Visual inspiration: Great environmental portraits of craftsmen in their workshops captured by Dean Bradshaw.
These excellent portraits of three crafstmen in their workshops by Los Angeles-based photographer Dean Bradshaw show great usage of lighting to convey mood.
Combining documentary and commercial aesthetics, Dean photographed a metalworker in Venice Beach, as well as a carpenter and a machinist, both working in Downtown LA. Here’s a few photos from each shoot – view the entire project here, and more of Dean’s work on his website.
