Vans OTW Perspectives: Mel D. Cole

“Nowadays, you have to be more than just a photographer to be a photographer.”

It’s been a while since Vans dropped the ‘An OTW Minute’ videos, and since they were longer than a minute anyway, the next round has a different name. The first ‘OTW Perspectives’ clip focuses on New York photographer Mel D. Cole, who spends time in the subway and high above the Big Apple in a helicopter, showing different perspectives on the city that never sleeps. Mel exemplifies a new breed of photographer who deals more with social media and concert shots than wedding photos or school portraits. Check out the full video below for his own unique perspective on the profession and stick with Sneaker News for more OTW videos.
