Christer Hansson







was browsing through the Blurb website more and I came across this title Pictures of the Year. It was by the author, Christer Hansson, winner of the prestigious title "Photographer of the Year 2009" in the biggest photo magazine in Scandinavia, and looking through his book and photography, it brought a different dynamic of the whole art of making books. Many of the spreads that he has are a picture on a plain white background and very little text.
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.
