John Darwin Kurc is a photographer who makes his home in Charlotte, North Carolina. John has been taking photos as long as he can remember. His first camera was a used Pentax 35mm SLR, purchased with money he earned from a paper route. John is never without some form of camera and catches glimpses of life with a gift for "noticing" and then capturing the images with his talent for lighting and composition. John specializes in black and white photography and is available for hire. His images are available for licensing. He has two thematic books of photography planned. www.johnkurc.com showcases a selection of John's work using film, DLSR and mobile phones. Please note there are some tasteful nude photographs on this site, so if you are offended by tasteful nudity, as John would say, "Please close your browser."
