Artist Statement
"As a portrait photographer I aim to use my technical abilities to sharpen someones character within an image. I see a portrait as a building, with the subject as its foundations, and my photographic approach the materials to create a constructed image.
"In short, my greatest pleasure is to isolate my subject within a studio, and build upon what they give me simply by being themselves.
"This particular image is taken from a commission for a band. They wanted to show that they were excited about what they do, and to appear as themselves.
"They mentioned they loved food fights and making mess..... why not?"
