Early Influences
Been looking at some of the photographers that influenced me when I first started out - Robert Frank, Cartier-Bresson, William Klein, Walker Evans, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, Ralph Gibson, Clarence John Laughlin. Frank, Klein, and Evans still resonate for me. Gibson, not so much anymore. Meatyard, Laughlin & Cartier-Bresson are great, just not as influential any more. Who were your influences?
Which early influences still resonate for you?
William Klein - Candy Store, Amsterdam Avenue, New York, 1954-55
Robert Frank - Trolley—New Orleans, 1955 from The Americans
Walker Evans - Fish Market Near Birmingham, Ala., 1936
Henri Cartier-Bresson - Behind the Gare St. Lazare, 1932
Ralph Gibson - The Somnambulist, 1970
Clarence John Laughlin - The Masks Grow to Us 1947
Ralph Eugene Meatyard - Occasion for Diriment, 1962
An Honest Days Work...
We shot another ad earlier in the week for CA Bank & Trust and their "They Had Me at Hello" campaign. This time we worked with the great folks at PKL who service helicopters for the Military.
Here are some behind the scenes shots of the PKL guys plying their trade.
