Matt Stuart

My girlfriends father enjoys doing a bit of photography and we were talking about photography and the variety of styles used. He suggested I  have a look at Matt Stuart's work as he said he liked his approach to photography. I had a browse through Matt Stuart's website and was pleasantly surprised. At first glance you would imagine the scenes had been set up and choreographed to get the picture the way he wanted it. However when researching the artist he explains how he 'spends a great deal of time walking the streets to capture moments'.  Matt also goes on to explain that to get the perfect life picture he doesn't ask for permission but trys to be a quick and discreet as possible and move on. 

Matt Stuart’s photography has an element of spontaneity  as he takes pictures out of the blue after walking around all day for an image. He also shows he has a great eye for  choosing the place where he feels will be the most productive but I am sure that would come with experience because it can’t just be  luck that gets him these sorts of images.



















As you can see he has also done a bit of advertising for sony ericsson . I really enjoyed looking through his photos and it gives some inspiration for  future.
