Probably inspired by comics she sees monsters or people where anyone would see… nothing. Her art is very creative and funny.
Finally, Sandrine Estrade Boulet’s work is a mix of drawings and photography… She creates unexpected pictures that definitely stay in memory. Represented by lebookmaker.com

Mark Tucker is an American photographer who is doing an indredible work through a series called “mothers” and where he is using wet plate collodion. This early photographic process was introduced in the 1850s and it requires the photographic material to be coated, sensitized, exposed and developed within the span of about fifteen minutes, necessitating a portable darkroom for use in the field.

Lee Towndrow was a designer and flame artist before being a photographer so he has obviously lots of graphic skills. Originally from Canada he moved in different places, working through different lattitudes and cultures and he is now based in NYC. I would suggest to watch the Paper Portraits where a three dimensional set gives a fresh frame for portrait photography and also the “Anachronism” series where old men and young kids essentially switch places or time with an impressive use of light and composition. On another site section Lee shows his work for video visual effects and imaging, very complete and interesting.
Lee Towndrow works for ad agencies and magazines among the best ones and he received many awards like: National Magazine Awards (Gold in 2012) or GRAPHIS Top 100 in Photography (2010), He is represented by Bransch.
