Mark Steinmetz is a photographer based in Athens, Georgia that creates beautiful contemporary black and white imagery through innovative and classical compositions. Mark’s stunning photographs illuminate a strong sense of narrative depicting personality through his portraits and furthermore documenting the essence of a moment in time.
Reflecting upon his concentration on his monochrome colour palate Steinmetz explained “Black-and-white has more stillness to it, you can be absorbed into it in a different way. You have to employ your poetic imagination. With colour, I just have an argument! Is the green really this green, or is that the green of Kodak? I’m more interested in the narrative, the human, the interior depth of what I’m photographing – I really don’t want to be distracted by bright-red outerwear.”
