Downtown Portraits – Dietmar on His Roof
The downtown portraits are moving along well. Recently we paid a visit to artist/photographer Dietmar Busse’s studio on Lexington Avenue, had a look at his work and his new book, then climbed up to the rooftop to shoot this portrait.

A studio visit is a must and perhaps you can’t leave without falling in love with one or more of his pieces.
