Noa Grayevsky
1. Can you introduce yourself and talk about how you got into photography?
I am Noa Grayevsky, an award-winning worldwide photographer based in New York with a focus on fashion and music industries. My campaign and editorial photography has been featured in a variety of magazines and newspapers.
My images which resonate with the gritty glamor of early rock-and-roll reflect a highly collaborative approach that strives to break down any walls between artist and subject.
