Dwayne is a photographer and artist based in the Baltimore-Washington DC area. Dwayne is known for his dramatic portraits that resonate emotions while giving the viewer a powerful insight into the lives of his subjects. While his images are often on the edge of any situation, photographing the situation is not nearly as interesting as photographing the edges of human emotions.
Dwayne has been a professional photographer for many years. He studied photography early on at the New England School of Photography located in Boston, MA. His work has been published in a variety of publications ranging from American Style, Old House Journal to Newsweek.
Dwayne views the art of photography as a subtractive process, a distilling of reality into a personal vision. As such he often uses the tools of modern photography - different film stocks, filters, digital enhancement - to try to capture in an image the emotions he felt at the moment he tripped the camera's shutter.
