Michael Shawcross
I am Mike Shawcross and have been shooting for just over 2 years. I am a Unit Stills photographer on Films and TV, but I love to shoot portraits, even on set I am always looking to catch the cast and crew in a nice portrait. Working with models gives me the opportunity to experiment with angles, light and the position of the model. There is nothing more beautiful in photography as a portrait, of anyone.

Chris Garcia I spent the last year in New York & these are the portraits I have to remember it. The people in these photos are people I love or briefly met, & everything in between. That, to me, encapsulates what New York is. It can be immensely overwhelming, but if you hold on to the good experiences, brief or grand, you’ll find your home. Instagram: @chrisgarciastudio

Yvonne Kiss Photography Hi everyone, My name is Yvonne and I am a photographer from Vienna, Austria. I discovered my passion for photography at the age of 13 when i got my first camera. Later, to develop my art further, I attended an academy for photography and design. People are my main source of inspiration, that is why i specialize in staged portrait photography. By creating the comstumes, headdresses and requisites myself i can create my own little world and capture that very unique and special moment. I would describe my shooting style as feminine, romantic and imaginative. The shootings also allow me to meet new interesting people, be creative and of course have a lot of fun! www.kissphotography.at Instagram: @yvonne_kiss_photography

Anthony Pomes I started photography in July 2011 and it was drama art that was driving me to photography. I’m always trying to use something from drama which I like for it to be at the core of each photograph I make. Some examples: a scenography, an attitude, a way to shoot inspired by drama, my first art. I’m lucky to collaborate with magazines, brands and model agency from France all around the world. Then, I’m extremely lucky to collaborate with teams as well (Make-up artist, Hairstylist, Stylist, Editor or Assistant), they make my works even more wonderful. Not my portraits, I’m trying to catch an emotion, a look, a part of a soul even my model doesn’t know yet. I’m often pushing my models out of their comfort zone, in term of emotion and attitude. I want something strong and new. Something that I could really be proud of. That’s why drama inspires me. Literature too actually. I’m mixing those arts and fashions, and I think it’s the best to work : mixing one inspirations and your passions. Photography is sort of a therapy gor me and it keeps me creative. And to be honest I like that the role of stage director applies to photography.

Mike Stacey My current photographic work is centred on capturing something intimate of the subject. Something more intimate than nudity or any other physical aspect. A moment where there is a sense of overpowering presence. A moment of intense connection. A moment of sensuality and experience. A moment of humanity. A moment of beauty. These are the things that fuel my creative passion and more broadly, fuel my life. Words are inadequate to address some of the aspects I’m talking about. This is the great power of photography. You can use it to say the things you want to say in a more meaningful way. http://mikestacey.com Instagram: @mikestaceyphoto

Andrea Patruno My name is Andrea Patruno, I’m Italian and I’ve just graduated in ‘3D Animation & Visual Effects’ in England. I’ve always loved photography, since I took my first picture. When I finally had enough money to buy my own camera, my passion exploded. Now I aim to become a Cinematographer, as it combines my two greatest passions: photography and cinema. As you can see in my photos I tend to shoot always the same subject: my girlfriend. I love her so much and she’s truly incredible. It’s hard to explain but, probably because of our relationship, I am the only one who takes beautiful photos of her, and she is the only one who makes me take beautiful photos. Photography is a very big passion of mine, I love practicing it and exploring new and different techniques. But most of all, I love improving myself, learning everyday from the masters, and making my own mistakes. It’s incredible how much I’ve learnt, looking back through the years, and how much I still have to learn. But learning something you love is not a pain, it’s a pleasure. Loving what you do always makes you want to learn more, do more. This is, very briefly, my story. Still very short, I’m only a beginner. andreapatruno.weebly.com Instagram: @pastrunho
