Represent is Loving: Bill Sullivan’s pics
Just wanted to share this awesome photographer with you all, Bill Sullivan is based in New York and takes photo’s of ordinary people doing fairly ordinary NY things like coming through the metro/underground ticket turnstiles, exiting from a lift etc…. He seems to catch them at the exact same moment, his work somehow catching humans at their most real and untouched… just getting through the day. What’s amazing is how similar vacant tired expressions can look. Enjoy.
Daily Ink /Utata fills us in:
“He calls it “situational photography” and describes it as “as a combination of street photography and portrait photography.” In essence, it involves the photographer visibly loitering in a specific, clearly identifiable location, taking candid surreptitious photographs of ordinary people engaged in an ordinary situation. New York photographer Bill Sullivan has compared his photographic approach to wildlife photography. He establishes a likely location, waits until the subject arrives, takes the photograph. Instead of deer or rare bird species or crocodiles, Sullivan photographs people in their natural environment.”
