Andrés Medina was born in Madrid in 1978. He works as art director at an advertising agency in Madrid, Spain.
In his work as a photographer only uses analog cameras, mostly medium format. It started with digital photography but when two years ago he discovered the medium format cameras and began to use different films, he realized he loved traditional photography chemicals, the developing and photographic enlargements. From that moment on, he only use analog cameras, has a Yashica Mat 124g, Lubitel 2, two Zenza Bronica (S2 and EC-TL) with a few lens, Canon AE-1 Program, Olympus XA2…
Andrés taught himself to use these cameras and measure the light, asking other photographers and seeing the work of the ‘great photographers’ in books and internet.
He like to capture special moments in his life and his aim is to keep them alive and safe in his photographic memory. He try to convey a sense of emotion within every photograph he make.
In general he seek out places which you wouldn’t usually expect to be photographed.

Create: cre-ate (verb): to give rise to something; to produce inventions or art. These two descriptions are the two-fold structure that Photographer Sean Getti inhibits. Raised in Toronto, Canada, Getti rose to the art scene almost a decade ago. With an innate talent to express his art visually, Getti elevates what others may view as unadorned-and fashions pieces of work that verbalize the focal point of the image.
Not only highly respected for his instinctive eye, Getti establishes communication between the observer and his work. Leaders in industries across the board have sought Getti to capture their look, brand, message and voice. From the corporate world to independent companies to individuals, Getti’s ability to translate their ideas and trademarks maintains a standard that not only impacts their designated demographics, but also an appreciation by all others.
Always proficient and takes pride in his craft- Sean Getti continues to push boundaries and techniques to form original editorials, beauty shots, and portraits. Getti creates landscapes and distinguished images, from the initial shot to the editing stage – a phase in Getti’s inventive process that has gained him high notability. Already setting the standard for many- Getti re-invents ways to depict and embody the heart of the image.
“I’ve always had the drive and desire to share with those around me how I perceive and view things… I continually want to converse with the world the way I see it”. – Sean Getti.
Ever since some creative know-it-all came up with this widespread witticism, saying “One Picture is Worth Ten Thousand Words”, the necessity to say anything about Oliver Rath is basically obsolete. Year of birth (78), Place of birth (Heidelberg) – who cares about it anyway? His mover/shaker-mentality, his DJing-past, his talent to translate boredom of one thing into a passion for another one – it is all nice things to say about him, but you actually don’t need to know. His DIY-enthusiasm, that built up the whole technical foundation of his existence as a photographer, his mindscape that no school in this world could have teach him, his creative lunacy that’s hidden beneath this Frankish and easy going surface – they are all pretty ornaments for writings like these, but still: anything you could say about him doesn’t come close to the impression of his pictures.
Those are pictures of a maniac. His imagery is infiltrated by codes of urban hedonism, yet ruptured by sometimes prankish, sometimes caustic humour. It is a hard and rough picture language, a language without diplomatic attachments or compromise, but fuelled with unchecked temper and elegant to subtle sense for semantics. He takes everything in that makes a good picture: geometry, contrast, perspective, arrangement. But more than that, he’s a master of those little things, that push a good picture to become an outstanding one. He is the advocate of maximizing impacts. He’ll find the big talk even in the smallest gestures. He might just slam you in the face with a picture. But he might lick your wounds with the very next one. His sense for the right sentiment is without comparison, be it on national or international scale. Call him man of the moment. What do I say? Call him a depicting chronicler of the Zeitgeist. Well, why do I say so much anyway? Just find one of his pictures and call him your new favourite photographer.

Lowpop is the tremendous ear catchy moniker of Lille based french graphic designer & wannabe art director Baptiste Ringot. It could be translated by “HighRock”, but it was smarter to get along with Lowpop. Since always highly attracted by rough & loud music and art, these two obsessions became bounded the day I made my first poster for one my rock band (Wich was absolutely crappy BTW). Right after that, i followed a three days class in film photography with a genius photographer, and that was launched. I wanted to be a graphic artist, whatever the media, or even the disappointments, difficulties.
Inspired by the hidden dark side of each human being on earth, strange things, disturbing visuals, torn heart artists, poets, my style is slowly constructing itself as time roll his unavoidable wheel. But one thing for sure, it’s gonna be darker & darker, as i’m getting more & more confident… the keyword for my life’s brief is melancholy and i take all my strenght from that. I’ve grown each time I took a train in the face.
Highly sensitive, i never work with clients or money makers, always with human beings, collaborating to get the best of their idea, or purposing them mine. I love to have creative control of what i do, it’s a need. Hyperactive boy, i’m about to drop side projects, to express my creativity and explore new fields. Morning Decay, wich is an experiment about creativity, how it reacts with environment, how it evolves with time and training. It’s also a good way to measure how creativity enhances itself over time. And The plastic Lense ghost door, a side project as a film photographer, wich is a good way to have fun under the red lights, working with wrecked old cameras.
Maybe someday i’ll stop all of this to start video arts, or become a cooker, explore Tibet, who knows. But for now, i’m a graphic designer, my name is lowpop, and i’m here to work with you.

Andrew Brooks is a photographer, a digital artist and film maker living and working in Manchester, northwest England.
His visual palette draws its inspirations from analogue reality, the contemporary urban surroundings in which he lives and works or the natural world that he escapes into.
“The crucial element to my work is atmosphere…. No matter how much digital application is going on, the atmosphere and feel of a picture is always the most important thing.”
Andrew’s creative process often results in capturing hundreds of images to create a complete work. Then, a meticulously developed sequence of cut, paste and rebuilding, moulding a new scene from his own vividly re-imagined viewpoint that is consistent, yet also a parallel with that of the perceived reality it represents.
The images that emerge depict starkly beautiful urban scenes, empty but for the hollowed-out shells of buildings; cities suspended in the stars, imagined urban environments and serene pastoral scenes of the British countryside, seemingly real and at the same time untruthful in their vivid beauty.
Mi-zo. Photographer Zoren Gold and graphic artist Minori Murakami met in Los Angeles and started collabrating as a photographer duo since 2000. The duo had been based in Tokyo for the past 7 years. Now, they live and work in Los Angeles.

My name is Andrés Medina, I’m a photographer based in Madrid (Spain). From a very early age I showed interest in the plastic arts, writing and drawing. As a kid I enjoyed comic books, films and any museums or expos I was taken to.
I like to capture especial moments in my life, in order to keep them alive and safe in my memory. I try to convey big emotional feelings on every photo I take.
Overall I seeking places no one expects them to be photographed.
I’m interested in locations which are beyond the space of everyday life. Places away from people, empty or in a moment when there is no activity.
These sites are usually gloomy, with a cold atmosphere and sometimes produce uncomfortable rejection or who observes them. Another inspiration are the forms and lines in urban landscapes. Civil construction, building works or transportation centers that inspire me to compose my photographs. I enjoy composing for building structures and architectural elements of the cities. I try to get my distinctive signature, while at the same time use them as the cohesive element of all my work.
You never know where you’ll find an interesting place to photograph.
