A photographic collaboration between two friends who have been working in Coney Island for many years.
Two visions of the same place. Matt shoots black and white rectangles with his Leica, while Mike shoots color squares with his Hasselblad.

I have been a commercial and editorial photographer since 1979. During that time I have always worked on personal projects that focus on the people that we normally walk right by on our daily rounds. Real people in real places doing what they do.
I try to make order out of chaos by exposing the moment that defines the physical manifestation of the people and places that I most relate to on an emotional level.

Wonderful, exciting place to photograph. Thoroughly enjoyed your book. I grew up in Brighton Beach and am now a photographer in St.Louis. I appreciate the visit with the Past.
