Recently I have been researching photographers for a project i am currently doing called 'Modern Masters'. In this project I have to recreate a CD cover, therefore researching photographers and their techniques is really important. The image above was produced by a photographer named Peter Coulson. From looking at his work, it is clear that he predominantly deals with more of a twisted horror side of photography.
Although this image is simple, I personally think that this image is really effective by use of contrasting colours and the cut of the hair which adds that extra dark, edgy feel.
There is something unnerving about this image, it makes you question why is this 'angel' binded and put in a dark room? Why is her facial expression distressed? In my opinion that's what makes this photograph simple but effective.
This photograph shows the different angles that Peter Coulson investigates, it also adds another dimension to the image making it seem as though shes coming out of the picture frame.
