The Stories Behind the Stories
Amplifying the visual narratives of Bruce DeBoer:
“If a picture is worth 1000 words, Bruce has a massive vocabulary.“

Over the last 25+ years, Bruce DeBoer has shot for some of the most talented art directors and clients around the world. From Harley Davidson, MGM Studio 54 to Conte Naste, he makes visual stories more captivating. A captivating story involves filling in the blanks — the unknowns— with the right adverbs, and these are the amplifiers and subtleties that Bruce specializes in.
In a market flooded with photographer’s books, we focused on creating a portfolio that would, instead, give insight into Bruce’s mindset — his problem solving ability and the enthralling, fascinating stories he told of behind the shoots themselves.
The short paragraphs describing the work are Bruce’s own oral narrative, with adverbs drawn from to form the moment.
