We had our photo light painting safari last night and it was AWESOME! One of the photos I took reminded me of one of my favorite photographers, Gregory Crewdson. Here’s my photo:
Here’s one of Gregory’s that is a bit similar:
Here’s my favorite of his, and it’s his book cover for Twilight (not to be confused with the vampire fad)
I love his use of light, but more so, I love how he builds these crazy elaborate sets. At some point, I hope to meet the owner of one of these abandoned houses and get permission to ‘stage’ a shoot.
If you like abstract photos, staged photos and light painting, here’s a few things to google…
- Gregory Crewdson – Photographer
- Sandy Skoglund – Photographer (she’s been my favorite since I owned my first camera)
- staged photography
- abstract photography
- light painting photography
- surreal photography
See you tonight at the photoshop class!
