Inspired by Henri Cartier-Bresson and other humanist photographers, Steven Silvers takes a black-and-white photojournalistic approach to capturing contemplative, often momentary juxtapositions of people, animals and places, both natural and man-made. 

​

It was 47 years ago when as an 18-year-old Army journalist in Korea, Silvers bought an inexpensive camera and began taking pictures for the base newspaper. A few years later, Silvers was selected to attend the acclaimed Navy Photojournalism Program at Syracuse University’s Newhouse School of Public Communications.

​

Silvers’ career took a different turn after leaving the military in 1984 and he’s been a strictly amateur photographer ever since, taking pictures with an evolving variety of film and digital SLRs, pocket cameras, iPhones and mirrorless kits.
