Life is kind of an illusion, so is photography. Each frame is supposed to tell the audience something, something the photographer wants to deliver, wants to maintain, wants to memorize. Besides my commercial and wedding works, I am always thinking about doing something that I really love and desire, that's why I started traveling, meeting and shooting with different models. Their personalities and characteristics guided me to discover my potentials, visions and creativities. For me, photography is kind of a dream work, I see the light on spot, use it and transform it into my works according to the pre-visions I created in my mind. But I still have to be frequently challenged by shooting someone in familiar places that restricted my inspirations, like this one below.
I caught up with Phoebe by certain kind of spiritual familiarity that I can't tell, and shot with her in a couple of familiar locations that I've ever been with Caroline and Yanliang & Jing, like Harvard Campus, Boston Commons Park, etc. However, the real challenge came from the light. The sudden weather change made my use of natural light really difficult, which prevented me from getting more splendid textures from my subjects. Fortunately, Phoebe is a gorgeous model who were very friendly and easy to work with, helping me a lot to capture some subtle details in such poor light conditions. Also she is my 1st Chinese model since the project starts, and I was so happy to capture some of my most colorful frames for her, delicate and emotional.
Enjoy ~~~
