Grew up in West-Berlin during the Cold War. Got into photography in the early 80′s, after his
uncle got him a darkroom to develop his Super 8 art films. Enjoys painting as a hobby. Says a lot
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
(thankfully). Moved to NYC. Paid his dues learning from the best. Ended up in Ohio. Now
brands himself as a Midwest photographer. Has been in American Photography 18,19 and 22.

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.

He’s someone who likes to move. Spent five years sailing around the world. Ray’s love for action
photography began after shooting several world champion breakdance competitions. Always
working with dancers and athletes. Probably why MTV and Red Bull like to collaborate with him.

Just wrapped up his 366 | 08" project, shooting and exhibiting a different photo each day for an
entire (leap) year. Very interested in photographing blue collar workers, especially in relation to
the fields of green and renewable energy. 2009 PDN Photo Annual winner. See his blog for more.

Born in Manila. Moved to Ann Arbor when he was 12. Married to great woman from Poland. Has
two cats, one of whom ("EB", short for "Eight Ball") is 23 lbs.! Loves to eat and cook spicy foods.
Recommends the Philippines for your next vacation, especially the white sand beaches.

Interviewed by Charlie Rose about his book on children living with heart disease. Likes hot
chocolate, even though he lives in 80-degree weather. Also appealing: Lyle Lovett songs,
panoramic cameras, and games that appeal to 14 yr. old nerds. He’s good with deadlines.
