Think about it

Wenn mich Bilder ansprechen, dann möchte ich sie auch haben bzw. hier vorstellen. Nach einem netten Austausch via Mail hat Christopher Loren Ewers mir meine Favoriten zugemailt und zu jedem Bild ein paar Zeilen geschrieben.

Er ist übrigens Fotograf und Filmemacher. Studiert hat er an der New England School of Photography & Boston University, er lebt heute in New York. Schwerpunkte seiner Arbeit sind Portraits jeglicher Art – Portraits, die dazu anregen, sich Gedanken über die Protagonisten zu machen. Was denkt derjenige gerade und in welcher Situation steckt er? Man kann also viel hineininterpretieren in die Aufnahmen, großartige Aufnahmen wie ich finde – aber seht selbst und vielen Dank an Chris für die Bilder und seine Kommentare!

The above 3 pictures:
I photographed Emily in Brooklyn on March 20th, 2010 as a part of an ongoing portrait series of people that I meet on my morning commute into the city. My background is a combination of both cinematography and photojournalism conversely, so I like to explore the best of both. I create a contrived scenario and lighting, but with a subject that I know little to nothing about. I set a scene, then document what happens within it.

I photographed Dawn Dunning of “The Bambi Killers” on June 10th, 2010 at the Chelsea Hotel in NYC. Dawn was a great collaborator and is an amazing artist.
