About the Photographer

"Welcome! This is my photojournalistic photoblog of photography."

That little quoted bit was actually part of the template, but it made me laugh a little so I kept it in here. My name is Ilya Chigirev, and this is my life. I try to carry around my camera with me as often as I can and take pictures when the opportunity arises. Sometimes I stumble upon great things wandering around the streets of New York or New Jersey. I have been taking photos since I was in college where I acted as photography editor for the Rutgers Daily Targum, the daily school paper. After a brief lull in activity I finally got my own camera and started taking pictures again. I hope you enjoy my site. For contact information see my home page site and find the 'Contact' page. Or simply follow this link.
