He is a Southern California native who now lives in Portland...in between he has spent some time in Norway and Alaska. Specifically, the Bering Sea is where he spent six winters working aboard a commercial crab boat, and fished wild Salmon in Alaska. Aboard these fishing vessels he developed a unique viewpoint for his photography, talent, and passion. Corey sought out the humor and humanity of his subjects, embracing a rebellious, playful, and quirky side.
He has shot men lying on top of a room FULL of crab and hugging huge fish. Arnold says he’s not a documentarian in the pure sense. That said; he wants his images to tell stories...he’s not above a bit of staging.
His works can be purchased individually or you can purchase a book. The 1000 copy print run of his first book sold out in 4 and a half months! Nazraeli Press will be doing a second printing which is now available for pre-order at fish-work.com.
