I find his work very clever.
He often brings totally different context to an object, and I admire his creativity.
And he has been a good source of inspiration for my work.

Trial and Error


I have already failed my first attempt of creating an interesting image using this headphone.
This is my second try, and it still is not good enough to be in my portfolio. I am going to give it another try before I give up, and move on to something else.

My inspiration: Paul Outerbridge



Paul Outerbridge is my favorite photographer, and I often get inspirations from his work.
I fell in love with his work when I saw his images at Getty museum couple years ago, and I was amazed by his sense of design and composition.
The thing I love the most about his work is the fact that he turned his commercial vision into an art form.

Incorporating Water Splash into my work.


For my product portfolio, I was looking for a interesting way to photograph an electric shaver. I first shot the shaver by itself on a black background, but I wasn't too happy with it, because I felt that the image lacked impact, so I decide to incorporate a splash into my image. After pretty much flooding the photo stage with water, this was the best splash I got. I am not too happy with it, because I feel that splash is competing with the shaver. I am going to give it another shot next week, and hopefully all this hard work will payoff.
