Legend in the game - Atiba Jefferson

atibajefferson

  • Born in 1976 in Colorado Springs
  • In the early part of his career he was fortunate to work alongside legendary skateboard photographer; Grant Britain and LA Lakers team photographer; Andrew D. Bernstein
  • Having learnt a great deal about photography from these two, Atiba's freelance work came on leaps and bounds
  • Soon he found himself working for NBA, XXL, NIKE and ES to name a few
  • In 2003 he left Transworld and set up The Skateboarding mag with a group of friends
  • Since then he has made numerous television appearances and also video game appearances such as being a character in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

Here's a selection of my favourite photo's from him ...
