Porter Gifford – Photographer
Photographing for leading publications such as The New York Times Magazine, Time, Life, and People, skilled photojournalist Porter Gifford creates beautiful images that are both heartwarming and exceptional. Whether it’s a beautifully captured color portrait or a candid moment between family members, Porter’s photographs will never disappoint.
“I wanted to be a sports writer for my college newspaper, the Harvard Crimson, but the lengthy and notoriously difficult ordeal of “passing the comp” and becoming an “editor” at that illustrious institution held no appeal. I had heard that it was easier to get in the door as a photographer, and once in, one could switch to any department one liked. Now, that appealed to me.”
“It is now over twenty years later and the Sports Desk has yet to hear from me. Certainly, we are both the better for it.”
