"Get References" for Gary Regester Portraits of Artists, Actors, Authors and Auteurs A gift from age and experience: We learn that people only work with people that they already trust.  Or that they only work with people whom someone, who knows someone, already trusts  -  so, it's good advice to "Get references!".   So, as I am writing this page - beyond my portfolio - why should someone chose me as their portrait photographer against the milling masses? Here are some references and reasons: -working with artists, museums and installations- examples:  Ed Ruscha, Venice Biennale 2005 Ed Ruscha Studio, contact: Gregg Heine e: gjheine(at)mac.com t:+1310 922 3473 Michele D.

I work and travel very compactly (and inexpensively, "Y" class & YMCAs) using small format still film and digital/video; medium/view film cameras.  Lighting with portable and studio flash or cool UV-free daylight fluorescent. Specializing in portraits in problematic environments (within buildings and museums or outofdoors).  Thank you, Gary
