Image Bank - Hair Project

Image Bank - Hair Project

Cristina Piza
Cristina Piza has had several exhibitions. Her first exhibition was in 1993 in Munich. Ever since she has had several galleries all over in places like Munich, Paris, London, Rome Berlin and other places. She has also earned quite a few awards. In total she has gotten 8 awards. She has gotten awards from places like New York, London, Munich, Madrid, and other places. She received her first award in 1994 at Olympus Fashion Award and her latest award was received in 2004 for the Freelens Layout Price.

Cristina Piza did a portfolio called "Havanna Dreams" and some of the pictures are of a girl getting married. I especially like this picture because I think it is a bit original and I like how it is simple and yet a very nice picture. I also chose this picture because I think it related to our project, Hair. The hair in this picture is pretty in focus and also the lighting is very good.
Anthony Redpath
Anthony Redpath's great passion for photography has helped him get great jobs with big advertising agencies. He has worked for big companies like BMW, Ford, Toyota, Microsoft and Helett-packard. His photographs have been showcased and been awarded several times and by numerous international publications. He has received several awards throughout the years 2003 - 2007.
I like this picture by Anthony Redpath. It's a funny picture which makes you relax a bit. The hair is also very focused as it is a bit odd and 'out there'.

Stewart Cohen
Stewart Cohen is mainly known for his pictures of different lifestyles. Stewart Cohen is extremely good at cathing the different ways of licing of people and theyre different hobbies. He has also done some advertising photos for like Samsung and some other companies. Stewart Cohen isn't only a photography, but also makes short motion clips. Unfortunately I was not able to find a good biography about Stewart Cohen, but looking through his portfolios show that he is an extremely skilled photography and looking at his pictures is very fun.
I think this close up picture by Stewart Cohen is really good. The hair is clearly visible and the effect of the blue-ish light gives the picture a colder feeling. I chose this picture because I like and it because it is a nice close-up shot.
