Dina Litovsky 

Dina Litovsky was born in Ukrainian in 1979. She is currently living in New York City. She went to college to get her bachelors degree in psychology and later moved on to get her MFA degree for photography. She likes to take photographs that expresses subcultures and social gathering. 

This photo was chosen because I wanted to aim for her movement-type of photos that involved her capture them in the moment. It wouldn't be helpful to me if it was just photos of her pausing to get the moment because my process was trying to get my person through out the process to capture what she does. the difference that I have compared to her is that I did close-ups and my person in color because this was the series of Lindsey Vonn that Litovsky did that I connected with.

What photography means to me ~ Charise Johnson

(Marvin Heiferman - BOMB Magazine  https://bombmagazine.org/articles/marvin-heiferman/ ) Charise Johnson I like this photo because it is a mixture between art (of what you would see in paintings) and photography (of what I am learning right now). When I discovered what Photography was suppose to mean based on Marvin Heiferman’s  Photography Changes Everything , I had learned that it don’t really have an exact meaning. Photography is just a way of help you understand through different things. A couple of examples would be,  changes of where we go (as in, you could feel like you are there when you aren’t) or who we are (as in, it would define who we are when we take photos or, at least, make people relate in a way). Photography also means to me that it is just a form of art but with pictures that weren’t drawn or painted. It could also be a form of proof from the time it was taken because back then, photoshop wasn’t made and that had given people a better understanding of w...

Alec Soth ~Charise J (Digital photography 340)

  Alec Soth   (  Alec Soth | Sleeping by the Mississippi  ) Alec Soth was born in Minnesota in 1969. He went to Sarah Lawerence College. He started as a painter and moved on to be a photographer. During his photography career, he published 25 books about his work. He likes to take photos to make poetry and not document.  His work is kind of similar to mine because we are both connecting the social life of what someone does to the photography life. This is a form of showing people what others don't see. It is a way of understanding something that the person enjoys. I kind of see a connection with the cover because we both are trying to connect it to the theme of the photos before actually seeing the photos.  I want to take photos of people up close with the things that they like. I believe that it's what makes the person what they are today or what keeps them together. The items that a person keeps dear to them are what makes them who they are.

Lee Friedlander ~ Charise J

(Lee Friedlander,  https://fraenkelgallery.com/artists/lee-friedlander  ) Lee Friedlander Lee was a photographer, who photographed objects, city life, and landscapes. He believes that things in the world is art that  stares back at you. As in, when you want to draw or take a picture of an object or anything’s that looks interesting, it’s already something that starring at you waiting to be noticed. When looking for a photo to take, you don’t have to search for it.  Lee Friedlander gave me of an opportunity to expand my view of seeking out art. I chose that photo because of how the structure of the glass vase was giving the stem a bent look. It reminds me of how we use the film cameras to put it in focus because if it isn’t, it will come out looking bent and not straight like it does in front of the camera lens. The photo also reminds me of how to put the camera into focus because above the water inside the vase looks unfocused but the water part looks more clear whic...
