PEROU

“anything with people in it, innit”

Whilst grazing the plains of the internet, I stumbled upon PEROU, and I have to say, I instantly fell for his work. I find that im personally quite new to the world of photography and arentaware of many others But from browsing his website http://www.perou.co.uk, wanting to look at more of his imagery was more than demanding of myself.

Little background check on his biography says that he is a 'Photographer/ director/ tv thing and farmer' (lives on a farm in kent, I questioned the farmer statement too) and graduated PCL (the Polytechnic of Central London) in 1994.

almost aura-like lighting and positioning, sharp and shadows making this image look more dark, mysterious and sexy.

Bill Nighy,by Perou

One of my all time personal Favourite actor, this portrait image is suttle and reminds me of roles that he's portrayed

Terrance stamp,by Perou

'If the molehill wont come to Terrance, then Terrance will come to the molehill!'image is sharp and detail is impeccable. Using the colour blue behind works well with his eyes and tie aswell, well thought out and is an amazing portrait.

Marilyn Manson, By Perou, Los Angeles

I truely adore this man,and cannot go a day without listening to him or thinking 'I wonder what he's doing today?' the photo,closely related to the music video for '(S)aint' is innovative to 'traditional' portraits.
