MY COMMENTS
I feel I have a lot in common with Matt as a person and hopefully one day will be as successful as him as a photographer. Like Matt I have been observing and studying human nature and interaction since I was in my early teens. I have always been fascinated by how people interact together and can spend ages watching people in everyday situations. I think sometimes that if you could take a photo of a group of people and showed it to different groups of people they would all come up with a different story of who the people are, what they do for a living, what they are talking about etc. This thought provoking type of photos are what Matt Hoyle produces in that he chooses interesting subjects to photography as well as using post production techniques to make them slightly different from the norm and therefore opens the photos up for discussion.
Matt has done a series of photos of older people - some swimming, some boxing - and has increased the colour saturation and contrast and made their faces really interesting. I not only love his choice of subjects but also the way he uses post production techniques to highlight the interesting characteristics of his models. One of the things he loves as a photographer that now we're in the digital age he has complete control of the whole photography process. I am looking forward to developing my skills in all areas so that I can have complete control over the photography process.
If you click on Matt Hoyle's name in the blog called 'Looking at the Professionals' to see Matt's amazing photography.
