About Me

Photographer, filmmaker, writer.
Thanks to everyone who made the latest Screening a Huge Success! What a great crowd and fun night of films!
look at all this beautiful feedback I received:
"Once again, absolutely amazing shorts!!"
"I would seriously love to help you with one of your films....you're amazing!!!"
"You didn't tell me you were funny. Really enjoyed it!"
"that was really fun. expected your films to be funny & hot & they're also also beautiful and original. you got mad skills! how does it feel to have a Body of Work, :D"
"Katrina del Mar's films offer us NYC's current day Factory..... Warhol would approve if he were with us today. You get to explore and peer into the personas of NYC artists, musicians, performers ---- EV/ LES/ Brooklyn/ Chinatown/ Far Rockaway/ ... queer, not queer, transgendered, role challenged, cross specied (human on pug ) ... all collaborating and bringing to the screen the nuances and personalities of today -- through Katrina del Mar's lens."
"Katrina! Last night was awesome! You rock!"
"Please let me know when you're shooting next. I wanna be involved! Thanx"
