Featured Artist
Neil Shapiro

We are excited to introduce Neil Shapiro, who uses photography to capture the magnificence of nature. To achieve this, Shapiro shoots “wide open” for a shallow depth of field, emphasizing focal points. His photographs are direct and crisp, leaving no room for ambiguity.

Recently, he has been experimenting with placing a visual-emotional factor into his images through Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) to evoke nostalgia, gently blurring pixels to infuse images with a softer quality. Shapiro’s aim is to address his audiences on the importance of the protection and preservation of our planet. He hopes that his images play a small role in giving people reasons to keep fighting for the environment.

Neil Shapiro is a Director of Photography and more recently a Fine Arts Photographer. As Director of Photography, Neil has photographed many iconic national TV commercials. He has worked on over 2000 commercials, 10 short films, 50 music videos, and 2 motion pictures. When Covid caused a work stoppage, Neil channeled his creative energy towards photography. He will have exhibitions in New York, Miami, Milan, Paris, Venice, Barcelona, and Monaco this year. Neil interestingly is an autodidact and never attended art school.

“Throughout my career as a Director of Photography I’ve cultivated some specialized skills. Commercial cinematography requires the ability to photograph any person, place or thing in an interesting way in any circumstance. My fine art photography tries to showcase the same aptitude. I mostly enjoy photographing the natural world but because of my background in cinematography, find many other genres compelling. My hope is that my photos are both appealing and have an emotional impact.”
