What It’s All About

After a few conversations with my friend Jon Long (who’s original idea this is), I’ve decided to take on a project wherein I choose a photographer to study/analyze, with the end result in viewing getting to know 52 photographers in a year. Don’t let that last statement and the name of this site make you think I’ll only do this for a year; I plan on maintaining this blog as long as I have the energy to do so.

I’ll be publishing a post every Sunday with my review. I hope this blog can become a resource for friends, strangers, students, and anyone else interested in photography and seeing new photographers. I don’t intend this to be very comprehensive, but I hope it can be a point of departure for those needing to research other photographers, or are just wanting to expand their “vocabulary.”

A bit of a caveat: I am a landscape photographer, so most of the photographers I review will likely be landscape photographers as well, but don’t be scared away if you’re bored with landscape photography. The whole reason for this is to look at photographers from all styles: landscape, documentary, portrait, conceptual, installation…anything and anyone I find interesting.
