Photography by Ryan Pfluger
After my second Photo class today, I am officially overwhelmed. They don't like to ease things for you, they tend to start you off with bullshit beginner photo for 2 years and then dump you into a world of stress and fear. This weekend we must venture into the State Fair w/ our bulky 4x5 view camera and shoot portraits.Forget the cocky bitch, I'm one intimidated pussy when it comes to studio work. It's due to the lack of experience but that's why I'm in school for right? To gain it. I'm worried about loading the film-backs and processing as well as interacting with my subject. But think of this Jane, you'll see bunnies at the Fair!
Ryan Pfluger has been in my bookmarks for quite awhile. I admire his portraits since there is that connection between camera and subject that is very hard to capture. The lighting and composition is so fresh and crisp. He's one of those photographers I look to see updated work.
I'm going to try and keep updating as much as I can, especially with photographers I enjoy, but no promises. They're cracking the whip and my ass hurts, so I best get a move on.
