"Gary is able to capture the personal style of his subject. The mystique and glamour of his portraiture has almost
been a lost art since the 1930's...I am an admirer and deeply respectful of his talent..."
Donald Brooks/Fashion Designer
"I've had the privilege of observing Gary Bernstein at work. What makes him so special is his genuine and uncritical
affection for people. Light is merely his raw material. He uses it to permit us to see with a uniquely expanded
vision. Bernstein's warmth immediately puts his subject at ease. People feel safe in front of his camera--and honest
emotions and character emerge. There's a remarkable paradox in Bernstein's work--slick technique mixed with basic
human emotion."

What more can I say."
Johnny Carson
"It is said that each artist chooses his tools. The painter…his brush. The sculptor…his hammer and chisel.
Gary Bernstein uses his eye, and in the still moment captures the legends of our lifetime and how we best want to
