Sarah Silver: Moving Beauty
Sarah Silver’s love of photography began in her grandfather’s darkroom. This love has never waned, but she has explored dramatically different genres of the visual medium throughout her career.
The New York City-based photographer/director began her career as a photojournalist covering the Middle East, which perhaps isn’t surprising when you consider that she was born in Tokyo and globe-trotted with her parents on her father’s overseas stints for the United Nations.
But it was in the Big Apple that her love of dance and photography came together and refocused her visual direction into the world of motion, fashion and beauty.
Named a Hasselblad Master, Silver has a commercial client list ranging from Aveda and L’Oréal to Proenza Schouler and Swarovski and editorial work from Allure and The New York Times to Vanity Fair and Vogue. She has also appeared in front of the lens on the reality series “America’s Next Top Model,” “Project Runway” and “LA Ink.”
