Aaron Kotowski

New York

Aaron Kotowski is the undisputed master of two critical life skills: stealing souls with his camera and writing about himself in third person. 

One of Aaron’s most meaningful assignments of 2023 was photographing Sir Salman Rushdie for the September cover of Le Point Magazine. No big deal. Aaron has long admired Rushdie and was honored to photograph the revered author after narrowly surviving a brutal assassination attempt the previous year. Rushdie is a rare prototype of man, who bends fate to his will. To nobody’s surprise, the shoot was an unmitigated success. 

It is unknown why distinguished corporations and magazines hire Kotowski to photograph prominent and influential people, but the man cannot be stopped.
