[Filmaroid Wednesday] Philip-Lorca Dicorcia

Dagnushka — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 23:16:34 +0000

My new favorite Photographer: Philip-Lorca Dicorcia has an incredible eye and absolutely stunning prints. I am specifically taken aback by his book A Storybook Life which showcases pictures all over the United States as well as Europe.

The disparate photographs assembled here were made over the course of twenty years. None of them were originally intended to be used in this book. By ordering and shaping them I tried to investigate the possibilities of narrative both within a single image and especially in relation to the other photographs. A Storybook Life is an attempt to discover the possibilities of meaning in the interaction of seemingly unrelated images in the hope that content can constantly mutate according to both the external and internal condition of the viewer, but remain meaningful because of it’s inherent, but latent content. The conscious and subconscious decisions made in editing the photographs is the real work of A Storybook Life. -Philip-Lorca diCorcia

With this fresh inspiration I am now even more excited to shoot during my trip to New York this weekend!

Here are a couple DiCorcia images I could find online

With my recent revisitation of my own 35mm film camera, I have decided to showcase work every Wednesday beyond just Polaroid. Don’t worry though – I’ll still be shooting Polaroid. I’m really loving my new instax pola camera – especially loving the fact I can drive to the store and actually buy film for it. You may recognize this lovely lady from last week’s Polaroid Wednesday. I had been dying to go out on location and shoot so we found a couple great spots in East Austin to capture Alyssa. These were my favorite shots from the color film roll. Such a natural beauty she is!

[Polaroid Wednesday] Wild Horses

Dagnushka — Wed, 03 Nov 2010 17:15:43 +0000

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom, but I don’t have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let’s do some living after love dies
Wild horses couldn’t drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we’ll ride them some day
-Rolling Stones

[Polaroid Wednesday] A. Gnädinger

“The photographs featured in this book tell the story of my search for authentic beauty…Rather than succumb to the perfect, yet ultimately artificial, beauty afforded by image retouching and manipulation, I wanted to bring authenticity back to modern fashion photography. The subject of this photographic project is a collection of 100 women shot at various locations throughout the world. The creative impulse was to reveal the subjective qualities of the models, to give voice and shape to their unique personalities. As my medium, I chose Polaroid film, as it represents an ideal counter-weight to the retouched visual language of our times. Polaroids are a real-time medium; they freeze moments in time as they occur, unmanipulated, unembellished and utterly spontaneous. The analog nature of this medium is almost anachronistic, yet it helps convey a sense of authenticity through the manner in which the image slowly appears and perfectly depicts reality, blemishes and all.”

-A. Gnädinger’s book 100 girls on polaroid.

I desperately want this book.

[Polaroid Wednesday] Playing with Fire

Dagnushka — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 01:08:15 +0000

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

[Polaroid Wednesday] The Evening Hour

Dagnushka — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 23:54:35 +0000

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.

-Robert Frost

Hope you guys are having a lovely evening.

[Photoshoot] Alice in Wonderland

Dagnushka — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 18:30:55 +0000

The crew of Studio Gold - a new production team in the works here in Austin (consisting of myself, Laura Kaululaau and Carlos Seckler) – had the great privilege of working with the incredibly talented hair stylist Shawna Parvin, model Clancy, and clothing designer Amanda Yilmaz this past Sunday. After shooting Amanda’s two other amazing garments inspired by the Queen of Hearts and the Mad Hatter in the studio, we found a couple beautiful locations to shoot the gorgeous Alice dress for the grand finale. We’ve been busy working and collaborating with some talented creatives so stay tuned for more images from other editorial shoots with our dear friend and wardrobe stylist Luis Ramirez.
