PHOTOGRAPHY


"The fact that Käla is the granddaughter of the famous vaudevillian, Mandrake the Magician, may have something to do with her ability to capture the theater of the City’s daily life" (VelvetPark magazine, 2011)
Born and raised in New York, Käla Mandrake has been photographing her life, her friends and the underground art and music scene since she was 15 years old.
In 1999, she began her own photography business providing for local musicians and performing artists.
2011 marks the official launch of Käla Mandrake's first photography book, UNDERGROUND, which depicts a truly intimate look into some of the unique and brave souls of New York City's underground scene.
She has been writer/producer and video editor for HBO, Cinemax and BBC America, and in February 2011, officially launched her own media production company while producing the promotional shows for the first season of HBO’s original series Game of Thrones.
Stay tuned for the winter release of Käla Mandrake’s upcoming film “WURTSBORO” (Based on her novella “Fiction Story”)
