Digital Montage Photographers

David Brandon Geeting

David Brandon Geeting is a well established photographer in many different fields. The three images above are just a tiny insight into his huge selection of work on his website and tumblr. I enjoyed looking through his tumblr the most and have become really fond of his work because of how different his work is, nothing like I have seen before. A lot of his work includes different objects and background that appear to have been created on photoshop or any other retouching softwares. I particularly like the second image I have included. The objects look to have been placed there that are from different images, showing how it is digital montage photography. He seems to specialise in this area photography but includes it in his fashion and editorial work. Digital montage really compliments his work because of the bold colours he uses that makes the object he is focused on photographing really stand out.

Mari Mahr

Mari Mahr's work is quite a contrast to the other two photographers I have presented here. All of her photography shown on her portfolio on her website is black and white, rather than the other photographers I have researched, where it seems to be bright and colourful. Her digital montage work seems to be one large photograph in the background then other photographs on top of that and then maybe even more physical objects over that. I like the way Mahr has created her work through using  a number of layers to create the digital montage effect. It seems that she has not used photoshop to create this, although it would be possible by using that also. Using black and white rather than colour works for her photography, as it appears quite dark and emotional.

Qui Yang

Qui Yang's work has been featured in numerous fashion magazines and websites. He presents his own style throughout all work in his portfolio, that has clearly led to his successful with major companies such as Elle magazine. Much of his work is fashion or editorial photography, but includes digital montage techniques, which is what makes his photography so unique. Bold and colourful seems to be  a recurring theme throughout his work, which always seem to compliment the objects he is photographing, whether it be jewellery or clothing. His work is definitely edited on photoshop, or another software as it is clear to see the different shapes and objects he uses along side the products have been manipulated with.
