About.

34 years old.  Worked as a Getty Images staff photographer, working in news, sports and entertainment.  Moved on to Freelance working with Associated Press, MTV, Fox, Capitol/EMI Records and Katy Perry.

Cameras and lenses.

Leica M(240), M Monochrom, Leica M9-P, Nokton 35/1.2.  Nikon D4, D800E, D600, 24-70, 70-200, 85/1.4G.  Profoto, Speedlight and LED lighting kits.

What’s important.

“As an individual, the photography experience is most important.  The images come second, because when I’m gone, the experience in life is more meaningful to me than the pictures I leave behind.”

Interesting fact.

“What got me started in photography at age 16, was being fired from KFC, pushing me to work in photographic retail, and thus eventually pursuing a photography career.  I was also Australian, National Karate Champion a few years in a row and ranked 4th in the World Karate Championships.  Karate gave me the determination and discipline needed to go as far as I have in Photography.”

Today, I am very excited to feature the work of Kristian Dowling, whose photographic exploits involve the biggest names in entertainment, fashion, and sports.   He is the consummate professional, known for his ability to “deliver”, under all manner of circumstances.  Continually sought after for his ability to create memorable and inspirational images, he is rightfully admired by his clients and colleagues alike.

Recently, Kristian decided to eschew the fast-lane life of Los Angeles, where he was working as a celebrity photographer, and headed back to his roots in Melbourne, Australia.

Now, when not on assignment, Kristian is busy teaching fellow photo enthusiasts about “Seeing the Light”, via his photographic workshops, personalised coaching sessions, and contributions in various photographic fora.

As if his formidable photographic talents and unwavering dedication weren’t enough, Kristian is also a genuine, affable, and generous soul.

(Short story…)

When I contacted Mr. Dowling last month and asked him if he wouldn’t mind being a Featured Photographer on Prosophos.com, Kristian — despite his many accomplishments, stature, and busy schedule — responded within 24 hrs, writing:

“I’m happy [to help]…just let me know what you need…”

Q&A with Kristian Dowling.

What motivated (and still motivates) you to pick up a camera?

“The desire to improve and explore.  Exploration using the photographic medium relates not only to exploring the world, but testing myself to see how well I can translate what I see into photographic imagery.  Photography has always been many things to me.  Love, passion, hobby, stress relief and freedom – but mostly a competition within myself to get better and better.  Thankfully, there are no limits with photography, so my journey will continue until the day I leave this Earth.  These days I’m focused on helping others, and passing on the knowledge I’ve collected over the years.  I coach individuals and groups through my photographic training and really enjoy seeing my students improve and achieve their goals.  It means a lot to me to see the development of others through my coaching, and I’m finding that I am just as excited seeing my students progress, as seeing myself improve.  It’s been a big career change for me since leaving my career behind in Hollywood, but it’s a lot of fun and certainly more rewarding.”

 

–

What do your images “say” about you?

“There are probably many things photographers hope their images say about them.  To me, the most important thing I want to convey through my images is ‘dedication’.  By this I mean dedication to my subjects, my effort, my planning, my results, and my own self-improvement.  Most photographers focus on one main area and style with their photography, but with me, I enjoy so much about photography that it’s not a priority for me to have a style to be distinguished by.  I’m not saying it’s not important to have my work be uniquely different, but with so many photographers out their doing great new things, I don’t feel the need to focus on one style just to be different.  I do what I like and try my best to do it at the highest, most consistent level.  There’s also a sense of achievement when you’re confident enough to be able to shoot a variety of different styles, assignments and subjects, and that’s what I thrive on.  I also strive to get my pictures 100% right out of camera, which is certainly a high goal but one I must set in order to keep improving.  It’s very important to me to get my images right out of camera, the traditional way, like I did when I shot film.  I don’t believe in shooting with post processing as a fall back option when I can do most of it at the time of exposure.  It’s much more rewarding taking a picture successfully, without the need to post-processing corrections…. not to mention, time saving 😉 “

 

–

How have you evolved as a photographer/artist over the years?

“Over the years I have evolved as a photographer at a rapid pace.  The 1st stage of my evolution started with photography books, and being inspired by amazing photographers like Steve McCurry, Alex Webb, Sebastião Salgado, Jesse Marlow, Richard Avedon, Jeanloup Sieff and many others.  The 2nd stage began with my first major employment with Getty Images only 9 months after starting photography as a profession.  In this industry, this kind of start is unheard of.  I was fortunate that Getty saw potential in me and took a gamble by making me a staff photographer working at the highest editorial level.  It was an honor but a huge challenge.  I was already quite a technically sound photographer, but a lot of weight goes into experience – which I was lacking.  Very quickly I was working alongside some of the world’s top editorial photographers as the world’s largest events, including the Commonwealth Games, New York Fashion Week, Cannes Film Festival, Beijing Olympics and many more.  Not only was I working there, but often as the official photographers with a great deal of pressure placed upon my shoulders, and the shoulders of our team.  At the time I was fortunate that the amazing photographers I was working with were happy to help me, and train me in a team environment focused on achieving the absolute best results possible.  It was this interaction with other photographers that has influenced me the most.  The 3rd stage of my evolution is where I am right now – exploration of myself with the freedom of not being tied down by employment and clients.  It kind of feels like starting photography all over again, but I’m excited by the possibilities and welcome the challenges ahead.”

–

Any further comments about your work you’d like to share?

“My advice to aspiring photographers all focused on image quality is to not forget to enjoy the experience and not get all caught up in the trap of analyzing their images at pixel level sharpness.  I used to be online all the time focusing on what sensors and lenses will provide maximum picture quality, forgetting that it’s not the camera taking the picture, it’s me.  Cameras (modern ones) are designed to provide great ‘image’ quality, but the ‘picture’ quality comes down to the photographer – and IMHO, the photography experience is most important.  The images come second….”

Almost a year ago, Luiz Paulo did me the honour of gracing Prosophos.com with his images, thereby providing this site’s first Guest Post.

Luiz‘s Muse is quite obviously his beautiful young daughter, who appears in almost every one of his photographs.   What struck me then, and continues to resonate with me now, is the Alice in Wonderland-like quality found in his work:  each image is seemingly fashioned with a whimsical dusting of make-believe and a real sense of expectation.  Overall, there is a surreal quality to each meticulously crafted frame that leaves the viewer feeling not only as if he/she is viewing a series of stunning photographs, but is also turning the pages of some wondrous and magical story-book.

So sit back, relax, and be prepared to be taken to an enchanted world… a world inhabited by one lovely little girl — and an extremely gifted photographer/story-teller.

Q&A with Luiz Paulo.

What motivated (and still motivates) you to pick up a camera?

“To tell stories — letting the opportunities drive my frames.”

–

What do your images “say” about you?

“It’s hard to describe it for your own images. The picture has to tell you what happened and let you imagine forward. But I think my work presented here is very personal and reveals what is important to me and how I feel about it.”

–

How have you evolved as a photographer/artist over the years?

“For my personal work I try to find the appeal of the simplest things surrounding me, the pure, the genuine — the Life’s Little Moments, if I may use this lovely expression… :)”

Any further comments about your work you’d like to share?

“I’m very grateful for this opportunity. Sharing is intrinsic to all us; a way not only to show possibilities but also an exercise to learn through opinions. I do know I have to learn. I’m still doing it and hope I always will.”

Ming Thein is the prodigious photographer, writer, and editor behind the incredibly popular photo enthusiast site Ming Thein | Photographer.

A graduate of Oxford at the age of 16, Mr. Thein studied to be a physicist before embarking on a corporate career in M&A/private equity.  In early 2012, he decided to follow his heart and fully commit to photography, which — up until then — was a part-time vocation but full-time passion, and walked away from his position as a senior executive.

Ming’s work, reflecting the breadth and scope of his interests and talents, focuses on the specialty areas of watch, food, reportage, and architecture/interior photography.  In short order, he has achieved the ever-elusive photographic goal of establishing a signature look and a consistency of output despite employing a variable array of camera platforms.  Referring to himself as a “brand agnostic“, he uses the equipment he deems best suited to each particular assignment.  In following his vision, he has established an international (and impressively broad client) base.

A visit to Ming’s website will confirm that this success has not come by way of accident because — in addition to Ming’s honed photographic output — a treasure trove of noteworthy and comprehensive reviews, essays, and opportunities for learning may be found.

Finally, Ming’s recent article on the new Leica M* at long last gave Leica fans what they were desperately seeking, but had not yet seen:  impressive sample images.

Please join me, then, in welcoming the prolific and seemingly inexhaustible Mr. Ming Thein.

Thank you,

—Peter.

Q&A with Ming Thein.

What motivated (and still motivates) you to pick up a camera?

“Part of it is the process, part of it is the output, and part of it is the way it forces you to see and be more aware of the world around you.  You start being a true photographer by observing; then you try to shoot it; then you realise how much you have to learn to translate your vision into an image – more importantly, to make sure what your audience sees is also what you see.  As your skill improves, your vision gets more complex, and it’s a never-ending cycle: there’s always more to be said in an image, and better ways of saying it. I also feel a pathological compulsion to document the world around me, but I think that’s a more recent consequence of being able to do so and having done it for the last ten years rather than the initial driving cause.”

–

What do your images “say” about you?

“I don’t think it’s possible for the creator to answer this objectively.  You should ask what do you want them to say about you instead – ultimately, the viewers are the judge of whether you succeeded or not.  I’d like to be known for finding beauty in the mundane; for capturing the missed slices of life; for being able to create light to showcase an object or thing in the best possible way.  And my compositions should look perfectly balanced, and the execution technically perfect.  It almost never is, which means there’s always some room for improvement.”

–

How have you evolved as a photographer/artist over the years?

“I’m a lot more focused now, and also a lot more commercially-minded – you have to be to survive as a business.  I used to shoot everything and anything; partially for experience/ the challenge, partially because it was all so new and I hadn’t had the chance to really specialise.  These days, I shoot watches, architecture, food, and for my own work – street/ travel.  That’s it.  I went through both stylistic and subject phases in the past where I’d shift from one genre to another – street, wildlife, travel, landscapes, portraits, fashion, catwalk…but I’d get bored of them and come back to the core three.  However, having tried and being reasonably competent at many types of subject matter means that you can apply things you learn across the board, to give you that creative edge.  I’ve also spent more time understanding my subject before I shoot it – not only does this yield better images because you know exactly what it is the creator intended, but it’s also easier to deal with clients – you speak the same lingo.”

–

Any further comments about your work you’d like to share?

“I think every really serious photographer has to spend some time and effort in finding and developing their own style; you can only go so far by copying somebody else.  Learning to copy/replicate well trains your technical skill, but not your artistic skill; it’s only in the last couple of years that I’ve really been able to nail this down personally.  It means that my more recent work all has a signature to it that gives the whole portfolio a good level of consistency – it’s to do with the use of light, the color palette, the tonal feel, technical execution and overall compositional balance of the image.  I don’t expect to make any major changes to my style or the way I shoot, but I do look forward to the evolution.  That said, it’s taken me over half a million shots to get here…”

About.

36 yrs old.  Lives in Seattle, WA, USA.  Occupation: Physician.

“I began my photographic journey 7 years ago. At the time, I was completing my post-graduate training and was seeking a creative outlet. Prior to photography, I was an avid oil painter, enjoying the surrealist aesthetic. In particular, I found inspiration in the work of Rene Magritte, Mark Tansey, Salvador Dali, Marcel Duchamp, Chuck Close, and Joan Miro. As time became scarce and work became more intense, I began to seek a more rapid, yet satisfying outlet for my creative instincts.  I quickly found my way to rangefinders, where I could have incredible control over the photographic process in a way that other cameras couldn’t offer me.  I enjoy seeing the world as a series of photos waiting to be composed, captured, and edited to bring about the emotion of the moment. It’s my goal to create an emotional impact, that melds properties of the photo with the viewer’s own experiences and view of the world.”

–

Cameras.

Currently:  Leica M9P, Leica M Monochrom, Pentax 645D, Sony RX1.

–

What’s important.

“Caring for others in my career and private life.  Finding inspiration and providing creative solutions to difficult challenges.  Challenging myself in all aspects of life and constantly striving to better myself.”

–

Interesting fact(s).

“I’m a big goofball and enjoy life with laughter and joy whenever possible. Life’s serious enough as is…I am working on getting my photos to incorporate humor, but it’s not yet come to me creatively. Thus, I try to find and represent genuine moments in my current evolution, but humor, I hope, will be a bigger part of my future as a photographer.  Many people suggest that I should give up my career for photography. Truth of the matter is that I love my career just as much as I love making and sharing photos. Both have creative aspects and great meaning to me. One venture would not be possible without the other.”

Today, it is my absolute privilege to present the inspired work of Ashwin Rao.

I’ve known Ashwin for a number of years now, and have always admired his images, which — in a very real sense — are imbued with his character.  Whether it’s his travel photography, portraits of family and friends, street images, or landscapes, there is a quality to his work that surpasses technical prowess and speaks of an inherent and genuine sensitivity.

Ashwin has also been very generous to the photographic community, sharing his experiences and knowledge through many well-written articles, and through various discussions/seminars in multiple photographic fora.  Many of you reading this, therefore, will no doubt be familiar with his name.

As Ashwin’s personal perspective and priorities have changed, he finds that he is increasingly seeking out the “little big moments” around him.   This is of course being reflected in his current work.

Please then, sit back, read the Q&A session that follows, and enjoy the wonderful images of Ashwin Rao.

Thank you,

—Peter.

Q&A with Ashwin Rao.

–

What motivated (and still motivates) you to pick up a camera?

“Well, great question.  For me, it’s about finding balance in life, and photography helps support and enrich the creative side of my personality and passion that work doesn’t always engage.  I have long had a creative streak that has counterbalanced my analytical and structured approach to work and goal-setting/accomplishment.  It’s important for me to engage this part of my personality regularly, and photography satisfies this need.  For me, creating meaningful images not only allows me a certain creative freedom, but allows me to capture and regularly share meaningful moments with my friends and family.  Thus, for me, not only is photography incredible in allowing me to sate my creative impulse, but allows me to share that creative impulse with others through image capture.  It also allows me to engage, capture, and freeze moments of emotion in ways that preserve memories for me.  Ultimately, I find beauty in everyday life, and see the world as a series of moments filled with creative inspiration, filled with promise, and just waiting to be captured.   All of these things motivate me to pick up and use my cameras.”

–

What do your images “say” about you?

“I believe that my images reflect my emotions and my caring for those who live around me and share my creative process with me.  I find that photographs also capture life’s journey, and that preserving these moments is both relevant and important to me.  Beyond that, I believe that my images serve as a reflection of how I see the world, my friends, and my family, and that these images enhance the value of my relationships with others.

I also suspect that I bring my own personality into my images, so I guess that my images say whatever the viewer happens to see and feel, which then in turn, may tell them a bit about me in ways that I don’t even yet know….”

–

How have you evolved as a photographer/artist over the years?

“I think that my images have drifted towards more personal moments. I photograph people as a part of my work, as I enjoy capturing people in the greater element of their lives. In the past, I was more fearful of approaching and photographing people, but with time, I have grown comfortable with a level of engagement that allows me to free up my creative process.  In general, my photos have become more subtle, less bold, maybe less “iconic” in approach, focusing more on ‘little big moments’ rather than larger ‘thematic capture’.”

–

Any further comments about your work you’d like to share?

“For me, becoming a photographer is an ongoing process. I am really only at the start of my journey as an aspiring photographer.  I learn much about this passion each and every day, both through sharing images on the forums, in gallery exhibits, and through conversions and email exchanges with others around the world.  I love that the Leica community is so passionate and small.  It’s a great community with whom to share… There’s a familiarity to the community, where we have shared passions, and not only can we geek out together, but we can grow together too, as photographers, friends, and colleagues in image capture….”

Jason Howe

__________________________________________

About.

43 yrs old.  Lives in Tauranga, Bay of Plenty, New Zealand.  The former MD of a business specialising in retail construction projects he made a lifestyle choice some 5 years ago to leave the UK and seek out a quieter more peaceful existence in “Middle Earth!“.

Cameras and lenses.

He’s “embarrassed to say” that there are too many to list, but his most used are:  Cameras — Leica M9, Leica MM, Leica M6, Leica M3 & Contax 645.; Lenses — Konica Hexanon 60/1.2 Leica 50/1.4 Asph, 35/1.4 Asph, 90/2 Voigtlander 15/4.5

What’s important.

“Family of course, that was very influential in the decision to leave the UK and make a new life in New Zealand.  I’ve learnt some very valuable life lessons in the last decade, I walked away from a lot but at the same time my life became richer in many ways.  Making time for each other and for yourself.  Enjoying nature and the outdoors.   Although it always interested me I came late to photography, it’s filled a void, one that in all honesty I did not know existed.”

Interesting fact.

“I actually have a mild form of colour blindness and I’m constantly describing colours incorrectly.  I’ve often wondered if this has subconsciously effected my photographic decision making and the strong leaning I have towards B&W imagery.  I’ve recently been challenging myself to shoot more colour so we’ll have to see how that goes!”

Today, it is my sincere pleasure to present the work of Mr. Jason Howe.

Not too long ago, Jason made the transition from shooting DSLRs to embracing rangefinders.  Along the way, he tapped into his photographic potential, and also the beauty of New Zealand (the landscape and its people) and has — in very short order — progressed quickly and substantially as an artist.

Mr. Howe has accumulated a plethora of wonderful vintage lenses and modern optical masterpieces.  Since he is passionate about exploring and learning, he has been able to adeptly harness and showcase the unique fingerprint of each optic, as it interacts with various digital and film media.  This drive to learn, combined with Jason’s natural photographic instincts, has resulted in some truly stunning work.

Lately, Jason has committed himself to exploring the realm of film photography in earnest.  To that end, he has stockpiled various films and has bravely ventured on long trips without digital cameras.

All of the above, and more, has been documented on Jason’s very polished aperturepriority photography website, where he not only shares his work, but generously passes on his knowledge to other photography enthusiasts.

Since I know Jason is a natural communicator, I have decided to deviate a little from the usual format and present a little Q&A session before presenting his work.

Thank you,

—Peter.

Q&A with Jason Howe.

What motivated (and still motivates) you to pick up a camera?

“I always believed I could see good images even when I was lacking the technical ability to capture them.  I’m a perfectionist by nature and if I start something I have to see it through with 100% commitment.  So, initially I was motivated by a need to learn, improve and capture the vision in my mind.  Now for the most part I’m motivated by love, a love of photography and the thought of the images I’m yet to make.  I should add that there is and always will be a motivation to learn and continue to improve, such is the nature of photography.”

 –

I believe our images are products of who we are.  What do your images “say” about you?

“I agree, although I’m not sure we ever fully understand who we are….. At times I’ve made a conscious effort not to think too deeply about my style of photography.  Allowing myself to be influenced almost subconsciously.  When I look at my images I see honesty which I hope comes across but mostly I see endeavor.  In simple terms that’s what I think they say about me, honest and hard working.”

 –

How have you evolved as a photographer/artist over the years?

“I find myself in a perpetual photographic evolution but I think that’s quite normal.  I’ve certainly never considered myself an artist although it is true to an extent, I’d describe my mind as more practical than artistic.  I guess the move to rangefinders was a significant turning point for me because for the first time I felt a connection to my camera.  Initially I had a DSLR which I saw purely as a tool, subsequently the Fuji X100 which took me closer to something that felt right.  Then as an experiment I bought a Yashica Electro 35 GSN, I knew immediately that rangefinder photography was my destination.  The move to Leica was then almost inevitable although I enjoy shooting all my rangefinders equally.  Finding the camera, that gives you that feeling of being connected is priceless, whatever make, model or system it turns out to be, I can’t stress that enough.”

 –

Any further comments about your work you’d like to share?

“I’ll just carry on doing what I love, introducing new aspects to my photography as and when they pique my interest.  Mostly I want to continue to improve, after all there is a lot of catching up to do.”
