Oliver Weber Photography | Blog

Wow! ART 344 featured me today on the spring 2010 Blog:

 

"When looking at work from Oliver Weber most people are magically taken into his images. He has a way of capturing physical composition with emotional experience. this form of photo is greatly admired. Weber's work falls into the realm of documentary photography, the art of capturing moments. Ways in which to become successful documentary photographer one must posses certain qaulities that allow for the perfect shot. First, one must be aware of one's surroundings. Next, one must develop an eye for what might classify as a good photo. Finally, timing, and positioning can all play a factor in creating images that grasps viewers attention and tell a specific story. Composition, point of views, and capturing the climax of an event are also great tools used for good documentary work, especially by Weber. His photos focus on people in there natural,everyday environments. he feels it shows the current reality of untold stories. a lot of the reason i find his method interesting are because they resemble my own. Oliver roams and seeks out his subjects as they exist in the world. the images can be sometimes gritty,focus alot on underprivileged communities, but they brings voice to all those whose crises for help that have been drowned out"
