Photographer: Mark Stetler | Title: Pinhole Nudes
Mark Stetler – Pinhole Nudes
Mark Stetler shot his “Pinhole Nudes” similar to the way a painter paints a live figure model. In commentary that will be featured in this year’s Photography Annual 2014, he explains the process below:
My goal was/is to slow down the process of photography and settle the subject. When the sitter must hold a pose for a five to 10 second exposure, frame after frame, you will eventually get to a place where, in my opinion, the subject’s facade drops and you see the person in a more relaxed state.
The series has earned Platinum in our Photography Annual 2014. Stetler is a previous Graphis award winner, who also won a Gold for “Pinhole Photography of Points East” in our Photography Annual 2013. To check out more work by Mark, click here.
