April

This is April. Shot for an ongoing series I am working on.


Natalie & Marilyn

Melissa does many different characters on Hollywood Blvd. I have had the pleasure of taking pictures of her posing as some of these characters over the past year or so. Most recently I shot her as Natalie Wood, and again as Marilyn Monroe (See my website for the past photos of her as Marilyn.

New Mexico

Rob and I took a mini road trip from El Paso, TX to different areas of New Mexico at the beginning of the month. The drives in between our destinations were often more interesting to me than the places themselves.

Feature in PIG Magazine

PIG Magazine, a mag based in Italy, did a feature on my Hollywood Character Series for their new issue.

Italian:

"Il mondo dei sosia mi ha sempre affascinato.
Sull’Hollywood Blv, a Los Angeles, รจ possibile delle persone che per sbarcare il lunario, sono pagate per posare incessantemente come
sosia di qualche personaggio famoso. Ma chi sono costoro? hanno una vita propria o sono destinati a impersonare qualcun altro per
sempre, fino a spersonalizzarsi totalmente? Tamar Levine le ha fotografate, sottolineando con la luce la tristezza e la noia di una tale
professione, in questa serie di ritratti davvero belli, per quanto infelici. Date un’occhiata al suo sito: www.tamarlevine.com"

Translated:

"i have always been fascinated by the world of look-alikes.
On Hollywood blvd, in LA, it is possible to find lookalikes that do it as a job.
Who are these people? do they have their own lives or are they destined to live as somebody else, forever?
Tamar Levine took a series of portraits (beautiful, yet depressing) , using light to remark the sadness and boredom of such a "job".
