Staff Photographer

Teodor Brandt

Teodor Brandt shoots most of Veyra’s photo essays and roughly half its features. The working method is slow and repetitive: return to the same location across a season, on film, until the place stops performing. Brandt’s series on Atlantic port labor ran across four issues and remains the magazine’s most requested archive piece.
