Photographer Inspiration - Payton McIntyre

My photographer of choice of whom inspired me this six weeks was, Payton McIntyre, a 

talented and radiant friend of mine. I met Payton in my second year of this photography 

class, and im lucky to have had the privilege to be introduced to different artists and styles 

my senior year. I've had an appreciation of her style of works of which are art, made to 

make you feel something. Her works are fun and visually aesthetic to young viewers. 

Several of my favorite shoots were of people, their faces and 

features were made exaggerated, and a selection of other photos, were made of vibrant 

colors and dark contrasts. One of her more captivating shoots was her distortion shoot with 

dark contrasts, It gave a fresh expression to certain features of the face and placed them on 

different people in a way that was odd but at most, creative. In another shoot, her use of 

vibrant patterns projected onto her models, created definition and vibrate contrasts. Her 

other photo shoot with the use of lightbox, she used ice and food coloring to make vibrant 

pictures that looked so surreal. Angsty teens are her specialty and she makes them pieces of 

art. 

In seeing her recent photos of our friend's senior portraits, I paid her to take my senior 

photos and she did an amazing job, I was so impressed with the results for this being out of


her comfort zone. she was really fun to work with and she made the process so easy. 

I admire how she challenges herself in everything she does and her works are displayed 

flawless.   

Payton dear, you definitely have a bright future ahead of you no matter what you choose to 

aspire.

Music Inspiration

I thought i'd try and do both because I cant decide which one i'd like to do more! :) 

going through my favorite CD covers and recreating them

as well as choosing my favorite songs and create an image that showcases the mood or any verse from the song.

To recreate CD covers i'd take advantage of the studio and any other images I can take elsewhere.

(models and options of songs are still being decided)  

Painting with Light

I've wanted to try this since last year, but painting with light using steel wool 

since this requires the night sky and a long exposure i'll be borrowing one of the tripods, and the shutter release. (location undecided)

Intense Wildlife

I've seldom taken animal photos let alone capture wildlife, I find animals to be the best models. I want to take a trip to the zoo for these, maybe even get a few of the deer in my backyard. For this i'm going to try out the macro lens (hey i've never really used it but once!) and see what kind of close intense shots I can get.
