Miami, Florida, 1995
I’m really looking forward to being in Miami this December 1-6 for Art Miami, the official launch of my new book “It’s About Time”. See you there!
Additionally, this work is on show at @cameraworkgallery until November 14th.
Can anyone from Miami tell how much this landscape has changed?

When we first met in 2011, @krisjenner and @kendalljenner “dropped by” the studio.
To this day it’s still one of the best wing shots I’ve ever done, and it makes me smile every time I see it.
The most fun moments in your life only get better with time.
Happy (slightly belated!!) Birthday, KJ!!

The best partnerships take time.
@mirandakerr and I have been making pictures together for the better part of two decades. Every time I see her, her belief in @koraorganics is exactly what it was on day one.
That kind of belief is contagious.
Somewhere in the middle of that day, we also made this: the October cover of Stellar.

When asked what we do in studio all day I’d say mostly we just play. Like when Italo pulls out a wig he happened to have in his kit.
Happy birthday @candiceswanepoel !!

Berlin, you did it again.
I’ve been showing with Camera Work for over 25 years and I still get nervous before an opening.
Then the doors open and it all just feels right.
Friday was that. The room was full of people I love and people who traveled across the world to be there. Thank you. I mean that!
@adrianalima , thank you for coming and for everything we’ve made together over the years. Seeing our work side by side on that wall, with you standing next to it, was a real moment for me.
To the collectors, my family, my friends: thank you for making Berlin feel the way it did.
It’s About Time is on at @cameraworkgallery until November 14.
Then I’ll see you at Art Miami, December 1-6!

Berlin - so great to be back. My new collection, It’s About Time, opens Saturday at Camera Work Gallery. Thirty years of my work, together in one room for the first time.
Please join me, I’ll be there Saturday at 2PM signing pre-release copies of the book at the gallery. More to come this week.
And a special call out to my friend @lilyaldridge who was willing to climb that rock and then fight me with a light saber right after!

Happy 20th Anniversary on “The Dutchess”! @fergie
14 Sep 2026
Today marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.
You will never forget where you were on that day, I have a burned imprint in my mind.
It just so happened that I was able to capture this history.
Thank you to all the first responders, volunteers and civilians who’s risked their lives.
We will always remember those who lost their lives.
We will never forget.
This image was taken at 9:07AM as the first tower was struck.
@cameraworkgallery is exhibiting Never Forget: September 11th, 2001, now.
11 Sep 2026
I was in my apartment in Manhattan, about a kilometer from the World Trade Center, when my assistant Mia told me to come outside. I looked up and saw the smoke. I picked up my medium format Pentax 67 camera with a 165 lens, almost without thinking, went to the roof, and started shooting. For a moment it didn’t feel real — more like a film set than something happening a kilometer away.
I went through one roll of film and had to decide whether to reload. Then reality arrived. I put the camera down where I was standing and left it there. The first thing did was go looking for my partner,
who was two kilometers away, seven months pregnant with my daughter.
One frame holds the exact time it was made: 9:07. I’ve carried the same imprint in my mind ever since.
When I was asked to be part of an exhibition on this subject, I hesitated. Is it right to show something this painful? I think it is. History needs many perspectives of the same event, the good and the bad.
Never Forget: September 11, 2001 is showing at CAMERA WORK, Berlin, from September 5 through October 2, 2026 — see it in the gallery or on the virtual gallery at camerawork.
