The Photography of Joe Quinto
Joe Quinto is a photographer based in Los Angeles, California, where he specializes in Portraits, Music and Fashion photography. His work have a touch of expressionism mixed with some urban elements is quite interesting the vision he offers, because he can show the mundane with plenty of glamour, and the glamour of entertaining with a sprinkle of the common living.
In his webpage joequinto.com there is his work, a unique mix of photography that is really fun to watch, as the reason is there a unique blend of people that appeared in front of his lent, one of those photos that I really liked is in the portrait section, a mechanic named Miguelito, the color palette is appealing it looks like a paint, but it brings me a nostalgia factor found in the Andy Warhol work, where the use of vibrant color made a contrast with interesting characters, not only superstars but people from the folk.
The music section, is one of the most interesting subjects ever such as Queens of the Stone Age, guys from Mudvayne, musician Val Emmich and many others, where they pose more relaxed and naturally and the viewers can see a human facet of their favorite idols; the other section that is really cool to see the one named Alive, where there are live photos of concerts and the composition is quite unique.
Due copyrights issues, I cannot post any photos of Joe here in this entry, but if you click here you can go to his webpage and enjoy is fantastic work.
