Inspiring photography is often sparked by thinking about and seeing compositions that other don’t. This is why architecture and photography go together so well; it teaches to see lines, converging points, etc. which work great in photography. A good example of this is architect and photographer Matteo Bucciol, living in Padua, Italy.

Matteo graduated at the University of Venice in 2011 and now works in the field of sustainable energy. He grew up with the photography of his father, who is very technical. Matteo is…Read More »

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
At times you just don’t have enough information in one picture. Canadian photographer / painter Jonathan Dy must have thought so as he found out new ways to incorporate information into his photographs in form of multi-flash and reflection pictures. Of course, both techniques aren’t new but the way Jonathan has perfected them is impressive, to say the least! I was born in Windsor, ON where I went to school for painting.  In 2005 I moved to Vancouver, BC and taught myself how to use…Read More »

Conceptual / documentary photographer Anne Barlinckhoff is a young, raw and energetic talent based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. For her latest series she worked together with one of my favourite and most elusive street artists in Amsterdam: Laser 3.14. The poetic writings of Laser are to be found all over the city and his solo-shows never cease to amaze. But even though he’s very present in Amsterdam, few get to know Laser’s true face. This forces most people to form their opinion sole over…Read More »

Works from Corinne Vionnet
When I first saw this series of Corinne Vionnet I thought it was consisted by paintings. It was a big surprise when, checking more carefully, I found out that these incredible images are, in reality, photographs. This fact changed my whole perception of the work, bringing me ideas of how we can be affected by places. In this case, touristic places. Vionnet used the photographic technique to make us think, artistically. Why are we fascinated by these sites? Is it because they are really enchanting…Read More »

The name Terry O’ Neill might ring a bell with you all. The legendary celebrity photographer has had everyone who was anyone in the 60′s and 70′s in front of his camera. Brigitte Bardot, the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Audrey Hepburne, Frank Sinatra, Clint Eastwood and many more iconic names have been immortalized by Terry, resulting in picturs that are at least as iconic and familair as the models. The Rook & Raven Gallery in London organized an amazing show based on Terry’s work….Read More »

To commemorate this tragedy we have the honor to show you the images of Lee Basford (you might remember the images he shot in Kushiro, Japan). Lee has been concentrating much more on his photography recently and slowly building a versitile…Read More »

Chinese guy smoking a cigarette
Hong Kong based Timothy Cheng almost never leaves the house without his camera. The Chinese city is renowned for its expansive skyline and a population of seven million people. This fact makes Hong Kong one of the most densely populated areas in the world. For street photographers it must feel like paradise on earth. Cheng picked up on his street photography back in 2007 and rapidly developed a really nice style “Everyday, I like to look out what is happening around me….Read More »

Nike shoe splasing in puddle -Street photography by Jürgen Bürgin
Berlin based photographer Jürgen Bürgin picked up a camera about three years ago, initially to capture nature sceneries. But instead of capturing Nature, Jürgen’s photographic eye was far more attracted to urban sceneries. Now he’s a city-dweller who’s capturing major urban cityscapes and its inhabitants whenever he has the chance. I’m an urban photographer, living in Berlin, Germany. Well to be exact in my daily life I’m working in movie business in Berlin as a PR manager, but photography is the creative counterpart to my…Read More »

gemma-gonzalez (4)
Catalonian photographer Gemma Gonzalez had our attention since the first time we saw one of her self-portraits, several years ago. We immediately realized that there’s much more to her than a pretty face; her conceptual self-portraits always seem to capture the right mood, which she achieves by her own facial expressions and poses. But also her styling, composition and post-processing add towards very personal and intimate picture. Omnipresent is a touch of darkness, adding a haze of mystery to both her persona as her…Read More »
