I've decided to start a new series for my blog called the Featured Photographer Series! Once a month I will choose a photographer that particularly inspires me to feature and write about. This will not only be a great way to become better at articulating what inspires me as an artist, but also highlight fantastic photographers that are creating influential work.
We're going to kick this series off with an awesome minimal/urban landscape photographer:
Kyle Jeffers
@kyle_jeffers
I stumbled upon his Instagram earlier this year and I have to say, his photography has helped to motivate a large shift in my personal work. His style is a graphic approach to the finer details of the everyday, always displaying an impressive consideration for color even when there almost isn't any. Kyle has crafted a way to take arguably mundane subjects around him and make them, in a way, sexy with his use of minimalism, leading lines, and color palettes that command attention.
Kyle has inspired me to take a closer look at my surroundings to find the hidden beauty in objects typically overlooked. I urge you to check out more of his work on his portfolio, or follow him on instagram. I could scroll through his feed for hours.
