About:

What’s up everybody? My name is Darius and I’m a father, husband, educator and I’m “A Brooklyn Soul”. I’ve been a documentary style + streetscape photographer for nearly a decade. My photography is meant to showcase everyday life around the five boroughs, most specifically Brooklyn and particularly people, places + things. As a Brooklyn native born and raised I attempt to document the things that most would take for granted, showcase an ever changing New York City and provide a visual experience that only “A Brooklyn Soul” could.

This journey as a documentarian has brought me a lot of opportunities in the “Instagram era of photography”. I’ve been featured on WNYC radio’s “16 New York City Instagrammers You Should Follow” in 2013 as well as Buzzfeed’s “19 Instagram Accounts That Will Make You Fall In Love With NYC All Over Again" in 2014. In 2018, I was even one of 40 photographers published in the Dutch publication teNues/MENDO’s “Streets of New York” photo book. All of these accolades while I am extremely grateful for them have taught me a lot about how to create striking images and the power of social media. Even though that platform has taught me a lot, I’ve always been about the arts in every medium. It is my hope you like my style and follow my journey as “A Brooklyn Soul”.
