Brian Would's photostream |
I am a portrait photographer.
I want people to be beautiful and mysterious in my pictures...
I love to photograph consenting people and I almost never do candids, I am not a spy !!
I also like the contact from a consensual image.
I hate flash and dull studio photography,at the moment I am lteaching myself how to use the studio stuff and not get that static dead look I hate -
you have to be a master to get interesting studio stuff, or maybe i just dont like it because i learnt myself , just using whatever light is available to me.I love my reflector.
I like sharpness and detail and colour, and i like decay and darkness as well... I am eclectic and always have a camera with me,I will photograph anyone , but try to avoid cliches like the standard black and white candid of a homeless wrinkly old guy, or random ethnic wrinkly old person, it just annoys me.I love to capture beauty.everywhere.
PHOTOGRAPHERS I LIke: Mondino , Nick Knight , Steven Meisel , Herb Ritts , Mapplethorpe (some) , David LaChappelle , Man Ray...Avedon (sometimes)

sissyandrea says:
"These images of the human body are among the best I have ever seen . The compositions are superb. The use of shadow is quite artful but without the artificiality that often accompanies these techniques. Brian belongs in the pantheon of photographers for producing museum quality work."

"Brian knows beauty when he sees it. And unlike the modern, gloss-driven photographers, he doesn't mix beauty with sugar. His work is like dark chocolate - a bit bitter, but very rich in flavour."
