Task 1 Research

April-Lee Hutchison
She likes shooting in black and white and her works are heavily influenced by her own emotions and instincts. She effortlessly connects with her models since she has developed her own taste from her modelling experiences.

Her style in nude photography echoes anonymity, intimacy, and mystery and illustrates a mishmash of the beauty and simplicity of the female human body, giving a classier sense to eroticism.

She also specializes in editorial and portraiture photography.

Aside from being a professional photographer, she also works as an art director and editor for two international magazines. Hutchinson’s first self-published book will be out this year.

This is one of her film photographs from her Nude and Eroticism Part of her website, i have looked at a lot of these images and to be honest i really like them, yes they are a bit vulgar to some but I think most of them are very tasteful, creative, intriguing and very mysterious. A lot of her images are not this covered up and elegant but this is definitely one of my favourite photos out of her nude college. 
This is from Aprils Portraiture Part of her website and again a lot of it does contain nudity. This image  jumped out to be straight away, I think because of the colours and how unique and pretty this young women is makes it jump out that much more, and i think the contrast between her black hair, dark eyes and the beautiful bright background is amazing. Even know the focus isn't amazing i still think that it is really effective and if this was my work I would be proud. 
This is from Her editorial/fashion Part of the website, I found that these photos are a lot more mysterious and even scary in some photographs, like something you might see in a horror story. This image is one of the more modest ones I have seen its in colour and it a lot lighter and brighter, were i think a lot of her work is pretty dark and gloomy but still very effective. I think this one is very modern because of the tattoos, hair and overall style, where a lot of her other images seem old fashion almost.   

Erin Mulvehill
Her photographic style is beauty visualized and personified.

One of her highly acclaimed photo series, Underwater, is both a shivery, stunning recreation of her dreams and a telling illumination of her belief in transience and being born again. As opposed to its title, this set was captured in a studio with a 35mm film camera.

Mulvehill uses analogue photography as a tool to connect to the rest of the world. The Camera Project, which bequeaths disposable cameras to children across the globe, is an ongoing project of hers.
This is from Erin's Underwater shoots, and i find all these photographs so fascinating, they are so creative, creepy, elegant and so unique, i have never seen anything like this before, this is definitely something I was be really interested in giving a go and it would go perfectly with my glass theme, we are doing at the moment. 
http://icanfreezetime.com/files/gimgs/60_5846plant.jpg
This is from Erin's personal folder on the website, which had a wide variety of different, photos, styles and ideas. I like this photo because its almost like a hidden message and how there is one little plant growing in the middle of the sand its almost inspiring. 
http://icanfreezetime.com/files/gimgs/69_erinmulvehillinnocence21.jpg
This is from the To Innocence, lost. When you open up these images there is a short poem which relates to the images and how she sees the poem maybe when reading it and what it represents to her. I like this photograph because i think it represents that something beautiful can be in the most inspected place's. 

Glass Photography Simon Bruntnell 
Contemporary Glass Photography 11
Contemporary Glass Photography 11-1
I like this image because even know it doesn't shoot glass directly it is still in the photograph and it is definitely effective and different, i love all the blues and how well everything works together. 
Contemporary Glass Photography 01
I like all these images because I think they show and represent the different ways and perspective you can have when photographing glass and I think that this project is a fantastic opportunity to be creative and think outside the box. I love how all these photos are completely different some are more complex then the others and some are just really simple but effect ideas.

These are just a few photos created by Erik Johansson, they are all so creative, and this kind of photograph/art is for the open minded and big thinkers because some of his ideas are amazing. They are all so amazing and creative and i am still wondering how is does all these amazing things. I love how realistic they are even know some of these photos are mind blowing and could not be real. He has definitely inspired me and got me thinking and I think that glass could really be good to create some interesting images like this.

Faeces Task

Faces Task 


This is my faces task were we had to try two different techniques. I have also added some other extra photos of the light trails I did with the mood, which i thought looked really interesting and loved the different effects. I didn't manage to shoot all the photos in my short amount of time but the ones I did do turned out really good. I did find the silhouette was the most challenge, I just could get it right, im not sure why or if my technique was wrong, but i am going to try this again.
