FF #.. 8 or 9??

My photographer for this thanksgiving week is David Lachapelle.   (once again, a celebrity photographer)
David LaChapelle was born in Connecticut in 1969. He studied as a fine artist at N.Carolina School of the Arts before moving to New York. He then enrolled at both the Art Students League and the School of Visual Arts. Not yet out of high school, he was offered his professional job by Andy Warhol to work for Interview Magazine.    His photography has been showcased in tons galleries and museums, including Tony Shafrazi Gallery and Deitch Projects in New York. His pictures have been on and in between the covers of magazines such as Vogue, French Vogue, Vanity Fair, GQ, and Rolling Stone.

He has photographed people from kanye west to muhammed ali to leonardo dicaprio to hilary clinton, and has a style that is unique to any one person.  He like every other photographer, tries to incorporate the ideas and opinions of his subject and of his.   I personally liked his work, partly because of the people in them, but mostly because of the striking and vibrantly beautiful pictures.

Photographer is Micheal Muller, a photographer who is into sports, entertainment, and celebrity pictures.  He incorporates his interests, for instance in his sports captures, his pictures suggest an interest in cleveland(maybe thats just my assumption)    I didn't find any personal info on Micheal, but then again, it may have been on a site like wikipedia, which i don't use. 

I didn't think his pictures had an special, jump-off-the-screen quailty.  They were great pictures, and very creative, but also very original and used.  His idea of sports photography is mainly still pictures.  When i think of sports captures i think of fast paced in the game pictures, that happen to catch a moment in an important second of time.

FF # 6

my photographer is eve arnold.  She is a professional photographer of celebrities and documentaries.  Her work resembles the 1990s. She is well known for her photographs of marilyn monroe, and even has a book of them.  I love the way eve captured her beauty, and true emotions.  In some of the pictures, marilyn looks depressed almost, and eve didn't try to hide it, she took the photo anyway, and i loved that about her photos, they were true.
The websites i tried to use to link to were "unavailable" so i linked to a blog review about Eve.




(not sure what else i need to say)

featured photographer #7

Sarahlee Welch Photography  Sarah is a 25 year old wedding  photographer out of Colorado.  She enjoys vacations with her husband and loves the mountains She believes that customer service comes first above all, and that her five years of experience doesn't define her skill.
Her work is very creative and festive, with every picture having a story of its own(which is very important to me)  She has a way of framing the person, yet including a background that creates a story.

Featured Photographer

My photographer for this week is a company called The Pearl Photography. It is a group of people who specializes in weddings, in the Southern California specifically Los Angeles.  They believe that wedding pictures should be available at a low price, and that quality should mean more than making money.  I like the way they have every photo bright and vibrant, and how  they don't change the personality of the person, by altering the picture.

they link above goes to their website, and thus the galleries.
