rachel Hulin has a nice interview with Lincoln on her popular photography blog. Read the post
to see the grizzly bear skin rug wearing a fedora from Lebanon. In addition to what they discuss,
Lincoln enjoys traveling, cooking, running, cycling and snowboarding with his wife, Lauren.

Michael F. McElroy / Miami
Photojournalism / Portraiture / Corporate/ Landscape
www.mmcelroy.com
Not many people can say they went to high school with Marilyn Manson (Michael knew him as
the shy "Brian Warner"). Burn Magazine, curated by Magnum photographer David Alan Harvey,
recently showcased Michael’s emotional project about a family’s reaction to terminal cancer.

Aaron Kotowski / New York
Still Life / Corporate / Conceptual / Landscape
www.aaronkotowski.com
Communication Arts Photography Annual featured Aaron’s portrait of novelist Ross Campbell,
as posted on our blog. Aaron has a BFA in Photo-Illustration from R.I.T. When asked what his
hobbies are, he (half) jokes: "meeting client deadlines and delivering projects within budget."

Katherine Lambert / Washington DC
Corporate
www.katherinelambert.com
She’s owned 58 working cameras. As Katherine puts it, she "grew up in her daddy’s darkroom
in Memphis, Tennessee." She loves Elvis, Martin Luther King, white beer, and black-eyed peas.
Also boasts about making a mean pesto. She’s even done the Balinese Monkey Dance.
