(Chief Editor, Nov 2014 – Jan 2018)

GUP (Guide to Unique Photography) is an international quarterly print publication and online platform, dedicated to conceptual fine art photography. It is considered the photographers’ photography publication, an avant garde guide to the changing landscape of photography, and a source of inspiration for the visually informed.

My Role as Chief Editor

After writing for GUP since 2011, and serving as Online Editor since 2012, I became the Chief Editor of GUP Magazine in 2014. As Chief Editor, I was responsible for the content of the quarterly print publication as well as the online platform, gupmagazine.com.
