Michael Mastrogiovanni, or MJ Mastro, is a self taught photographer who has been making pictures for more than 30 years. He lives in New Orleans and primarily make photographs of the unique New Orleans street and festival culture with some of my favorite subjects being musicians, Mardi Gras parades, Sunday second line parades and Mardi Gras Indian events that take place around town. Mastrogiovanni has also been a volunteer photographer at French Quarter Fest and at JazzFest, and has sold other photographs taken around New Orleans and Louisiana at local art fairs/markets including Frenchmen Street Art Market and Freret Street Market.
