Inside a Photographer's Studio

Interior of studio, Frederick C. Berte, Jr., Tremont, N.Y.C. (photographer), c. 1887, Written on reverse “Studio 1887 Mr. EJ Pearl Year of the Blizzard,” Winterthur Library

This is such a beautiful little studio of photographer, Frederick C. Berte Jr., taken in 1887. 

I wish people would make offices cozy like this, with some of their personality thrown in, instead of mass produced art, and office funiture...

The Art of Humor in Photography

"Buyer's Remorse"

Andrew B. Myers Is a photographer and image maker who's work is often 

characterized by it's use of color and composition, and it's use of subject matter such as 

pop culture, nostalgia, and situational humor. 

There is nothing more unique to me than having a certain wall in your home that is 

dedicated to your unique sense of humor.

The Art of The Rebel...

Some of my favorite photographs are of a rebellious moment in a place in time.
Scott Pommier is just that kind of photographer. His pieces make me want to take a road trip with no suitcase, and no destination in mind, drive really fast on a long,empty, never-ending road, buy a one way ticket to a place I have never been, and sleep, drink, and eat with not a care in the world. I could go on and on...How might you rebel?

I started shooting photos of my friends skateboarding. All I wanted to do for the longest time was to take pictures like the ones that I saw in skateboarding magazines, and I learned to do just that. I shot for skateboarding magazines for about ten years, now people ask me what I shoot and I don’t quite know what to tell them.  I don’t feel like I’m an action sport photographer, a commercial photographer, a lifestyle photographer or a fashion photographer exactly, but a little bit of all of those things. Of the pictures that I’ve shot, the ones that I like best, fall in between some of those lines; an action photo that feels more like a fashion shot or portrait that borders on reportage. I spent years learning the skill of photography before I really figured out how I wanted to shoot and what I wanted to shoot. I take pictures of what I think is interesting and significant and beautiful.
