PORTRAITURE & CELEBRITY PHOTOGRAPHY May 2014

Russ Quackenbush creates visual images of humanity that reflect the qualities we cherish most in each other. In his portraiture, he gently documents the relics of a subject's life experiences as they unfold and present themselves in the emotions of their face, the language of their body, and the energy of their being.

Russ' photography gives us license to laugh, play, rejoice, or to mourn. It is through his images that we are led respectfully and thoughtfully into the life of another.

Currently, he has been working on Microsoft’s 'Honestly' campaign since October and is wrapping up his short documentary on a band called 'British Dependency'. Russ was invited on the bus for a short span of the trip and created a series of images that can be seen on the website, along with a short.
