My final project will be exposing vulnerability of people. The project will potentially be a self portrait series in which I shoot pictures of myself in various lighting environments. The only common thing for each picture is that the lighting will be coming from an unconventional source. This will range from common sources such as street lights at night to bright phones in a dark room, to not as common…

Brassaï was a Hungarian-French photographer, sculptor, and filmmaker from the 1900’s. He studied painting and sculpture at the Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts and cites Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec as a large influence in his work. In addition to art, Brassaï was also a journalist. A large part of Brassaï’s work that interests me is his ability to capture intimate moments. He has several pieces of work that capture couples kissing,…

Philip Lorca Dicorcia is known for his work in public spaces. Some of his work takes advantage of natural lighting while other work is done via flashes that are added to the scene. Perhaps his most famous work is his Heads series, where he photographs random pedestrians as they pass by a flash. He is able to capture their natural expressions from a distance. By removing himself from the scene, he…

Photography has changed the world as it allows for us to record history in ways that were not possible before. Prior to photography, history was told through language.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DdsNBxlDxw8htRkkTlY-GaPioK_J7rC6 Michael Kenna is a well known English photographer that primarily shoots in medium format. What makes his landscapes unique from others is the way he uses long exposure to capture low lighting environments. To be able to capture these scenes, he sometimes takes long exposures as long as 10 hours in order to achieve the signature ethereal look his work has. I particularly enjoy the minimalist aspect of his…
