ICE # 1 - Past/Future Aspirations


Past + Future
As a photographer, I’m inspired by fashion and grunge style, with manipulations done in post production. I do enjoy taking the photograph, however I am most interested in what I can do with the image afterwards and what else I can incorporate to make it more interesting in post production. I think my skills with my digital camera could be improved to create a more quality original print, which is why I hope to further build my knowledge in this course. I would like to explore night, or low light photography and play around with slow exposures, while also keeping my interests in fashion and vibrant colors in mind. I’m inspired by a Los Angeles based photography by the name of, Derek Perlman. Perlman has a distinctive stylistic approach to his work, it seems it could be called ‘high end grunge.’ Famous from his Instagram and Tumblr accounts, Perlman engages with friends, models, celebrities, and his girlfriend to create photographs that show rebellious acts in society and fashion trends. I’m inspired by his work because I enjoy the attitude his photographs depict. I’m hoping to create a similar style in my work this term, with some twists in post production.
