REMIX-ing
Posted by Dean Bradshaw | Filed under Techniques, concept photography
I’m a sucker for graphic art. I’m especially digging the increasing amounts of collaborations between graphic artists and photographers, mixing mediums and creating some amazing work in the process.
I have been interested in this field for a while so when I saw that the exceptionally talented Peter Nudo lived not far from me in sunny San Diego… I got in touch with him in the hopes that we could work on a project together.
Turned out Peter was at a similar stage in his career to me and eager to sink his teeth into some new projects. He has an infectious enthusiasm for art and design much like myself and we hit it off.
Here is one of the fruits of our chat…a ‘remix’ of one of my images that wouldn’t have otherwise seen the light of day…
Kudos to Pete for making something of this image – he’s just relocated to San Fran and is going to go FAR!

Photographing People: Just do it!

Photographing People – Strangers – People who aren’t models.
This is probably one of the biggest hurdles many photographers find themselves having to face, especially those interested in pursuing travel photography, photojournalism or street photography.
I don’t profess to be an expert in the subject, but I am fascinated by the topic and over a series of blog posts, I will endeavor to offer what I have learnt about shooting strangers, particularly in a travel context, after a reasonable amount of time spent photographing people in Africa and Southeast Asia.
My first piece of advice, and probably the most valuable is: “Just do it”
Yes, there are many profound lessons to be learnt from Nike’s well known slogan!
