Had a very equine childhood and became very experimental, studied art at school in 1971, ‘My work originally came from the snapshot aesthetic…. Snapshots are taken out of love and to remember people, places, and shared times. They’re about creating a history by recording a history.’
Her photography of very risky, and a bit out of the ordinary, including images of her friends in their homes, reflections in their mirrors, on their beds, very catered to the person’s ideas and style. The ‘getting to know yourself’ period in life.

Words describing his work- personal, people, light, setting, colour, movement, time, placement, position, clothing, alternative, paint is thoughtfully placed over images, creates objects, sequences, black and white, contrast, sharp lines, shadow, editing- two images side by side-inserts of other images/morphing, blur, pixeled due to film camera, mirror, fashion, music, art,
Justin Tyler Close is a photographer originally from Canada and now lives in America, LA.
As a child, he loved to create visual diaries through drawings and images, cut and taped to the page.
He says his inspiration is music, art and has elements of fashion.
He uses film cameras (Nikon F3-35mm) and disposables and polaroid, he says that he uses these because he believes that they can actually take a quality image, his reason behind using disposables is because he thinks that the simplicity of taking the image is much better than the new digital cameras, he is more focused on the ‘conversations’ of the photography and not the camera used by the photographer. He says in an interview: ‘I'm more intrigued with real life and capturing those moments others miss. Disposables allow me to be ready for anything, from being underwater to being inside an airplane!’
Justin has many different collections that all focus on their own theme, e.g. Sunlight, use of bubble wrap, portraits, beds, landscapes, journal etc. His collections feel very personal and directed to the model in the images. He works
In his collection ‘Sunlight’ he uses light and shadow within his images and builds the atmosphere by using these conventions. The soft shadows in some of his images are mainly paired with figure and structure e.g. Windows.
He has used blocks of light, that contrasts with the dark surroundings.
The work he produces is fluent and structured, the work he includes in his collections are varied and creatively constructed and distilled, meaning the important aspects are brought out.

Martin Parr's influences
‘In the 1970s when Parr started, photographers who wanted to be taken seriously and have their work displayed in museums needed to work in black and white, he told TIME magazine. At that time, ‘colour was the palette of commercial photography and snapshot photography.’
In the tradition of Tony Ray-Jones, Parr turned his eye to the story of life in Britain, taking striking shots of traditional country life in decline as factories closed and a newer, younger crowd introduced alternative lifestyles. Kristian Martin, Curator of The Great British Seaside, describes Parr as ‘the natural successor’ to Ray-Jones who pioneered non-commercial art photography in the UK. Twenty of his iconic seaside shots from the 1960s are on display in the new exhibition.
In the 1980s Parr was inspired by American colour photographers William Eggleston and Stephen Shore, and discarded monochrome for the popping colour photography he is now known for. His serious foray into colour continued his documentation of British life in a new way and his use of flash outdoors captured his subjects in action with crystalline precision.
John Hinde’s brightly saturated postcards of bustling Butlins camps in the 60s and 70s also caught Parr’s eye. Hinde’s influence can also be seen in the tension between the idealistic and the grimy in Parr’s photography - particularly in the seaside settings. The happy colours juxtapose the awkward elements of the scene.’

Memphisc. 1969
‘The tricycle may be a little worse for wear, but it is pictured here as the most important thing in the world. To make the photograph, Eggleston adopted a viewpoint even lower than the eye-level of the tricycle's owner, so as to give us a clear view between its wheels to the grown-up sedan parked in the carport across the street.’
