Alex Ingram
I have been fortunate enough to spend time and work with Alex in previous classes over the past couple of years attending Cal State San Marcos, and I feel honored and amazed with the journey and process he went through to get to one of the top graduate schools for art. He has amazing photography skills and his networking skills and passion for art has allowed him to continue and further his education.
Ash Thorp
Ash Thorp has a very unique style of art that I have not ever seen before as a student. There are many layers and textures all mixed together that some how make sense with the theme of their piece and working with the many different mediums and formats, it is evident that Ash is an inspiration to many upcoming artists. Referring back to a lot of Pop culture items and the use of bright colors is great and appealing, so many audiences today can relate.

Katherine Westerhout
Katherine Westerhout has some the greatest and best photography of places/setting out of all the artists I have seen yet. Her shire passion for lighting and capturing contrast and colors is very inspirational and makes me want to learn more about film photography and secrets that can be unfolded when used correctly and mastered.

John G Moore
John Moore's book Spirit was one of my personal favorites out of the hand full of books that I looked through on Blurb.com. It has more of a personal connection with the fact that I was in Boy Scouts since I was in 5 until I was 18 and camping and hiking was something very important in my life and something that I did on a regular base and being out in the outdoors and nature.
The book covered 211 mile on the John Muir Trail the Sierra Nevada Mountains, which I have hiked personally. John was began his journey in Yosemite Valley, and making his way to one of the highest points in the US, Mt Whitney. I feel that his outdoor photography is phonemail and it is something that he enables people to see sites that some people would never be able to see. I have so many different ideas for books that I want to create and seeing more and more of these books is a great inspiration to pursue with the vision that I have.
Bernard Brault
Bernard Brault is a professional photographer from Montreal and for the past 33 years, he has covered news stories, sports, travel and portraits. In the book Vancouver 2010, Brault documents and publicly publishes his reel of what he
was able to capture at the 2010 Olympics. Many of the shoots will stand the sands of the time and it really captivates those memorable moments that happen every 4 years. I feel that this book is a great physical resume that clients and friends can purchase and share the images he was able to capture. I was reading through his bio and he was able to shoot the 1994 Olympics in Lillehammer Norway for a newspaper, she has had experience with the Olympics.
Christer Hansson
His book and concentration was centered on his photography and what was being shot. I feel that I have a very similar style in that the photos that are being printed have an over baring importance in my book and I want to the viewer to see and experience my photos with a clear mind and very little direction. Also in this book Hansson has many different subjected separated in the different chapters. His dedication to his photos and the different subjects and locations in very inspirational and encourages me to pursue my goal in life working in the photography and videography business and traveling the world, seeing and exploring new places.
