Norman Parkinson and the rear flash.
Norman Parkison is a photographic god; a fashion legend. His knowledge and interpretation of light is something I personally admire greatly, and it is because of this, that I have chosen to look further into his style of photographing. This photograph in particular was perhaps one of the first fashion photographs I had ever seen that used a rear flash to evoke a unique and realistic sense of movement and life.
What I admire most about Parkinson is his ability to show his subjects true form and character. He is portraying them for who they truly are rather than having them blankly stare into the camera...
My main aim throughout this project as a whole is to do the exact same but with my own twisted style/approach.
