Photographer Gregoire Alessandrini, who we’ve previously featured in our vintage photo column on the Meatpacking, Times Square and Iconic Diners of NYC posts, has recently shared photos he snapped of celebrities in New York in the 1990s on film sets and at events. “As a film student and a young writer/photographer in the 1990’s, I always carried a camera with me,” he describes, and his website is a treasure trove of images of a bygone New York. Today, Alessandrini is an executive audiovisual producer at Louis Vuitton in Paris.
