Four Photographers Who Inspire Me (Trent Parke, Fan Ho, Todd Hido & Alexey Titarenko)

Multi-exposure street photography

Four photographers that inspire me to branch out from landscape photography are Trent Parke, Fan Ho, Alexey Titarenko and Todd Hido. Trent Parke's work, The Black Rose, gave me the idea to undertake my own street photography and art photography project that tells the human story of Alaska, not just about the natural beauty but the people who live in and visit it.

Fan Ho's incredible black and white photography helped me to start looking for contrasts, shapes and shadows.

Alexey Titarenko's work, City of Shadows, inspired me to take long exposures of groups of people or things that people were driving.

Todd Hido's moody work using liminal spaces and atmosphere and mood were crucial in helping me envision a new type of possibility in urban and landscape photography.

Join me as I examine the work of these four incredible photographers and try to imitate and apply their styles, twisting their ideas into my own and using them as a jump off point to create something new.

Street Photography in Anchorage, Alaska (Video)

In this episode I travel to the "big city" of Anchorage, Alaska to run some errands. But while I'm there, I might as well try to channel my inner Alex Webb and attempt some street photography and cityscape photography, two styles of photography which I am not very experienced at. I start off near the Atwood Theatre, meander through some of the some in the downtown area, frame up the Captain Cook Hotel, and try to find any other thing I can that looks interesting to point my Nikon D810 camera at. Also, while I'm downtown, I check out a local photography shop and purchase a 80-400mm telephoto lens and on the way home stop at Turnagain Pass along the Seward Highway to test it out.

Photography in Colorado's Roaring Fork Valley (Video)

In this episode my Spring tour of the Southwest continues. I visit Glenwood Springs and Carbondale, Colorado. Without a car or my full photography setup, I do my best to capture some landscape photography and street photography in Glenwood Springs and Carbondale, Colorado. I check out the Colorado River, Roaring Fork River, downtown Glenwood Springs, Doc Holliday Tavern, and the historic Hotel Colorado. Ultimately I captured some macro, street, landscape, Pep Ventosa-style multiexposure, and timelapse images that I was modestly happy with.
