“What does it take to produce a photo shoot for the nation’s top magazines? What goes onbehind the scenes during pre-production, on the shoot and in post-production? How do those production details scale up if you’re shooting eight, twenty-three or thirty-five subjects? And what are the key technology pieces that enable the pace of editorial work?
Art Streiber is one of the best-known, most-prolific portrait and entertainment photographers in the country. Over the past 17 years, he’s been commissioned by every major American culture-oriented magazine, from Vanity Fair, Entertainment Weekly, and Rolling Stone to Esquire, Wired, and Time, resulting in an archive of portraiture of the most intriguing newsmakers at the start of the 21st century.
