I look to various artists to find my inspiration for different, conceptual photos.
I am not always seeking other photographers for ideas. I sometimes look to musicians, filmmakers, videographers and painters to expand my imagination.
Imagination is fantastic, especially when artists collide. Like this musician, Eftrat Gosh (an Israeli musician) along with filmmaker Aviv Kosloff. His lighting and imagery is a clean and beautifully simplistic approach to the storytelling of this song. He ALSO uses paintings from Rachel Kainy that he added to the background.
Amazingly beautiful song and video. Here is the link to the video: "To See the Light."
Efrat sings the song in Hebrew. To see the translation to the song click here.
These artists have inspired me to incorporate a few of the lighting and imagery techniques in my portraits. I would like to project some kinds of impressionistic art on the portraits, while using various dramatic studio light.
Projecting drawings and text in portraits was popular among my peers while I studied Fine Art photography at Utah State. I always wanted to attempt it, but lacked coming up with something unique and beautiful.
Until now.
The ideas are in my mind and I think it is time I try.
The ideas are in my mind and I think it is time I try.
1st I need to bring out my sketch book and draw up a few ideas.
2nd I need to use my children as my models (of course).
3rd I need to break out my strobes and chocolate backdrop. This is going to be fun.
hmmm...the wheels are turning.
