olivia crawford

olivia crawford a photographer who i found on www.booooooom.com (a website i visit everyday and get a LOT of ideas and inspiration from, i'll referring to it a lot) It's a blog about photographer's/painter's/graphc designer's/illustrator's/sculptor's (etc) blogs.. so they aren't professional a lot of the time, mostly amature photographers but it gives you a great insight of contemporary photography and see whats going around today.






The reason i like her work, firstly im a sucker for film/35mm/medium format and all that. I love grainy, vintage looking photographs with a real sense of timelessness taken today. Its such a breath of fresh air when comparing them to high resolution BIG.BRIGHT.BOLD.DIGITAL 21ST CENTURY TECHNOLOGY photography (a wee rant).
The thing that caught my eye most about her work from this blog was the behind the head portraits, ive come across a fair few from booooom and theres just something so strange and mystical about them.
