Covers by Matthew Jordan Smith

Cover Up!

September 30, 2014

One of the best feelings a photographer can have is experiencing your images on the cover of a magazine. The feeling never gets old. After decades of magazine covers I still get that "wondering feeling" each time I see my work on the cover of a magazine, or on the side of a building or passing bus. 

Today,  a bus pulled up beside me as I drove through Hollywood, and on the side was my recent image of Queen Latifah for the Queen Latifah show. I smiled as I looked at the image and wish my parents were in the car with me at that moment.
