Craig Nunn. Leeds-born, Cambridge-based photographer. Also a one-time Bollywood extra, and one third of a pop group called Internet Forever.
When I opened the email and saw that Craig included latest music video from the band he’s in, I smiled. It was a first for LPV. But seemed perfectly in-line with our ethos. Most photographers either have day jobs or other creative outlets. I’ve always been interested in how these type of photographers integrate their work with other activities, be it their day job or musical career. My friends over at insig.ht wrote an great piece on this awhile back called ‘The Insiders,’ which is worth a read if you missed it.
My taste in music is rather vanilla, and we’re not aiming to be Pitchfork over here, so don’t worry, but I enjoyed the video and thought the song was catchy.
(Note: From our recent entries it might appear that we’re favoring the “lo-fi-grainy-washed-out” look recently, but really, it’s not intentional. Just the publishing flow. I’m sure we’ll be featuring some crisp, clear large format landscapes soon enough.)
MATILDE SOLIGNO was born in 1980 in Bologna, Italy. She studied Communication Sciences at the University of Bologna, and she attained a MFA in Stage Photography at the European Institute of Design, Milan.
Maybe it’s this grey Brooklyn morning, but these quiet, moody portraits resonated with me.
Lorena Endara was born and raised in Panama City, Panama. She became interested in photography at the age of twelve and has been practicing ever since. She attended Sarah Lawrence College and earned a B.A. in liberal arts. Lorena’s passion for photography is directly linked to her love for travel and commitment to social justice.
I like it when people email me because it’s typically work off my radar. I haven’t come across much work from Central and South America but that’s probably because I’m not looking hard enough. Lorena’s ‘A man a plan a canal panama’ project looks promising.
Founded in 2007 by Bryan Formhals, La Pura Vida is a photography gallery that features monthly online group shows edited by a mix of guest photographers, as well as daily features on this blog.
