Todd Hido

(none of my photos) 

I am emulating Todd Hido for this project because of his neat night photos of streets. After doing a bit of research, I found out that he also takes pictures of homes and apartments at night, when the lights are on in the windows. He also occasionally takes portraits and shots of interior spaces. All of his photos have dramatic lighting and simple, yet vibrant, color palettes. Most pictures have some fuzzy aspect to them, such as fog or diffused shadows, so more attention is focused on a particular element. In his house photos, it is usually the lit windows. 

I am going to be focusing on emulating the dramatic lighting and limited color palette aspects of his work. I am going to take shots of places at night and perhaps even some portraits. I hope to get better at using limited color schemes by the end of this.
