Portraits Part 2 - Relative Artist (Chad Moore)

After looking for artists that have similar work to what I want to achieve, I came across a photographer called Chad Moore. 30 year old Chad produced a series of photos called 'June' which was all about capturing the life of the youth of today. I absolutely adore some of the photos in this series, I love how they capture so many emotions and make me really feel warm and content when I see them. When asked about what draws him to portraiture, Moore said "People are just so fascinating to me. The most exciting thing to me is photographing someone. I feel like you can really look deep into someone when taking his or her picture. For me it’s so personal. As far as my generation goes, It’s kind of like I said earlier; it’s interesting for to think about people looking back in 20 years, or even 10 years, and seeing what it was like in NYC, or Paris, or wherever I’m taking these pictures." Another reason why I enjoy these photos so much is because I feel like they are very reminiscent and nostalgic to the older generations who feel like their teenaged years are over and seeing these photos are a beautiful way for them to look back on their youth.
