PORTRAITURE & CELEBRITY PHOTOGRAPHY Mar 2021

What makes a great portrait captivating? Is it the face or what is behind it? Story telling portraiture is the result of a genuine collaboration between the subject and the photographer.

Los Angeles-based photographer and director Charles Grauke enjoys this process and understands the importance of this partnership in his work with athletes, models, entertainers and everyday people.

Charles has shot global motion and stills projects for Apple, Beats by Dre, Old Navy, True Religion Jeans and BeBe. He has worked on projects with Adidas, Athleta, Nike, and Vans, among others.
