Cameratico is a new “humanized camera recommendation engine” that’s being developed by Brasília, Brazil-based photographer and programmer Fábio Pili. Sick of camera comparison websites that only dealt with specifications, Pili decided to create one that takes into account real world usage experiences.

Want a perfect example of the Streisand effect in action? Look no further than what happened this week involving Beyonce’s publicist, some unflattering Super Bowl performance photos, and a single email requesting that photos be taken offline.

After Beyonce’s well-received Super Bowl halftime performance, BuzzFeed published an article featuring photographs showing […]

Here’s a series of clever pictures by Stockholm-based photographer Christian Åslund, who turned the ground of various city locations into a backdrop by having his models lie on their sides. By taking advantage of patterns, structures, and objects, the subjects look as though they’re strolling on platforms, hanging from ledges, […]

Photographer David S. Allee’s process for creating a new series is a roundabout, albeit focused process.
His latest work, “Frame of View” currently on display at the Morgan Lehman Gallery in New York City until Feb. 16, is a perfect example of his routine.
“I usually have one project I’m focusing on […]

It was snowing. Lightly. The roads were not yet covered. Entirely. There was a slight sheen on the asphalt, blanketing the black ice like a grandmother’s knitted afghan. (Big ups, Grandma Ruth, wherever you are.)
I was driving East towards the mountains. My skis were in the back, my […]

I am looking forward to being surprised by imaginative photography that is original, curious, and thoughtful. I am not concerned at all about what equipment has been used, I am not sure it’s really very relevant. I would love to see a representation of the world that isn’t reductive, that […]

Probably not. But how long should you expect it to last?

That totally depends on how you are using it. Read more » […]

We’ve shared photographs of neatly arranged camera gear before, but they’ve generally been cameras disassembled into its individual components. Photographer Jim Golden took the whole “neatly arranged” concept to a whole new level recently: he shot the photograph above after arranging more than 190 cameras, lenses, and accessories in his […]

The Jackson Women’s Health Organization is currently the only place in the state of Mississippi where women can get safe and legal abortions.
Last spring, the Mississippi legislature passed a bill requiring all doctors performing pregnancy terminations to have hospital admitting privileges—a measure that reproductive health advocates denounce as an arbitrary […]

Still Images In Great Advertising, is a column where Suzanne Sease discovers great advertising images and then speaks with the photographers about it.
I stumbled across Erik Madigan Heck’s work while looking for great work for this column and I am thrilled I did. When I read Erik’s bio, I was […]

Conspiracy theories dominate big moments in history: the Holocaust, the shooting of JFK, Sept. 11, Elvis’ “death,” and, of course, the moon landing. Photographer Thomas Herbrich, who specializes in creating artifice, has made his own moon-landing-conspiracy theory in the form of a series called “The Truth About the Moon Landing.”
For […]

French photographer Laurent Chehere is clearly a dreamer.
His series “Flying Houses,” which he began in 2007, is a fantastical exploration of the diverse and inspirational architecture of Paris, albeit not exactly the structures for which the city is known.
Chehere was born (and currently resides) in Ménilmontant, a district of Paris […]

In “Love and a Question” by Robert Frost, the poet writes “Let us look at the sky, And question what of the night to be, Stranger, you and I.” There may or may not be answers there for us or for Frost’s bridegroom, but the simple pleasure of gazing […]

Picking up where we left off last week in our impromptu living room studio, let’s swap the lighting around to make a different style of photo which is designed to fulfill a different purpose.

The first photo was more in-house—think PR. It’s the kind of photo you would get if the […]

In the United States in 1960, the average life expectancy (average for all races and sexes) was 69.7 years. In 2010, that number had increased to 78.7 years. How prescient it was for entrepreneur Del Webb, in 1959, to build Sun City, Arizona – the first active retirement […]

Still riffing on Monday’s post about studio-vs.-location, here’s another reason I am not a big fan of studios. You can replicate them pretty much anywhere, and for almost nothing.

So let’s switch things up and start with the BTS pic this time, to show you the “studio” used to photograph consultant […]

An unnamed student at the Digital Photography program at Ravensbourne (UK) asks, via Twitter:

“Our photography degree course has no studio! (Will you) help us tell the management we need one?

No, anonymous student at Ravensbourne, I will not. Firstly, I think your petition signatures should be from students in the program. […]
