Photographer No.2- Mike Campau

 I have picked Mike Campau as one of my chosen photographers because of the way he edits his photographs to add patterns which shape around the models body. I also liked the way in which all of his photographer contain the same tome of colour even including the costume and the back drop.

The composition of Mike Campau first photograph is the model placed in the centre who had jumped in the air and has been captured in the middle of the motion. Large ribbon looking shapes have been edited on to the photograph which shape around the models body. This gives the photograph a sense of weightlessness and elegance. Lastly a purple tone is kept throughout the photograph which gives a warming to the photograph.


The composition of Mike Campau second photograph is again that the model is placed in the centre who has jumped in the air and has created a sharp shape with her arms and legs.Again the same editing technique is used in this photograph as the first. A range of greens have been used throughout the photograph which gives it a feel of nature.








The composition of Mike Campau third photograph is that a women looks to have jumped elegantly into the air which is creating a sophisticated motion which has been frozen in its essence. The same editing technique is used in this photograph as the others however this one appear to be much looser therefore adding to the sense of weightlessness within this photograph. 






The composition of Mike Campau forth photograph is a women jumping in the air and a spiral shape has been shaped around her body during this motion. The spiral almost looks like a spring and could represent her jumping off the group like a spring would. A blue and green tone can be seen throughout the photograph such as with the costume, background and the editing.





Influence
I have been influenced by Mike Campau as i would now like to consider not only photographing object and that it would be fun and interesting to photograph the freezing motion of humans.I also would like to experiment with different  colour tones to see which benefits the photograph the most.

Summary
Overall i like Mike Campau photographs as i feel that the colour tones used in each photograph help portray the elegance or sharpness of the motion as well as the editing technique which shapes around the models body.
