EL PASO -> BROOKLYN
TWO CITIES. ONE EYE.
Cosima's work began in the borderland.
Years spent photographing El Paso shaped an instinct for people, place, culture, and story - and built a body of work spanning journalism, community, sport, portraiture, and public life.
Today, Brooklyn is home.
New York brings a new landscape: artists, brands, music, culture, neighorhoods, and people constantly becoming something new.
The geography changed.
The instinct hasn't.
Look closer. Find the story. Make the photograph.

PHILOSOPHY
PHILOSOPHY
GOOD PHOTOGRAPHY SHOULD FEEL LIKE SOMETHING.
Not stiff.
Not generic.
Not the same photograph everyone else already has.
Cosima approaches each assignment with the instincts of a photojournalist and the polish of a commercial photographer - looking for an expression, gesture, light or split second that makes an image belong specifically to you.
Whether it is one person, one night, or an entire campaign, the goal is the same:
MAKE SOMETHING WORTH LOOKING AT.
