Cover and multi-page spread in Seattle Met magazine

Uncategorized

Seattle Met ran a large spread of the portraits I made this spring during the height of the first wave of the pandemic in the Seattle area. They also created a series of nice illustrations for multiple covers of this issue, including the portrait seen above.

The photographs highlight frontline staff at area hospitals. The magazine also commissioned me to photograph the University of Washington Virology Lab, which led the region and the country in churning out test results and public health information in the early days of the pandemic.

Look for copies of the July/August issue of the magazine in the coming days. The online treatment looks great, too!
