i love to share about those who inspire me artistically or photographically. this is one in a series of the many artists who’ve had an impact on me and the way i see. this post is about a photographer i’d call a minimalist landscape photographer. he often shoots with film, and has an incredibly interesting perspective on tones - no hugely saturated tones here, yet they still have the impact of those huge saturation images. i’ve taken a couple of his online courses and finally broke down and treated myself to his latest book offering which i couldn’t be more excited to receive. this photographer is in my top five favorites as well as influential, and his name is bruce percy.

i love to share about those who inspire me artistically or photographically. this is one in a series of the many artists who’ve had an impact on me and the way i see. this post is about a large format film photographer who tells some of the best stories in a single photo that i can recall seeing. many people call him cinematic although he shoots stills, but i would agree. it feels like a movie, and it feels like an entire movie - not just a screen capture of a scene in the movie. how he does it, i have no idea, but Gregory Crewdson is an incredible photographer who i someday hope to emulate.
