albert watson photography



i came across this website when looking at the lists of photographers in the 'supporting information' file on the VLE.

albert watson is a photographer i hadnt heard of before, i am glad i came across his work and enjoyed looking through all of his work, there are many aspects of his work that i really like and even though i feel fashion photography isnt my strong point working with people is defiantly something i want to do more, i want to improve many things in the area such as becoming more confident when working with and directing models.


This is a very powerful photograph and i think the darkness of the image works extremely well, making it moody and atmospheric. 
this is another photograph by Albert Watson that i love, it is such a simple image yet it is very effective, the use of black and white works well and the rain on the window makes the photograph, when i start to shoot my own images with models i need to take inspiration from photographers like this to help myself with creative and new ideas.


i chose this photograph because it is simple and relaxed, the image uses a beautiful location and simple poses to make this photograph, location is something i need to take into consideration when working with models, making sure i check out the area before taking the models there so that everything can run as planned.

the location and composition of this photograph is extremely beautiful this would require planning ahead for the location and the time for day for the sun. the model is unusually posed but i feel it works well in the photograph.
this is another photograph of Watson's that i really like it shows a young girl sat inside what looks like a cafe and it appears that the photographer has taken the photograph through the window as you can see reflection  from what is outside.

this photograph stood out to me because it is bright and colorful, i like the poses and in the future i would like to shoot something like this, the poses are good and the lighting isn't too harsh on the models face and body.
this is one of my favourite photographs i like the models pose and love the colour in her hair which really stands out against the darkness of the train, the location is perfect and this is something that makes a photograph, and is something i will need to look into in detail including gaining permission to areas that i want to shoot in.
