Shadows and Light
It's been a while since my last blog post. In the meantime I've been shooting lots, trying out new ideas that have been floating around in my mind and hoping that I find it as interesting in real life. It has been a time of miserable weather and a bit of a creative slump on my side of the world. To try and get over this slump Have been shooting a bit of street photography when I can. Going back to basics and just looking out for certain colors on certain days. For me it's a lot harder than it sounds because I'm not sure my brain thinks that way but I think that is the point of the exercise.
As far as shooting bodies, I continue to try to focus on tighter shots. Focusing on a certain part of the body and not just as a whole. Using shadows as my own personal wardrobe stylist to hide what I don't want to focus on and the light to draw my eye to what I do want to focus on.
As far as new ideas, I want to shoot different body types but I am struggling to find "normal" people who are confident to pose for me. By this I mean all different body types that don't necessarily fit the typical stereotypical magazine cover profile. This includes curvaceous, obese, "too thin" etc. Do you have a physical disability and are not embarrassed of it? If you are interested and then feel free to reach out and send me an email. I am looking to create interesting and thought provoking photos with you.
Have a great one.
