“Envision your customer not as a group, but as a person. Who are they? What books do they read? Where do they shop? Who do they follow on Instagram? Who are their influencers? How do they make purchasing decisions? What emotions affect them when they would choose a photographer? Where do they live and how much do they make? When you fill this out it helps you figure out how to reach those people.”

"Be who you are and what you are; for if you think of what others think of you, you will become what others think of you. Rather, be what you want to be".
"The face is our most imprinted image; to discover what extent we can recognise when distorting the human form has always fascinated me and with social media I can see what responses are triggered by those interested in my work and this has always pushed me to continue creating."
"photos are absolutely stunning! I love the way you capture the light and the colors."
"I have always tried to exploit the photograph. I use it like color, or as the poet uses the word." "I wish to blur the firm boundaries which we self-certain people tend to delineate around all we can achieve.""

However, the reality and struggle of women's everyday lives was one that often contradicted the ideals and expectations being placed upon them. Kleine Sonne (Little Sun), 1969. Höch wanted the viewer to be disturbed by notions of gender in society as she presented conflicting ideas of femininity (and masculinity). |

John Rivers Coplans was a British artist, art writer, curator, and museum director. A veteran of World War II and a photographer, he emigrated to the United States in 1960 and had many exhibitions in Europe and North America.
Coplans uses a video camera and monitor to view parts of his body. Once he has selected an area, an assistant takes a photograph using positive/negative Polaroid film. This film creates instant images at the same time as a negative which may be used for later printing in large scale. After serving in World War II, Coplans pursued painting and was largely influenced by Abstract Expressionists like Willem de Kooning and the movement known as Tachisme. He moved to the United States in 1960, settling in San Francisco where he met the other founding members of Artforum. |
