My good friend Philip Porcella ... Philip Porcella Photographer

I like what I have seen of Joe McNally. But I have been looking at a lot of Scott Kelby's photos and video's lately. Also, I like the work I have seen from Bambie Cantrell too.

Most of the people I like presently have been because of the video's from creativelive.com.

Walker Evans for his eye on Americana.

Ansel Adams for his technical mastery and stunning landscapes.

David LaChappele for his creativity and massive investment in sets, props and wardrobe for that "one shot".

Diane Arbus for dragging stuff that's kept safely outside back into the room... and making it unavoidable.

Phiippe Halsman - for bringing a Daliesque style to photography (at a time when the technical aspects of those shots was still a daunting challenge all it's own)

Geddes and Wegman for showing its possible to (keep caring enough to) keep selling the cliche with increasing technical mastery and commitment... without going all Van Gogh on yourself.
