Fashion Photographer Captures Jesus in 21st Century Photo Collection

Teresa Neumann : Sep 15, 2009  Michelle A. Vu - The Christian Post

"In truth, we assign too much importance to issues that, in the end, will be of no consequence. Have you ever heard of a man on his deathbed who asked to see his stock portfolio one more time? Could the time we spend worrying be better spent in quiet, soothing fellowship with the One who created it all and promises more?"

REPORTER'S NOTE: There's something about this photo collection that really got to me. The setting (Italy) and the vintage black-and-white feel of the pictures were only part of what reeled me in. It was the passion behind the photos along with the accompanying devotionals that did it. Do take the time to settle into a quiet spot and view this collection. Share them with others. You will be inspired and your day will be injected with direction and renewed love for Jesus. -Teresa Neumann, BCN.

Michael Belk is a Christian fashion photographer who, greatly impacted by 9/11 while in New York for a photo shoot a week after the disaster, has created the "Jesus Photo Collection." The collection is said to be a retelling of the Gospels to a 21st century audience.

Belk called it "the most grueling, but most rewarding shoot" of his career.

Notes reporter Michelle A. Vu: "The fashion photographer-turned-Jesus' camera man is considering exhibiting the collection worldwide in counterintuitive venues such as mass transit stations, corporate headquarters and projections onto urban buildings. He also hopes the images will be used in a greeting card line and small group curriculum."
