DIY Photography has a great feature up right now about cinematographer Harris Savides, and his work. I had never heard the name Harris Savides, but I’ve definitely seen his work before. His quote ‘I light a room and let the people inhabit it, as opposed to lighting the people,’ really tells you where he’s at as a lighting guy. So many photographers figure out an effect or a lighting trick and then everything they do has that effect or trick in it. Having the style of no style allows you to go to so many different places, and do so many different things. Starting from Why you’re doing something, and making choices from there, as opposed to just doing what you always do…. it’s always better to do something with purpose, instead of as a default.
