Interview: SCOTT STRAZZANTE

A Photo a Day:

Since October 2001, besides a couple studio shoots, I have not used a strobe once. Why? First, I want to document reality and that includes the light, If something happens in a dank dark room, I don’t want it to look pretty, I want it to look dank and dark.

I also am very confident in my ability to find light in low light situations. I shoot a lot of photos and if 98 out of 100 have motion blur, it always seems that the two sharp ones are the best moments.

Another reason is that I hate using a strobe in a situation where I am trying to be stealth. The less attention I get the better.Here.
