Thomas Kettner

Thomas Kettner is a photographer best known for his work in beauty and fashion. I came across him a couple weeks ago and found his work to be really interesting. He captures creative angles, powerful highlights, and fluent motion in his work and can be seen throughout his portfolio. I love the contrast he presents in his work where you can see such a soft but embedded power of light striking specific points on the model (photo two). I really like how in one of his series under his special projects (photo 3) there was so much movement. In this particular photo, clearly the focus is not on any of the models which reminds me of what we have mentioned in class where you do not know what the photographer is thinking or what he wants you to see in the photograph. I think the idea that there is so much movement but sit a crisp detail of information like the sweat on the singers. Its a great photograph with plenty of movement around composition.
