A couple of months back I got to shoot my 411 packaging with Robert Ammirati. I’ve worked with him before and he’s just one of those amazing people to me. He’s been shooting product and fashion photography in New York for about 25 year or so. He has owned a studio/apartment in SoHo for about the same time, back when even Crosby Street was not filled with boutique shops. I told him that I didn’t have a lot of money to give him for the shoot, but to let me know if he could give me an afternoon stop by. He skates and surfs with his son and daughter also, so I put together a package of 5Boro boards, 411 and Uprise video’s and some t-shirts for his kids. We had Dom’s for lunch and shot the shit. I always pick his brain about New York back then and he’s always got good stories for days. He works hard, but also knows when not to work and go surfing. I like that.
