Andrea LaBarge Mills – Self Portrait

July 30th, 2010 by Andrea LaBarge Mills

I really kind of dreaded doing this assignment, because it’s a huge challenge to see what the camera sees from in front of it. So it was funny to me in retrospect that I chose to do a double exposure – as if a single shot wasn’t bad enough! But in looking at the work of my fellow TIAPB contributors, I really loved Alexa Miller’s fashion work with multiple images, so I had to go where inspiration took me. Here are some of the images that informed my self portrait:

Alan Gastelum- Self Portrait

July 29th, 2010 by alangastelum

I have always been a fan of Ryan Schude’s photography, especially his multi person landscapes, mostly found in his book “one” on his website. I was specifically inspired by the smoke within a few of those images and I wanted to experiment with smoke more. Thanks Ryan for the inspiration!

For my self-portrait I used Jennie Warren’s photography as inspiration. She always uses really fun colors and interesting angles, sometimes getting very close to the subject. This was a verrrry challenging assignment for me!

Manjari Sharma in Group show Sultry II Art Hampton’s 52 Editions

July 19th, 2010 by manjari

Recently my work was shown at the Art Hampton’s 2010 art fair. The following day a group show titled Sultry II opened in Brooklyn that included my work as well. Both events were quite well received. If you happen to swing through Brooklyn anytime until August 14 please stop in if you get the chance at Kris Graves Projects in Dumbo. Sultry II will still be up! I am attaching an invite and here is a recent entry on my blog with some pictures of the show and tell from the opening nights to both events.

Also one of my images that was selected by 52 Editions is now available as a limited editioned print for purchase. Please click here to view it! Here is the image for your viewing pleasure.

Manjari Sharma, Self-Portrait

I am not one to usually take self portraits so I tried a hand at something that allowed me to somehow hide but still be a dominant part of the image. I was inspired by Alan Gastelum’s color sensibility for my palette choice.

Ryan Schude – Self Portrait

I used Corey Seeholzer’s gunman as a reference.

Jennifer Becker-Self-Portrait

July 1st, 2010 by jenniferbecker

I really enjoyed this assignment but it was definitely one of the most difficult for me. Being pregnant I wanted to make sure I showed off the belly (love handles and all) and did something that was a little out of the ordinary for a pregnant shot. I was immediately drawn to Lauren Ward’s work. I absolutely love how natural, spontaneous, and fun her work is. There is also a lot of motion which I wanted to really pull from. It was fun to try something different.

A portrait of a the band Eating Faces. This shot showcases the craziness that is the percussion and sound of the band. This angle was Initially concepted by Collins Schude, the drummer. We took it to the next level by squeezing all the accessories and equipment into very tight frame. I then shot from the balcony down 4 stories with a telephoto lens.

I met Thom in March. He lives in my building. He has done modeling in the past but doesn’t want to do it anymore. I made it a quick and hopefully not too painful shoot ….we put a couch on him!

Tamar Levine-Squeeze

This is Melissa and her boyfriend Mitchell. They live in a very small RV. They are characters on Hollywood Boulevard but are forced to move to Las Vegas because Hollywood no longer allows characters to walk the strip. I love photographing Melissa and am sad to see her go! This is the first time I photographed her inside her house.
