noir was founded by photographer Hans Rupert in 1994 as a reflection of his passion for the deep, dramatic imagery from the American film noir movement. Born on the cusp between the analog & digital ages, noir has always held the conviction that using digital tools & delivery would serve as the ultimate expression of what still photography could do in a world of noise. In an age where the mantra is often “image is everything”, we feel that a single, strong image can be the one thing. The ultimate goal for noir.net is to create a network in which other photographers with distinct visions can showcase their work. Photographers shown here have their own techniques & talents that set them apart not only from one another – but from the world of everyday photographers as a whole. As you browse the portfolios here, it’s important to note that noir doesn’t own any of the imagery here, but all the imagery owns noir. Just a few of the talented photographers you will see here are: Stefán Águstsson, Stan Jirman, Jonathan Leffert, Hans Rupert, Michael Rutchik, Aaron Spain, and Amy Young.
