Scott is an American who spent his childhood as an ex-pat in The Netherlands and Switzerland. He discovered photography during a gap year spent traveling in the Himalayas and the American West. He returmed from the road to receive a BS in Photography and Cinematography with a minor in art history from Ithaca College. Ever since he has been based in NYC where over the course of a prolific 25+ year career as a photographer and director, Scott has photographed international campaigns for global brands and major magazines, directed  commercials and a feature film.  

Along with his portraits of many of the best creative minds in Hollywood, the music industry and the worlds of business and government, Scott has created several fine art bodies of work including the highly acclaimed "Mandela Day” project (capturing the hands and faces of many of those who support Nelson Mandela's message.) and a series of portraits accompanying the film "Pop Culture" about the fatherhood experience. He is curently working on a book for his "Scar Stories" project.

His most recent work, “The Backline Series” seeks to elevate the tools of rock n’ roll. Inspired by the gear while backstage at a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert, Scott decided to photograph road worn guitars, amps, drums, etc. from bands, small clubs and recording studios which can be just as visually interesting as the music they make.

Scott’s fine art work has shown at solo and group exhibits and is held in many collections internationally. He lives in New York City with his wife and 2 children. Scott also builds guitars and is a published children’s book author.
