Terence Koh
I ran into Terence Koh Riding his bike in the street in New York in 2010 and snapped this photo without thinking anything other than that I liked the guy’s all white outfit. Much later, reviewing old street photography I had done, I looked a little closer and recognized his face. He’s even rocking some Koh Bunny sneaks 🙂
New Website Update Coming Soon!

BATTLE!
My good friend and fellow photographer Matthew Stacey recently challenged me to a bi-weekly photo battle. I got to pick the subject matter for the first one, and decided on dessert. Been thinking about playing with popsicles for a little while and this is what I came up with to kick it off. Let me know what you think in the comments 🙂
Claire Boutelle by Justin Sullivan
I made this portrait of Los Angeles based letterpress artist and owner of Small Press LA, Claire Boutelle. They do fantastic work, and you’d be doing yourself a favor to collaborate with them on your next press run.

So There’s That.
Just came across an editorial series by NY based photographer Pablo Ravazzani for Contributor Magazine of images of Los Angeles looking up. I felt like I could do better. So I jumped over to my instagram archive and grabbed a few things. Let me know what you think.
Moto Guzzi custom build by Justin Turner
I recently was hired to photograph a new project from custom vintage motorcycle builder Justin Turner. This bike was recently completed and has already been sold to a buyer here in Los Angeles. I haven’t done a lot of transportation photography and I’m pleased with the way that this series came out.
Initially we were looking at locations around his shop to shoot the bike but eventually settled on the freight elevator, as there are some great textures in there. I’ve been leaning away from using strobes in some of my projects lately, but brought them just in case we decided to light a little bit. Ultimately I ended up using natural light and I think it turned out nicely.
Here’s a quick photo from tonight’s Skingraft runway show
So happy to have these people as my clients and friends. Congratulations on another gorgeous season.
I just launched my print store! Check it out!
I’m thrilled to announce that after a great deal of time, planning and work, I’ve launched the first version of my online print store. I’m pleased to be working with Photoshelter, who have been working hard in the photo industry for a very long time to make things better.Â

My first featured gallery consists of images that I’ve made on the go over the past year. It will be updated regularly, and all photos will be limited to 10 prints in each size run. Once they are gone, they are gone.Â

Yesterday’s Instagrampage
If you’re not following me on instagram, my username is @justinsullivan.
I went on an adventure through Boyle Heights and into East LA yesterday and found a world of bright colors and interesting compositions. Here’s what I saw:
Listen to Deafheaven
