RockersNYC TV: Shawn Mortensen's Interview


RockersNYC is proud to present an in-depth interview with one of the talents of our times, photographer Shawn Mortensen. This episode focuses on Mortensen's experiences photographing Sting, Jamaica's largest reggae festival, during the infamous Super Cat and Ninja Man battle of 1991, and also his work with hip-hop legends like Snoop Dog and Tupac. The defining characteristic of Mortensen's photography is his ability to bring the viewer into the subject's world, without a sense of voyeurism.
