Wick has no social presence- no pictures on Instagram, no soup recipes on Facebook. You can find him here!
Real people, with all their imperfections and eccentricities, fascinate him and his portraits aim to tell their stories with empathy, honor and dignity.
He now lives on the Upper West Side with his best girl Tess, a mighty fine nyc portrait and headshot photographer herself, (www.tesssteinkolk.com for a look) and their fine bred Pug (I'd say, save for her countenance, she is indeed a hot blooded Russian wolfhound at heart) Emmy Lou Harris.
