Am I allowed to do this?
I don't know if it's against the rules....i'm not asking for a critique on his work. But i've seen threads about age and photography and blah blah blah. SO.....Proof that age does not matter when it comes to creating art. Maybe in time and experience then technique will come...but HELLO, amazing start and work. https://www.modelmayhem.com/member.php?id=272058 I don't know about you. But I love it. Dec 31 06 01:51 am Link i dont know. But there is a "too old" thing i think. The link that u posted has some really nice pix. I wanna get something in that style too Dec 31 06 01:54 am Link Wow. I'm astonished. Dec 31 06 01:59 am Link Ella_Bebe wrote: Too old, how old is too old??? Dec 31 06 02:01 am Link Cristina Ashley wrote: Why exactly do you like those pics? What is it that you actually like? Just curious... Dec 31 06 02:02 am Link Ella_Bebe wrote: What would make you make a statement like that? How many "old" photographers have you shot with? How "old" do you think the photographers are that shoot for Vogue, Playboy, Life, Time, etc? Dec 31 06 02:06 am Link Iona Lynn wrote: I was not talking about the photographers. There are people of all ages that are talanted. But I dont think that a 70 yearsold female can build a successful career in modeling. Dec 31 06 02:06 am Link Hamza wrote: They're nostalgic. They really just force me to evoke strong feelings (and they're happy feelings too Dec 31 06 02:07 am Link I'm not a photographer, so don't jump on me if I don't use the proper 'terms' when talking or critiquing work....but In the beach pics....I think it has something to do with the coloring of them. They look vintage. And when I look at them I feel like i'm standing on the beach with her looking at her. The close up of the little girl- just wow. He captured everything. Her freckles. Her expression. It looks like I can crawl into her mind. The smoke picture is amazing. I love how you can see every little hair and detail in it. I just think that they are great photos. They might not have crazy lighting and wardrobe or 'technique'. BUt they definatley have something. Dec 31 06 02:07 am Link Cristina Ashley wrote: Character. And emotion.

LOL, now i see what you were talking about lately... Dec 31 06 02:14 am Link Haha, wow - this is pretty cool. I'm flattered. And blushing. But more flattered than blushing. (: Dec 31 06 02:59 am Link I think I have seen him somewhere before. Photo.net or something maybe but I have seen #8 somewhere. I love 7,8,9 the most. Lots of young photographers coming out of the woodwork the last few years. I thank digital for that because if not for digital the cost of film and developing would prohibit a lot of photographic creativity in the younger generations. Matt, you rock dude. And to think you`ll only get better. Dec 31 06 03:03 am Link Primal Lens wrote: i totally agree with all of this!!!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!! If only you were closer Dec 31 06 03:05 am Link The boy has talent and he has 'the eye' (not sure how to explain what that is in subjective terms).

I get more critique that way =P Dec 31 06 03:13 am Link Matt Caplin wrote: Possibly DA. Check out Photo.net and PhotoSig.com!

I have seen thousands of model and photographer portfolios on MM and yours stands up to and exceeds most of them. When your age and 1 year of experience is factored in, I can not even imagine what possibilities are awating you. Its refreshing to see forum posts like this one and its even more refreshing that someone barely old enough to even be allowed on MM is creating such a positive influence on MM by his awesome work. There are photographers with as many years experience as you have lived and they could and should be envious of your work.

And neither were done making fine art. So how old is "to old"? PS I'm 56. Dec 31 06 04:21 am Link One of the many underappreciated profiles on MM. Come on people, Break out of your shells and go searching this site. There is a great amount of work out there that never posts in the forums, never makes the lists of the bests but they are often better, do not use the look at me box(announcement page), or We talk jibberish page(the shout box). They are not comment whore. They present their work and many have real work to do. Dec 31 06 04:25 am Link Daniel Savage wrote: Dump 1-5 and the work is better.

It is about checking out someone's work. Especially if they did not start the thread or it should be in the critique section. Mhana moderator. Dec 31 06 04:29 am Link |
