There is a school of thought that holds that artists' statements are exercises in ego gratification, and that they should be scorned and avoided, if not banned outright, lest they contaminate the artistic perception of the public.
While the first point is self-evident, the second is not. Even if the frames of our online gallery held more than the pixelated simulacra of the paper and pigment that matter to us, still each image carries with it the whim, coincidence, inspiration, and more than a little work that afforded its creation. To the extent that an understanding of the human history of an image enhances its meaning (and I am both awed and gratified by how often it does), a few words from the artist will never be entirely out of place.
RegoLux is a couple, not a corporation, and there are differences enough in our approaches to photography to describe them separately (through the links on the left.) Still, we have learned much together and our work has enough in common to mention here. To wit:
We tend, for the most part, to prefer the trees to the forest, available light to strobes, and the outside to the inside of a studio. We tend to shoot on negative film, print on an inkjet, and obsess over color anyway. We use Photoshop but we don't do very much with it (with a few increasingly notable exceptions). Mostly, though, we enjoy looking at the world with a photographer's eye: a camera provides inspiration and motivation to look at the world a second time, from another perspective, with purpose aforethought or just for the hell of it, and (through a print, or perhaps a website) to share the view with others.
