Lisa Pollack is a born and bred New Yorker, photographer and advocate.
New York City inspires Lisa as an artist. With the energy and excitement throughout New York, life is something to be seen, felt and experienced. As a photographer, Lisa loves capturing emotion and energy on camera, connecting to her subjects – what they see and feel, what she sees and feels. Stories through imagery. Her photography is concentrated on music, architecture, street and advocacy.
Lisa’s inspiration and passion is found within her love for people, music, books, photography, poetry, philosophy, art, films, world culture, and travel. These all feed Lisa’s mind, heart, soul and creativity — translates through her craft — reflected within her work.
Among photographers, Lisa loves the works of Robert Doisneau, Jacques-Henri Lartigue, Herb Ritts, Annie Leibovitz, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastião Salgado, João Silva, Robert Capa, Dorothea Lange, Rankin, and Willy Ronis.
