Tabea Simple is a German photographer born in
Bucharest. Even though she has not been in photography for very long she does
express a very strong passion for it. By saying things such as “and now I know
that I will never live without it” & “I discover myself every time I take a
shoot from another person” (Quoted from her). From what I was able to see most
of her pictures mainly consisted of profile shots of human subjects. As for her
camera equipment she uses a Nikon D3x with multiple lenses, and a tripod.
The
three images above are from her “Love Ones” portfolio. With the first image one
can tell that the photographer has a good grasp on the concept of using light
and color, by having the colorfully dressed subject stand in swampy area. The
light from the sun is shining through the trees in the background creating a
cast of rays that surrounds the subject and hints a similar color found in her
dress. Also the surrounding water beautify reflects the light, colors, and
shadows of the background. Overall majority of her work gives off a very
ominous felling. Usually tending to be dark with the subject highlighted, this
can be seen in the other two images provided. For me her work is amazing, impactful
and sometimes disturbing, but it’s that atmosphere that she creates that keeps
me interested and wanting more.
