Metamorphose by Fontenoy’s (slit scan photography series):

The human body and skin and portraits are all of my favorite things. i love feeling vulnerable for a person i dont even know.

i. it's getting bad again
ii. this week i am struggling with self doubt and the transition from iced coffee to hot coffee
iii. i want to puke and sleep for six days
iv. i still can’t sit on your couch without shaking
v. i need other people to validate that i am important because i can’t do it for myself
vi. no one else has ever told me that i am desirable with the lights on

This girl was hired to go out and take pictures of this (handsome) man. He asked for her to marry him the day they met and they got married and they've been together for around 2 years now. But I love the pictures she takes of them together. I can feel their passion. I dont know if I like their story or their photos more.

"Boss Bitch: WeTheUrban Certified! 21 year old photography major, Lindsay Bottos, has turned cruel, anonymous messages that she received on Tumblr ‘selfies’ into an art project. 

The project calls attention to the harsh words people feel emboldened to say about others - especially women - in an online environment, things that they would most likely never say to someone’s face.

It was the images of herself that drew the most vitriol, with internet trolls telling her she was fat, too thin, ugly, stupid, a slut - and one told her they wanted her to die."

"The moon is a shining point that brings people together from different countries, of different nationalities and cultures - and everyone who gets in its orbit does not forget it ever. it gives fairytale and poetry in our prosy and mercantile world," Leonid writes. "The moon helps us to overcome our loneliness in the universe by uniting us around it." 

what if your left side of your face matched the right? or vise versa?
what if your "good side" was both sides?

They say the more symmetrical your face the more "attractive" you are.
no you look scary and weird.

This is the first milk bath photograph I have loved since Whoopi.

Both painting and photography becomes one.

This has made me think a lot differently about mixed media. And about art in general. I love that.

"The Paper Skin. 

Introducing the Limited Edition Fedrigoni.

 

 

 

A piece of tailor made paper merges an extraordinary packaging concept and an exceptional product into one. Sold in Fedrigoni showrooms only, the limited Edition of Leica Cameras is wrapped so intimately by fine paper, the “unboxing” reminds of a paper sample book and turns into a Fedrigoni brand experience. Finally, the paper also replaces the cameras traditional leather banderole and becomes an integral part of it and not just its packaging."

I recently watched this documentary on Netflix and highly recommend watching it. This guy will shut down streets to take these beautiful images. 

That is a real baby.. they waited like 6 hours for it to fall asleep and take this photo

Heres the trailer:

"I've been suffering from Major Depression for the past 4 years and it has manifested itself throughout that period in many ways, photography included."
Hopkins was ready to delete these photos when his close friend said no and posted them on Reddit. Beautiful captivating work. Flawless editing and a great coping/depicting of mental illness.
