3 Photographers.

Erin Mushalla-
Was recommended by a friend and apparently graduated from AIB. I enjoy that her work feels very simple however you can tell a lot of thought and work went into it. I also really like her color pallet. Two is my favorite of the series posted on her site.

Laura Letinsky-
Betsy recommended her to me during one of our crits and I absolutely love her stuff. Her color pallet is also something I find intriguing. Very neutral, bland colors with flashes of vibrancy and boldness. I am not sure what her work is really about but I can see some similiarities in what I am trying to express and what she has expressed, or atleast the way I interpret it.

Simon Hogberg-
A photographer I found stumbling the internet. I think for me some of his ideas are more interesting then the actual photographs. Faces of New York for example, is a series of street photography. They are photographs of people he found unique and interesting and then interviewed them all by asking them the same few questions. The Thought Project is probably my favorite of his. He once again, photographs strangers on the streets, and asks them to tell him what they were thinking right before he appraoched them. I think its interesting to see the faces and what random things they have to say.
