Celebrity Photography By Frank W. Ockenfels

Frank has also directed for many years. He has directed music videos for bands such as Alice in Chains, Blues Travelers, Johnny Lang, the Deftones, Better than Ezra, and Everclear. He has also shot commercials for clients such as Nike, Converse, K-Swiss, Canon and the New York Times and on-air promos for the CW, E!, The Style Channel and Comcast.
Frank is a nimble problem solver. His ability to adapt to unusual ten minute situations as well as staying away from the obvious seem to be qualities that set him apart from other photographers. He believes in meeting someone first and then deciding what the image will be. Working with artificial and existing light, he collaborates with the subject to create a unique moment. In many ways Frank is unconventional. He believes that photography can still have moments of purity without being overly conceptualized or retouched.
