Photographer #428: Eric T. White

Tuesday, January 17, 2012
Eric T. White, 1982, USA, is a photographer based in New York City. When he started art school he did not have a clear idea what he should study. When Eric's uncle died he inherited all of his cameras. This lead him to professionally persue a career in photography. He spent four years learning from photographer Christopher Griffith's technical expertise as his first assistant. His primary focus lies on portraiture and landscape photography. He describes his work as being "about capturing fleeting moments... specific moods and feelings." For his series National Defense, which consists of two chapters, he documented a fake arabic town in California and the border between the US and Mexico. Currently he is simultaneously working on a portrait series based on the Lower East Side, a black and white landscape series and his first book. The following images come from the series Least Likely To, Lake Harmony and National Defense.
