Your customers will never tire of being inspired by these images of Beauty and Splendor
Women. What woman wouldn't want to reveal her beauty, show her charm by being treated like a princess?
What woman would not want to forget, for a half-day photoshoot, her daily duties and worries?
This is what I think when I have the chance and the responsibility to have a Portrait photo session with a woman.
I love women because they give me the possibility to take care of them and create a space and time where their beauty may spread and flourish.
Most of the women I take shots to I have never seen before. So I study their photos and start to imagine the right location, poses, accessories, and dress.
Recently I started to create with my hands, for every single woman I have to portray, a new dress.
Mostly made with...nothing. Crape paper, small pieces of cloth, newspapers...
Love the magic that happens when they see their beauty glorified by dress, light, location, poses, and dialogue.
Trust and dialogue are the key to understand, appreciate their diversity and make their beauty ..happen.
What will you find in this book?
- Photos of normal girls, women, and most of them are NOT models, believe me..that I contacted for a shooting session.
- Simplicity at work. It doesn't take that long to make a woman's beauty flow in the air and fill the space around you.
- Glances that every lucky man would like to have the chance to meet
- Silence. When beauty happens every word is too many..
The Portraits in this book are the gifts all the women gave me when they agreed to have a photographic session with me.
And I want to give back to you these gifts in photos for your eyes, your suggestions, your pleasure.

Stunning images are beautifully presented alongside biographical essays that enhance the soulful nature of this unique portfolio.
Many people wear a lifetime of experiences on their face, yet who that person is and what they have experienced often remains a mystery. In Resilient, Wayne Simpson's first book of photography, readers will encounter a collection of portraits accompanied by individual stories of inspiration, tragedy, and humanitarianism. The book's overall narrative is an emotional journey in which readers will inevitably see aspects of themselves in the stories of some truly remarkable individuals.
With compassion and respect, Wayne Simpson has befriended individuals and discovered personal stories such as an 89-year-old homeless man's struggle to survive, an 18-year search for a lost brother, a man's 40-year devotion to building a ten thousand square foot nuclear fallout shelter, and many more. Intertwined with each story is the subnarrative of the photographer learning who he is as each connection is forged.
Always compelling and at times haunting, Simpson's portraits keep storytelling at the forefront. The atmosphere and mood are often crafted with multiple studio lights on location. Many of Simpson's portraits are graced with intricate details, each adding additional layers of complexity to the portrait and in turn making each portrait a visual story on its own.
Автор: Jennifer K. Levasseur Название: Through Astronaut Eyes: Photographing Early Human Spaceflight ISBN: 1557539316 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781557539311 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 27580.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Featuring over seventy images from the heroic age of space exploration, Through Astronaut Eyes presents the story of how human daring along with technological ingenuity allowed people to see the Earth and stars as they never had before. Photographs from the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs tell powerful and compelling stories that continue to have cultural resonance to this day, not just for what they revealed about the spaceflight experience, but also as products of a larger visual rhetoric of exploration. The photographs tell us as much about space and the astronauts who took them as their reception within an American culture undergoing radical change throughout the turbulent 1960s. This book explores the origins and impact of astronaut still photography from 1962 to 1972, the period when human spaceflight first captured the imagination of people around the world. Photographs taken during those three historic programs are much admired and reprinted, but rarely seriously studied. This book suggests astronaut photography is particularly relevant to American culture based on how easily the images were shared through reproduction and circulation in a very visually oriented society. Space photography's impact at the crossroads of cultural studies, the history of exploration and technology, and public memory illuminates its continuing importance to American identity.
Pictures and Progress explores how, during the nineteenth century and the early twentieth, prominent African American intellectuals and activists understood photography's power to shape perceptions about race and employed the new medium in their quest for social and political justice. They sought both to counter widely circulating racist imagery and to use self-representation as a means of empowerment. In this collection of essays, scholars from various disciplines consider figures including Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, Ida B. Wells, Paul Laurence Dunbar, and W. E. B. Du Bois as important and innovative theorists and practitioners of photography. In addition, brief interpretive essays, or "snapshots," highlight and analyze the work of four early African American photographers. Featuring more than seventy images, Pictures and Progress brings to light the wide-ranging practices of early African American photography, as well as the effects of photography on racialized thinking.

During the early twentieth century, Shanghai was the center of China's new media culture. Described by the modernist writer Mu Shiying as "transplanted from Europe" and “paved with shadows,” for many of its residents Shanghai was a city without a past paradoxically haunted by the absent past’s traces. In Shadow Modernism William Schaefer traces how photographic practices in Shanghai provided a forum within which to debate culture, ethnicity, history, and the very nature of images. The central modernist form in China, photography was neither understood nor practiced as primarily a medium for realist representation; rather, photo layouts, shadow photography, and photomontage rearranged and recomposed time and space, cutting apart and stitching places, people, and periods together in novel and surreal ways. Analyzing unknown and overlooked photographs, photomontages, cartoons, paintings, and experimental fiction and poetry, Schaefer shows how artists and writers used such fragmentation and juxtaposition to make visible the shadows of modernity in Shanghai: the violence, the past, the ethnic and cultural multiplicity excluded and repressed by the prevailing cultural politics of the era and yet hidden in plain sight.

Insightful essays add depth and perspective from longtime expats who now call the country home. The result is an engrossing unusual visual journey through the Land of the Rising Sun that will linger in the readers memory long after the books cover is closed.
