Some Quick Thoughts from Chris Sanders

Not-My-Portfolio

This is a grouping of interesting photographs that I have taken and grouped.  They are Personal Photos and typically don’t appear in my regular portfolio.  They may not be “on Brand.”  I just love to shoot. I also have a tumblr feed of random images I took that I just want to show.  The widget is on the left or go to not-my-portfolio.tumblr.com.

I’ve been capturing Botanicals for sometime now. I have a personal love of landscape design and plant material.

Tempest

In my still photography work, I typically work with models that can act or actors that will model to convey realistic and natural emotion and scenarios. For this personal project, I cast actors that could give me their portrayal of the very raw emotion of anger, confusion and frustration. I produced a little mini book on MagCloud of it, that I printed and sent to select clients. I also send out an email to some of my previous clients and “hot list” prospects with a gallery link. It’s very different from my usual work but I liked to break out at times and shoot something that may not be so “on Brand.” For the set-up I worked with very strong direct light and minimal wardrobe or propping. The actors are people that I had previously cast for other projects but I knew they could give me the intensity that I wanted.
