Morris Alkalay
Morris Alkalay born in Istanbul 1946 embarked on his photography career on 1980 in Tel Aviv, at a time he worked for a Marinland as the curator, being also in charge of the photography department that generated press releases and annotations for displays. Actually his love and interest for photography dates back to a Red Sea diving safari in 1976 at a time he did not yet photograph. There observing an Underwater Photography course, watching the divers measuring distances, using underwater flashbulbs and taking notes on pads, all underwater, he became thrilled by the whole magical process.
Then, one thing leading to another, he attended courses, also assisting advertising photographers whenever possible, he established his own business, a photo studio providing a variety of services such as product photography and a commercial lab serving other photographers in the hi tech businesses. Later on Morris Alkalay traveled to in Los Angeles, CA, than to Miami, South Beach, FL where he specialized working as a fashion photographer.
Currently while he maintains a variety of commercial photo services, you can still find Morris in his spare time underwater, with his camera, visiting his small or big aquatic friends, as they willingly model for him in exchange for small handouts.
The body of fine art work I am privileged to share with you here reflect a certain spectrum of work I have enjoyed creating lately, hoping visitors might enjoy viewing. I shall be more than happy to assist you, should you decide upon making a purchase of my images.
