who is this photographer...?

hi all--

i have been looking everywhere for the name of the photographer who stages his pictures and designs elaborate settings for them.

he uses cotton and such for clouds and in one specific picture he is in a crow's nest with a telescope and in another he is on a ladder i believe with constructed wings... (i feel like i'm making this up) they are retro looking pictures (sepia tone maybe?) and VERY unique.

any information would be VERY much appreciated :hail:

Sounds like Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison.

The prints are HUGE. I got to see one of their shows here at the George Eastman House.

No problem. You definitely should go! Looking at them on the web is nothing like seeing them in person. I found it to be an emotional experience wandering through those images.
