About Andrew Prokos
  • Andrew Prokos was born in Chicago IL, in 1975.
  • Education
  • Prokos art appears in museums in Toronto, New
    York, and Washington D.C. and hotels and some
    adds.
  • Prokos is known for his excellent pictures with
    cities, and the amount of versatility he is
    able to do, and work with them. He likes to take
    pictures of the same thing, but just at different
    times of the day and seasons of the year, and
    with this amount of patience, the outcome is
    incredible. He also take pictures of Corporate
    Art, architect and other commissions such as
    adds.
  • Prokos actually started out as a model, but it
    wasnt for him so he just bought his first Nikon
    300 for fun, and traveled Europe where he took
    some neat pictures, he decided that he wanted to
    open up his own business back home with selling
    his pictures and just getting the word out that
    he is a individualistic photographer. It took a
    lot of time, effort and money but two years
    later, he got his first commission request from
    Tiffany and Co. From there on, he was asked to
    take pictures of buildings, some landscapes and
    mainly just for corporal art. His business had
    blossomed.
  • The different thing about Prokos is that he isn't
    your everyday photographer, he started to take
    pictures, and become a serious photographer at a
    fairly late age, and took pictures of a lot of
    the same things but just at different times, and
    one would think that this would get somewhat
    bland and boring, yet in return the outcome is
    incredible and breathtaking.

Why I Chose These Photos
  • The very first photo, in Italy of the ancient
    ruins left behind, it looks to me like the
    lighting that was used is natural, as goes for
    all the other pictures in my slide shows except
    for the Broadway Signs in Times Square.
  • For the first five pictures of my slideshow
    except for the last one is all far away angles,
    but of good quality. The last picture, again of
    time square is more close up and with city
    lights, it looks like it got a little work done
    in Photoshop too.
  • All of these photos, what makes them so
    breath-taking is really the location. You got
    Greece, Italy, New York, Portugal. All the
    amazing culture, weather and all is captured in
    one shot. All of these photos either show
    history, telling a story, and life and culture.
    All these pictures are worth a thousand words,
    and the photography left them for the viewer to
    interpret. I chose all these photos, because I
    personally like them and I want to personally all
    go to the places that the picture is taken
    someday. I think that all of these photos are
    absolutely beautiful and breathtaking.
