STREET STYLE I LOVE THIS SHOT! IT’S A COMBINATION OF THE HAIRSTYLE, PINSTRIPE SHIRT AND PERSONALITY ALL CAUGHT IN A SINGLE IMAGE. THIS IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF WHAT I TRY TO CAPTURE IN PEOPLE. THEIR MANNERISMS AND CHARACTER, ALL WITHIN A WINDOW OF A FEW MINUTES.
WHAT I REALLY LIKE ABOUT THIS SHOT IS THE SEPARATION OF THE SITTER FROM THE BACKGROUND. I ALWAYS TRY TO ISOLATE THE SUBJECT, AS IT DRAWS ATTENTION TO THE INTIMATE DETAILS, LIKE THE FLORAL PATTERNS OF THE SHIRT. IN THESE PORTRAITS, YOU CAN REALLY ENGAGE WITH THE SITTER IN AN INTIMATE WAY – HOLDING THE GAZE AND SEEING ALL THE NUANCES THAT MAKE UP THIS PERSON’S CHARACTER.
ANOTHER HOMAGE TO A CLASSIC ERA OF THE 60S/70S. THIS AMAZING HUMAN REALLY STOOD OUT IN THEIR BOLD COLOURS, CLASSIC HAIRSTYLE AND VINTAGE EYE MAKEUP. I FEEL LIKE A LOT OF EFFORT WENT INTO PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER!
MEET FELLOW INSTA PHOTOGRAPHER HASSAN RAJA, AKA @CAPTUREDHR. WE’D GEEKED OUT AND CHATTED A FEW TIMES ON INSTAGRAM ON ALL THINGS PHOTO RELATED – AND I FINALLY GOT TO MEET HIM. GOOD JOB HE WAS WEARING THIS COOL NECKERCHIEF THAT CAUGHT MY EYE!
