Would I recognise my own work?

But can you look at your portfolio and know it's you, or do you see nothing that stands out, stylistically?


Yes I think people recognise my work

I don't have a style, I just turn up at a location, and decide what pictures to take based on the location, model and light. However, people in the camera club community and on here often tell me they can instantly recognise one of my images, even from a thumbnail sometimes!

I am one of those people and yes, I can from the thumbnail!

Thinking further, maybe I have a style and that maybe it is one that appeals to very few people.

And what appeals to me in others work seems also to appeal to few people.

So, I guess you would not look at your portfolio and say for definite, that it's your work. If you go to it, would you attribute the images to another Photographer?

I don't see anything wrong with having a specific look and style, but it's always good for the soul, to branch out and try different techniques.

I must return the compliment and say I would spot one of your rocks anywhere!

This is certainly not the case with well known photographers like Herb Ritts, Annie Leibowitz, Penn, Ansel Adams... They have definite signatures.

Well I don't know if you are a lady or not, but you are tapping into your feminine side, for sure 😊

As I look at the top half of your images here, I see a uniqueness there. Your style portrays Tension and anticipation with the models' posing and your framing in some photos. 👍🏽

Marissa _PH1 absolutely! That’s very true ☺️ I can say I would recognize my work, but I don’t feel I’ve quite yet perfected my “style.”

It's always a journey, no matter how long we've been shooting.
