I'm interested in street life and street photography, graffiti, architecture, storefronts and other urban subjects. I'm originally from Florida, I've lived in New York and now I live in London, but I take photos everywhere. I love going on long walks with my camera. I document graffiti and street art to help create an online "library" of what would otherwise be ephemeral works.
Licentiate member of the Royal Photographic Society (LRPS).
I've compiled my favorite photos into books, which are available on Blurb:

Photos in albums of "rescued" photos were purchased by me at junk, thrift or antique shops. I did not take those photos but now own the prints/slides.

Steve is the sniper of the streets ... he pinpoints the best targets, zeroes in and shoots incredible shots of all the greatest graf in NYC. His discerning lens provides an incredible record of the ever-changing street art scene.

You don't know this, but Steve Reed saved your sanity. Steve Reed has dedicated countless hours and perfectly good shoes to walking around reminding you what the world looks like; it's a rough and scratchy underbelly and coated in scribbles and stickers, and exoskeleton made of steel girders and a porous concrete skin. And we live in times where nothing needs to be real any more. So thank the appropriate powers that be that Steve is.
