While I love producing portraits that are classic and beautiful, sometimes I want to experiment with the more artistic side of photography. When looking at some fashion spreads or the work of David LaChapelle, I'm inspired and fascinated by the creative process and how artists can push boundaries. Recently, I started walking around the streets of my new city and marveling at how much more urban and old looking everything from the fixtures to the buildings look.
I snapped photos of some of the grittier aspects - the exposed brick, telephone poles, and urban skylines juxtaposed with the more beautiful side of the city such as the trees of the parks, Victorian architecture, and blue skies. Then, in Photoshop, I experimented with textures and color. The result is the first of my City Series and is far different than my normal blog posts, but I think that is kind of fun.
What do you think?
Enjoy!
