VII: Couldn't pick just three





I visited the Underground Horror Fest in Tulsa this weekend.

The photographer's style I chose to emulate was Franco Pagetti. I like the chaos and emotion his work shows. The first photograph uses the subject's surroundings and environment to inform the audience about the subject without them actually looking at the camera, like Pagetti. The second is similar in that the woman in the foreground hints at the nature of the patient's injuries, also the chaos and sympathy felt by onlookers is evident. Then, the portrait in black and white allows you to focus more on the subject than his surroundings, while Pagetti uses unusual angles to add interest I'm a little too linear to mimic that. Finally, the last captures the movement you see in a lot of his work.
