NIkko's treehouse

New Jersey-based photographer Clay Rossner has been capturing the heart of vinyl collecting with his Records series. Whether it’s Mac Demarco’s Salad Days surrounded by greenery and an ashtray full of stubbed-out cigarettes, or trinkets and diary notes dotted around Sufjan Stevens’ Carrie & Lowell, each carefully constructed image translates the often intangible feeling of a particular album into something visual. The 24 year old first got into photography at the age of 12, when his older brother let him get his hands on his Nikon SLR film camera. Around the same time, his family relocated, he tells me over email, and every weekend he would go visit his friends back in his hometown and return with a bunch of film to develop. The rest is learned history.
