Denis Rouvre Rocks... He Just Does...


This morning on a forum a I followed a link and found Denis Rouvre's incredible images. I had been vaguely aware of him from reading about his "automation" shoots where he lets people photograph themselves. I hadn't seen that much of his work.

I have visited the site three times in the last 2 hours. I just love looking at his pictures. Simplicity and classic light, with amazing composition and style. His use of normal and slightly wide lenses give the shots an immediacy and "in your face" POV that just pulls you into the frame.

You have to see his work... what an inspiration to those of us who do portraiture.

I also followed the same link Don and I think I might have spent about an hour straight. Analyzing each image. He definitely has a unique and wonderful style and I agree on the lighting. Exquisite!
