Dear Photograph, take a picture of a picture from the past in the present.
In May 2011, Taylor Jones was sitting with his family in Ontario when his mother pulled out an old photo album. Among the hundreds of shots was one of Jones’s younger brother at his third birthday party. “He was sitting in front of his Winnie-the-Pooh birthday cake,” Jones recalls. “It was weird – because my [...]

Loretta Lux’ Drummer boy
Part of her haunting and surreal Works IV, The Drummer was made with 6 lights. Sometimes you need a lot of light to make it appear that you don’t. Camera: Nikon D2X with 50mm lens, set on tripod 2,4m from the child. Shot at 1/60, f8, ISO 100. Lighting: Since Loretta’s goal is to create an super-flat image, [...]
50 reasons NOT to date a photographer
