Recent flyer designs

I’m not going to argue that the correct spelling is “flyer” .. because it could very well be “flier.” I remain neutral. However, since I refuse to sit here for all eternity, stuck in neutrality, I shall choose one and move forward.

Lately my photographic eye has taken on a new role in my creative work. Going out to photograph the unknown, but with a specific mission has proven to work quite intuitively for me. Shedding the impulse to use a camera only to capture what is visually stunning and perfectly posed has given way to more practical applications. And while a single shot may contain less striking elements, several in combination can be quite effective. Or while one shot may not be interesting as a singular statement, a portion or two may be used effectively in another context. For me to overcome my perfectionism to such a degree, then find I’m still able to satisfy it further down the road has been a great experience.

Here’s a couple of flyers I designed recently for my current band Takenobu that illustrate these new facets of my photographic life:

I’m really very happy with them and look forward to more opportunities to do this kind of shooting.
