Hi I'm Anthony

My goal is to connect with like-minded people improve my abilities and make some art for art's sake!.............    I do this for fun. 

Over the years I have gathered many different types of pictures from landscapes, portraits, architecture, and industrial. As nice as landscape and architecture photography is I always feel as if there is something missing in the empty space, I need to fill it with life!...... Collaborate with interesting creative people to fill the hole in those empty scenes.    

I Like things that are slightly odd, dark, or hidden, it makes the viewer think a little harder.  Deep dark black-and-white pictures are something I have gravitated to over the years but aim to add more vibrant colouful images to my collection.  Classic, simple, and timeless are what I hope to achieve. 

I am a hobbyographer, None of my work is for sale, my payment comes from creating snapshots in time. 

 

Ideas for shoots:

Deep emotion series of portraits.

I want to add more classic-style portraits to my collection, but with a real feeling of emotion projecting to the viewer. I want to make someone feel your happiness, sadness, joy, anger, and pain. I want the viewer to feel you! smile with you! cry with you! I'm sure this is what every photographer aims to achieve, that connection from the subject to the viewer but how do we project this in an authentic way? By making it honest. Finding happiness is easy, talking about things that make you happy it will naturally manifest. To capture real sadness and despair is much harder, no one wants to share their pain, it is deep and personal. In this series I don't want just your picture, I want to capture a part of you! You would never be asked to talk about anything you are not willing to share, all I ask is for you to tell me about you, from triumphs to failures good days and bad, what pisses you off to what brings you joy.  

Looking for tattoed models for various scenarios, from portrait shoots to street photography, urban exploring, graffiti scenes, etc. You know the ones, all cool-looking, colorful, and vibrant. after all, my collection could do with a splash of color don't you think? 

Girls in guy's clothes. so many ways this can be interpreted and presented to the viewer. I was thinking of a peaky blinders style but always open to suggestions. In reality, any style would fit the narrative, and that is why it's an open book to explore.  It would need to be discussed further with the individual model to tailor the right outfit to their specific look to maximize the shoot being a success.   

Levitation, floating, being in a setting that is unnatural or seemingly unreal to the viewer. I want someone to look at the picture and think "WTF am I looking at" To be honest, I do not know the details but it sounds fun to explore  

 

I'll no doubt add more, but I think that'll do fa now!
