Hiroshi Watanabe was born in Sapporo, Japan. He graduated from Department of Photography, College of Art, at Nihon University in 1975. He moved to Los Angeles after graduation and became involved in the production of TV commercials, eventually working as a producer. He later established his own production company and produced numerous commercials. He received an MBA degree from UCLA Business School in 1993. In 1995 his passion for photography rekindled, and since then he has traveled worldwide extensively, photographing what he finds intriguing at that moment and place. In 2000 he closed the production company in order to devote himself entirely to the art and became a full time photographer. His work has been published around the world, and has been exhibited in many galleries across the United States and Japan.

Born in Canada, but now living in Buffalo, NY, Luke Copping is an international photographer and artist. Specializing in beauty, style, and portraiture, his camera work captures everyone from fashion designers to counterculture artists to corporate entities – without looking away. While Luke’s work has been used by CNN.com and a variety of magazines (Auxiliary Magazine, T&M Magazine, Creep Magazine, Artvoice, Artery Magazine, Fashion Served Online, and many more), he has not lost his sense of humor. In high energy shoots, Luke focuses on quirky details and artful simplicity of each subject.

I came across Jenn Violetta’s photostream on Flickr the other day and I just had to share. Click here for the link.

” I am deeply interested in people. People are everything to me, they are my source for happiness, sadness and of course inspiration. My aim is to create “real” images, I attempt to expose what is going on deep within the psyche of my subjects. My photographs are of authentic people with their emotional and physical baggage exposed. When I create I tend and prefer to portrait people I have come to know intimately and have connected with. I come from Stockholm, Sweden but I have lived in Edinburgh since 1998. Perhaps my attitudes are linked to my nationality; I have been intrigued and puzzled by the differences in culture. Here, the page 3 girls smile invitingly at us on a daily basis, but to introduce humanity “as it is” tends to offend people. My photographs are a reaction to the fake visual culture of advertising and fashion. I do not set out to offend, but I feel an image should provoke a feeling; it should inspire or trigger something very deep within the observer. People are amazing and portraying them as they are is what I do. ” - Jannica Honey

” My work aims to explore the human connections and subtle nuances that whisper into the ear of our every day. Much of my work is rooted in the ideas of mind, body, seamlessness and time. This is largely because my deepest beliefs lie in the principles of buddhism, the integration of art and life, and the preservation of beautiful moments. I am nomadic by nature and am inspired each day by the nothingness that resides in all things. ” - Erin Mulvehill
