Melanie Einzig

I’ve photographed events in New York and elsewhere for fourteen years. With a background in art and photojournalism I bring a love of aesthetics, an interest in people and the ability to tell a story to every event I document. I work very quietly and unobtrusively in order to record the most genuine moments in a natural way. Whether for my personal work, a publication, for an institution, or at a private event, I bring my full attention (eye and heart) to making the best possible photos.

My pictures have been printed in books about photography, in many national and international publications as well as in annual reports and newsletters for institutions and organizations. Here are some recent samples.

My personal work has been exhibited internationally and selected photos are part of the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, SF Moma’s e-space as part of the Blue Dot (one of the first art sites on the web), the Brooklyn Historical Society and other private collections. I received the Aaron Siskind Foundation fellowship for my work titled Midtown displayed at Zone Zero.
