Casey Long

AS A PHOTOGRAPHER, CASEY HAS A STRONG INTEREST IN PORTRAITURE WORK, ESPECIALLY FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY BECAUSE OF HOW THE TYPE OF CLOTHES WE WEAR CAN GIVE US OUR OWN IDENTITY AND REPRESENT OURSELVES. CASEY ENJOYS EXPRESSING THE INDIVIDUAL THROUGH HER PHOTOS BY CAPTURING THEIR STYLE. THE CONTRASTS OF COLOUR WITHIN FASHION PHOTOGRAPHS ARE INTRIGUING AND SHOWCASES HOW VERSATILE A FASHION SHOOT CAN BE ADVERTISEMENT AND EDITORIAL. 

CASEY’S PRACTICE IS MAINLY EDITORIAL FASHION RATHER THAN COMMERCIAL. THIS IS BECAUSE SHE ENJOYS THE CREATIVE AND ‘PLAYFUL’ OUTCOME OF AN EDITORIAL SHOOT. SHE ALSO ENJOYS THE CONCEPT BEHIND AN EDITORIAL SHOOT, THE DISPLAY OF THE MEANING AND AFFECT. HER PRACTICE IS VERY CREATIVE AND UNIQUE AND SHE AIMS TO EXPRESS HER MODELS THROUGH THEIR OWN STYLE. WORKING ALONGSIDE COLOUR IS INTERESTING FOR CASEY AS IT CREATES A SENSE OF INDIVIDUALITY WITHIN HER PRACTICE.
