Angie McMonigal is an American Photographer whose
work has been awarded and displayed all over the world. She has been taking
photographs scene 2001, once she become more involved in photography she
attended a few classes but most of what she knows is self-taught. Her focus in
photography is “an exploring the broader urban landscape, its architectural
details and how we express ourselves within this landscape” (quoted by
McMonigal on her personal website). For her camera equipment she uses a Nikon
D700 with multiple lenses. Over-all she tries to keep her equipment to a minimum,
only using things such as a tripod and flash when deemed necessary.
The three images above are from her Architecture
portfolio. With these images it is clear that she prefers architectural
photography. What interests me most about these images is how they each convey
a sense of time moving on. In the first
image do to the massive size to the two building they look as though they are
both converging on a single point, and would meet if they continued on in
height. Something such this looks very simplistic yet it hold a multitude of information
and thought. The main reason I was attracted to her work is how she approaches the
world with her camera to bring a now outlook on life.
