This is Defekto talking...

I have been taking Polaroid portraits for twenty years and will be damned if I don't get a full chronicling of my work in a big coffee table book. I am the last of the famous International Polaroid Photographers and will happily speak with agents, publishers, editors and anyone else who wants to help me get my work seen by a larger audience. We'll have a blast. Let's do it!
--Jim Lucio

I live in Baltimore and am a freelance graphic designer and photographer. I am also available for your personal photos or events. Just let me know.
