photographer 9: Anna Gaskell

She started with self-portraits and now does works reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland.

Her work is kind of dark. And I kind of like it. 

photographer 8: Gary Schneider

His work is... INTERESTING. So weird and so normal at the same time. That doesn't make sense.

Look at his images:



photographer 7: Vincent Laforet

So I'm not an idiot for not recognizing him by name...

born 1975 and began photography at 15.

Runs a must read blog for any and every person dabbling in the photography realm of creativity.

He has done toy camera work, his style is strong whether the images vibrant or not, using celebraties or just everyday people. He did some documentary work of NOLA Katrina. My favorite is the intensity of "Games" and less of the photoshop work.

Photographer 6: Duane Michals

The weirder the better.

I love story lines, I dig his work. Duane Michals uses the use of photo sequence to portray an idea or story. Why limit yourself to one image when you can attack a subject with many?

Photographer 5: Weegee

I picked this artist, because of his name... I'm so glad. So odd and brilliant. His photos are raw and honest.

Weegee (Aurthur Fellig) born in the Ukraine and moved to America 1909.
He chose to nudists, circus performers, freaks and street people to capture.

I find it lovely.
