Luis Albuquerque

Posted on Mon, 18 Aug 2008 by KiM


Enjoy some beautiful photography from still-life photographer Luis Albuquerque, based in Toronto. The kitchen above has always been one of my favourites. Since I first saw it in I think a Canadian House & Home. Love the laboratory feel to it (and if I’m not mistaken the lighting is from a dentist’s office and the cabinets are from a lab).

Here’s another of the talented photographers in Tattersall Love’s stable. Uli Schade understands the beauty of natural light. Her photographs are moody and immediate. They pull you in and ignite your imagination.

When you know that London based photographerKristin Perers studied fashion and art, these beautiful and very intimate photos make more sense. She has an artist’s eye and a designer’s sense of styling. What I love the most about her work though is that it is real and unpretentious.
