which i love
which i adore
which never come out the way i see them in my head
yesterday in class we were going through my portfolio
and chappell commented that it was "so...fashion"
no
no
NO!
i love what i shoot, yes
but some of my favorite photographers are NOT fashion
maybe that's a good thing....
anyway for a new assignment i will be shooting in the inspiration of heidi slimane
very black and white bold photographs that are simple but say alot
also i have recently discovered the work of max vadukul who does shoot fashion
but i admire his work alot
above is a photograph i shot for our lighting assignment
i like this because i think i am finally breaking the wall between digital and traditional
i have realised that with traditional its not about bright colors, but the simplicity for me
is what makes it all the more powerful
i had to learn that black and white photography is powerful enough by itself
and that i don't need to garnish it in bright makeup and sparkles.
