how often does the letter "a" occur in:
i've focused on a few other photographers here on the blog, including troy paiva and his amazing night photography, and garry winogrand's legendary street work. this time i'd like to focus on a friend of mine, natalie obermaier, who just happens to be an amazing photographer. what i find interesting about her work as a whole is that she has two completely different styles; if you saw examples of each side by side, you might never guess they were created by the same person. foremost, perhaps, are her subtle but touching black-and-white portraits (the subject of a recent gallery show in san francisco), which artlog describes as "studies of children [which] evoke the modern malaise of growing up too quickly."
first, let's look at her black and white work.
if want to see more, there's plenty to be found at natalie's website.
