"Taylor Korzeniewski is a videographer who loves being photographed and many times I experiment with lighting techniques on him and many other friends of mine, that way, by the time I have celebrity photo shoots, I’ll be comfortable with what the lighting outcome and concept will be.” – Marvin Joseph

B&H BILD Expo 2023
B&H Photo Video Pro Audio celebrated their 50 year anniversary with BILD EXPO 2023 at the Javit’s Center, NYC. There was an incredible line-up of Industry Professionals, 4 stages with over 60 speakers, film workshops, a Camera Museum and Free Portfolio Reviews - all due to the extraordinary David Brommer, Director Large Scale Events, and the brilliant B&H Team for making all of this come together.
I was fortunate to share my Table with fellow Reviewer, the accomplished Washington Post Photographer Marvin Joseph @king_marvino, and his close friend Videographer, Taylor Korzeniewski @thewnk. Both talented, charming and very fun, they talked me into my first selfie!

This third chapter focuses on South Pacific Islanders impacted by rising oceans from climate change. The people in these photos, photographed underwater in the ocean off the coast of the Fijian islands, are representatives of the many people whose homes, land and livelihoods will be lost in the coming decades as the water rises.
