Brian Wolfe

Brian Wolfe is a lifelong resident of the Hudson Valley, born and raised in Newburgh, NY. If you have read any of the news and entertainment media in the Newburgh Community, you likely have already seen Brian’s byline for his published photos.

Brian received a BA from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in theatre design and sociology. Later Wolfe earned a Master of Fine Arts in set and lighting design from the University of Connecticut. Now part owner of Costume Armour, having worked there since 1981 on the design team for building sculptures, props, costumes and scenery for Broadway Productions, Disney, television and film.

Brian received his first 35 mm film camera at 13 which inspired him to build his own darkroom in a basement closet. Part hobby and part therapy, photography is his greatest passion informed by a lifetime working in the arts. And teaching photography to hobbyists is clearly a talent he also possesses leading to his extraction of joy and self-fulfillment.

Refusing to pick a specific genre of photography Brian instead indulges himself to photograph anything that grabs his interest. Anyone who frequents restaurants and businesses in the Newburgh and surrounding community knows Brian, either having met him or seen his photographs. He is widely appreciated for his ability in capturing the majestic beauty of the Hudson River and the mountainous Hudson Highlands. That said, Brian can often be seen photographing skateboarders, dancers and the many fascinating people in the Hudson Valley.

We had a great session and I am eager to get my pictures into Lightroom to see when I captured!
