Interview with ANDREW HENDRICKSON
He is young,uses Mamiya and lives in San Francisco, CA.
CZE: Hey Andrew, how is it going? AH: Sup, not much, eating a bagel.
CZE: Shooting skateboards in suburbs must be fun, ho
AH: Yeah it’s fun, mostly cause you’re mainly just han you try to get a trick and it just goes from there.
CZE: When was the very first time you made a photogr AH: When I was about 16 I think.
CZE: Do you skate? Since when? AH: Yeah a little bit, not a lot but I have gnarly frontsi
CZE: What would be skateboarding without photograph AH: Photography is a huge part of skateboarding, almo in press and all that. As for photography without skate
CZE: Is there any special part of this lifestyle (skating AH: Everything as a whole really, patience to get that
CZE: I know you shoot with film, what cameras and film AH: Fisheyes are the most usual item in a skating phot job. For me, I like using my Mamiya 7, the Yashica 12 does the job. It’s a lot easier shooting digital nowaday
ow would you describe that?
nging out like buddies do, then the photos happen and
raph of skating?
ide flips ha.
hy and photography without skateboarding? ost as important as filming I’d say, it gives exposure eboarding, I guess it would be less fun.
g) that you enjoy most shooting? perfect shot, the bails, the good times, everything.
ms you prefer to use for skate photography? tographer, but anything with a fast shutter does the 24G, using obviously a tripod. For portability ContaxT2 ys though.
CZE: What or who gives you the biggest inspiration of doing all this? AH: Friends. Mike Blabac, Atiba Jefferson, Giovanni Reda, Spike Jones, Mike O’Meally, all the good guys. CZE: Anything else?.. AH: I need another bagel. CZE: Thanks Andrew! AH: No problem.
