Portraits of Steven Ogg: The Iconic Star of 'The Walking Dead' & 'GTA V

August 06, 2024 in Selah, Celebrity, Featured Sitting, New York, Los Angeles, Portraiture, Top Moment, You Tube

Last week, I had the privilege of photographing actor Steven Ogg at my Los Angeles studio for my ongoing Selah Project. It's not unusual for photographers to be inspired by other forms of art, and as many of you may have noticed, my portraiture is heavily influenced by Renaissance Italian masters like Rembrandt, Caravaggio, Titian, and Ribera. Drawing inspiration from these iconic artists, I strive to masterfully recreate the light, atmosphere, and tones of classical portrait paintings in my work. This influence is particularly evident in Selah, my latest and most ambitious project to date.
