Rodney Smith - Ilya Tetelman















Rodney Smith is a celebrated fashion and art photographer. His career began with a fellowship he received to spend time in Jerusalem. Upon his return, he had a photo book published from his journeys. He was offered to lecture on photography at numerous Universities including Ivy Leagues like Columbia. He refused all and traveled the world instead, afterwards returning to Yale University to get a degree in Divinity.

Rodney Smith has also since become a staple in fashion photography. With his imaginative and almost mythical photographic style, he has been commission by the top publisher and advertisers. The photo in the middle of the set, with a pyramid shape created from umbrella wielding fashionables was a commissioned work for The New York Times, and was taken on a floating barge in the waters surrounding New York City. He has won 75 awards and is collected and exhibited around the world.
