Featured Photographer 10-1



For this weeks featured photographer, I had a lot of trouble picking who to feature. I literally searched on Flickr for about an hour before giving up and moving over to Deviantart.com, an online art gallery of sorts. After just a few moments of looking, I already knew who i was going to pick: an artist that I had actually seen around the site without knowing that one person was behind so many beautiful shots! Her Deviantart username is 'zemotion and her personalsite is HERE. Her real name is Jingna and she is originally from Bejing, moving around a bit when she was very young. I found this fact interesting: she used to be a rifle champion at the early age of 14, breaking a national record! Eventually she left her prestigious gun school (hard to explain haha) and took up fashion and photography.

I love her pictures because they capture emotion, regality, and fashion at the same time. My more favorite photos of hers are her fantasy shots rather than her fashion photography, but all of her work is full of innovation, unique subjects, and excellent lighting and composition. She has received awards for her captured beauty and on the site I am a part of that I found her through (deviantart) she had received many 'Daily Deviations', a pretty high honor. I suggest you all visit her site and see what the young artist has to show the world.
