Still life

Jessica Edgar — Fri, 28 May 2010 05:00:29 +0000

I like discovering everyday objects which look great in a photo, there is so much ’stuff’ in studios to photograph. Still life is always nice to come back to, It teaches you so much about composition, light and placement.

Looking closely at subjects in portraiture can reveal details which you would not normally notice. Hands are so expressive , I can understand why so may artists have photographed them for years.

Black stage

This photograph was taken at 12am - again, I like the dramatic contrast of light during this time of day.

Outside

Outside midday, direct sunlight creates fantastic contrast. Especially for black and white.

Room Service

Everyday objects can be the most interesting still life subjects, simplicity, composition and colour…

Behind this curtain

Jessica Edgar — Thu, 20 May 2010 12:32:47 +0000

There is something mysterious about things which are hidden, small pockets of light. This room is totally blue even the curtain, which for me makes it a visually more interesting space to photograph.

White plates

More food…..these plates came from the restaurant as props. I like the mix of simplicity and story telling together.

Table Cloths

As part of a food series 12 months ago I photographed chefs, waitresses, food critics and friends who all love food! In this particular photo Lalia and I were just playing with our props.I really like simple photos. The less is more approach.
