Yvonne is a communication designer and works in fields like graphic design, conceptual design, culture and exhibition projects. She is very interested in Art work projects also. She has recieved awards such as The cover the Topic the beat, Urban Camouflage and 1st priza poster competition for the Karlsruche Artists Fair. And is currently looking for some interesting freelance projects.
Yvonne has many different types of photos on her website such as Licht, UniCollection, Black and White and many others. I have noticed with the Urban camouflage photos that she is very interested in making costumes with a bunch of the same objects. With this it makes the person look like they are part of the display and it is falling out everywhere. This in my opinion is a very unique way to create a camouflage as its not trying to bend in to the display but just adding on to it.
Yvonne has changed my view on camouflage in the way that I now realize that instead of trying to be something you can add on to something that could actually be there. I think this have influenced my photos because now i'm aware of the possibilities that could come out of these shots. Maybe not for all three of my shots but at least for one of them I might try and make a costume. I might put a whole bunch of chip bags together and make it look like they flew out of the vending machine.
Tommy Ingberg:
Tommy Ingberg is a visual arts photographer who was born in Sweden and is currently 33 years old. He is a self taught photographer who experiments in self reflecting, surreal photos that express has thoughts, feelings and emotions. When he was 15 he got his first camera after hours of experimenting with it he finally found his expression. For tommy he must experiment with many trial and errors before he gets a photo he likes as creativity does not come easily to him. When he gets an idea he will sketch it and then start shooting; he shoots his photos inside but trys to mimic the light outside. However when he can not take a photo inside he will take it outside. He uses his camera to create most of his image but at the end when combining the images he uses photoshop. Tommy has no fancy equipment he has a Canon EOS 7D, a Canon 24-70/2.8 lens and a few of Elinchrom flash units. He is inspired by Erwitt, Brassai, Leibovitz but when he started to learn more about other photographers many more added to his inspiration such as Picasso, Magritte and Escher. Photography is not the only artwork he has looked into also music, painting and poetry. In his photos of Reality Rearranged the faceless man is his alter ego. He enjoys what he does with great passion and has received international recognition for his work and has received multiple awards and honorable mentions. He won a prize in 2012 for his photo torn.
I actually interviewed Tommy to get a better feel about what he's all about. My final question for him was if he had any advice for a young person hoping to continue in photography. He told me that the key to being a good photographer is to work hard and never give up. The very last piece of advice he gave me was to spend as much time as I can doing what you love and to not listen to what others tell me I should be rather then what I want to be.
