Mia-Myline Medina_Romina Ressa/JUCO_Week #3



Romina Ressa is photographer based in Buenos Aires. Not only has she been awarded the Photographer of the Year by the International Color Awards in 2017, but her work has been exhibited in most of the fashion capitols of the world- Milan, New York, and Paris to name a few. Her work, "Art History," combines modern aspects with Elizabethan portraiture.  I found the simplicity of the photos beautiful and the contemporary props humorous. I would consider this style to be on the antique side of vintage and I appreciate it just the same. I enjoy both dark, mysterious tones as well as vibrant, colorful aesthetics. This photographer just so happens to work with the dark side of vintage fashion.

JUCO is actually a collaborative pair of photographers, Julia Galdo and Cody Cloud, who first met in at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2002 where they were paired together for a project. Their work consists of vibrant and somewhat quirky editorial pieces, mostly shot in a studio. I appreciate both the simplicity of their work and the attention to detail that is behind the visual design. Above everything, I as a photographer am mostly interested in the many aspects of fashion and set design- colors, textures, shapes and designs. Looking JUCO works just reaffirmed in my mind that this is where I want my photography to go in the direction of.
