Do all (twenty something?) photographers look alike?
Tom Monego said:
Hey, I'm far removed from my 20's (have a 21 year old son), I do work for several 20 something artists. If the 20 somethings are having fun, making a living, and paying my bills, who cares how they look. Tom Who said we care? But why/how do they pay your bills? -- Dallas There are only two types of music: Rock and Roll. Drop pants for email |

Yesterday when I went to a local store to get some chemicals A photo club must have been meeting or something and the majority of them were these younger guys dressed in the same style (urban artiste hip type style, with goatees and the same thick black glasses. It was weird but interesting. ... Are you sure that wasn't that "flash mob" thing (or what they call it)? Whats a flash mob? ... That's when relatively large number of similarly dressed people enter the store at approximately the same time, ask the guy at the counter how much would it cost to put a roll of E6 film through C41 processing, buy a lens pen paying in quarters, then sneeze and leave. It is a hobby, I guess. -- Best regards, Andrey Tarasevich |

It was weird but interesting. It seems a lot of work is being put to fit into some kind of artiste stereotype look. Anyone notice this in the field? Most of the shooters I meet overseas/US on assignment here do not look at all like that interesting looking crowd. Going to artwalks in Seattle, my observation has been that the quality of the work in the gallery is inversely proportional to the quality of the party and the level of artsie hipster pretense being displayed. Certainly there are people who are spending more time posing like an artist than being an artist. But on the flip side, the artists doing their work disappear from public view, they're too busy. So you are left to observe only poser photographer stereotypes. The real photographers, I imagine, are out in the field shooting something and you're not there with them. -- Cheers, www.indiegamedesign.com Brandon Van Every Seattle, WA 20% of the world is real. 80% is gobbledygook we make up inside our own heads. |
