For me, conceptual photography covers a range of subjects. It’s not just about one subject, it’s about creating stories with lots of different resources. It’s where I feel digital art can be special, personal, unique, and sacred.
This is not basic photo editing, it’s the next step (and then some) using lots of digital resources. Custom shapes, brushes, overlays, and filters are some of my preferred tools to help me achieve some of the designs in this gallery.
My starting point is a normally a portrait. With the right model shot inspires me to create ideas based on their expression and pose. Shooting the original image and then taking on the edit is a fulfilling project from start to finish.
