Scott McDermott

Born in the US, Scott grew up in Switzerland, backpacked America's wild west, and hiked Nepal's Himalayas before committing to a college life spent mostly in a darkroom in upstate New York. After several years as an assistant to a wide variety of NYC photographers, he struck out on his own, shooting athletes and extreme sports. Scott's work eventually shifted toward the athletes themselves and portraiture. This led to photographing many of the best creative minds in Hollywood, the music industry and the worlds of business and government. Along with his advertising and editorial work, Scott recently shot a series for "Mandela Day," capturing the hands and faces of many of those who support Nelson Mandela's message. Scott is based in both New York City and Los Angeles. Check the Magazines of the member.
