Paparazzi Elterman Registers 20k Tumblr Followers
Celebrity photographer Brad Elterman, a prolific photo blogger just hit 20,000 followers on Tumblr. Brad, co founder of Buzz Foto LLC has spent his entire career, starting at age 16, in the photo industry either taking or brokering celebrity photographs. He told AboutTheImage.com “ Tumblr is a wonderful shop window to the world. I enjoy sharing my early photographs with the next generation and I have had excellent feedback from fashion editors and corporate brands”. Brad’s vintage 70’s photos and his cameras were stored in a box for almost thirty years while he was running photo agencies including California Features and Online USA. The later was sold to Getty back in 2000.
“Today the new players in pop culture have embraced my early work and my Tumblr fans are responsible for encouraging me to photograph the scene once again. It’s such a contrast to the days when I would be mailing my photos ( before Fed EX ) of the Bay City Rollers or Joan Jett to magazines all over Europe and Japan. Those days and those markets are gone for good. Today it’s all about the internet and for me it’s what the internet has created and not what it has destroyed. Needless to say, I am having the time of my life”.
