Merisi is a New York based photographer. At the age of fourteen, he picked up his very first camera, a Pentax K1000. His first interests were in portraits and scenic stills. It was not until his late teens when he discovered the delightful gift a portrait can convey; he then became a devoted portrait shooter. Merisi retains an aura of mystery, making him an absolute outlier to his work. His style, like his lifestyle, may be minimalistic, but his approach executes with military precision. His nostalgia for analog cameras and knowledge of the mechanics places him in a masterful class all by himself. Images that are so rich in detail, diversity, and contrast, will indeed leave the world enraptured for years to come.
