Artist's Statement
A collection of photographs progressing from before, during and after the attacks on New York on September 11th, 2001. Not knowing what else to do that Tuesday morning, I grabbed my camera and didn't stop shooting. After taking hundreds of photos over a period of six years, I share the most memorable with you online. Visit my website at www.mackephotography.com to view the entire collection.
Resume
Chris Macke's photography career is the result of his life long interest in the arts. Chris grew up in Cincinnati, OH, where he was a student at The School for Creative and Performing Arts starting in the sixth grade. There he spent seven years surrounded by all aspects of art and performance. As a gift for his 15th birthday, Chris's father, who is also a photographer, bought him his first camera. He has been shooting ever since. His love of the arts led him to New York City in 1999.
His large collection of photographs from September 11th have been seen at The New York Historical Society and internationally through various venues, including the Here Is New York exhibits. All of his photographs were donated to help raise money for families of victims.
Aside from his documentary work, Chris works as a photographer of actors. His clients have appeared in over 30 Broadway productions.
