Photographic Speciality/Style:
Fine art street photography with a strong preference for black and white.
Short Bio:
After my first real camera purchase back in 2013, I was triggered and started trying everything photography-wise, ultimately narrowing my focus to mainly fine-art street photography.
My style of photographing and editing has been shaped somewhat by my graphical schooling background, with an eye for shapes, crisp compositions, and compelling light...
But all of these things are nothing without some mood, of course!
How did you get into black and white street photography?
True architecture and where I live (cities are closer to me than, for example, decent landscape spots). From the beginning, I had a preference for very graphical images (hence the black and white inclination).
So, I went shooting nearby city's (architecture) and as soon I got started, I was somewhat drawn to shooting people as well. I started trying some candid street photography and found it to be very challenging shooting strangers, so I naturally fell into a more of a fine art style of street photography as it is easier to do streetwise but not so much shooting "in the face" of people.
Nowadays I am picking up the candid way of shooting again, because my confidence has grown over the years, and I keep getting inspired by the old masters.
