First photographer is undoubtedly one of the most talented and creative photographers I know. Gregory Crewdson He creates these movie like sets that end up looking very cinematic and just overall amazing. When I look at his images it reminds me of the Truman show movie, where everything around the main character is a set and it’s all so perfect and that what I feel crewdsons images are like. His images are very complex and have Clear showing that every single area of the compositions have been thought out thoroughly.
Harold Ross is my second photographer, Ross photographs a mixture of still life and landscape photography using the painting with light technique. Another very interesting fact about Ross’ work is that he uses medium format. He explains this is because his main focus is the details and depths within his images and the medium format provides that. He then post edits on photoshop. The smooth and flawless effect of his images is apparently because the medium format cameras give that look.
“When looked at from a certain viewpoint or camera angle, and with lighting that brings out the otherwise hidden aspects of an object, we can make the seemingly mundane into something truly extraordinary”
