Billy kidd is a self taught photographer who was originally from Florida but now has a studio in New York he has worked for huge companies such as Nike, Vogue, Details magazine and Elle. His portraits include George Bush Jr, Zoe Deschanel, James Franco and Lenny Kravitz. His personal works include images of Samburu Warriors, Trees, Nudes, Decaying leaves and my favourite Decaying flowers. The images of the flowers are dark and sad yet somehow manage to be bright and vivid at the same time .
I love the sharpness of the photograph as it allows all the detail and colours to be seen but then contrasted against the soft shadow that sneaking around the flowers which I think helps gives them a mystical look. I would love to recreate these but in a different form and using a different media wether it's dying fabrics or painting onto fabrics.
