  • What is our culture without the people who document it? Gunner Stahl-a 25-year-old photographer from Atlanta, Georgia-does exactly that. Over the past few years, he's made a name for himself by capturing intimate moments of many of our culture's most celebrated figures. With a photography style that can be described simply as pure and a laid-back demeanor, Gunner has made it his business to be in the right place at the right time and has found success by just being himself.

    This goes to show that you don’t have a technical photographer to make it or have thousands of dollars worth of equipment. It’s all about how you capture the visual. People gravitate towards that eye. Talent wise I don’t see why people gush about the content but it is different. Salute to gunner for making it happen in his own way.

      @Robinkuehn 4 года назад +5

      The problem with his work is that often it seems really snap shot like and his Portraits most of the time don't include creative poses but just face shots.
      Also the assumption that just because it's film it's artsy plays a big role here.

    • @MRAWESOMECRIS
      @MRAWESOMECRIS 4 года назад +1

      @@Robinkuehn pretty sure celebs like him because he DOESN'T ask them to do some corny creative poses. You could go all commercial and have perfect portraits and take some gorgeous images but when its comes to celebrities we've all seen that a million times. Also I think In general people are looking for more "feel" over something pristine hence the popularity of Film and even vinyl these days. If you're looking at the technical side than yeah it's not groundbreaking at all but the flawed personal and raw snapshot of someone loved my millions, that looks and feels like it was taken by a friend, has definitely resonated with a lot of people. I'd take a photo that impacts someone over a perfect portrait anyday.

    • @Robinkuehn
      @Robinkuehn 4 года назад +1

      @@MRAWESOMECRIS but there is not much skill involved in this. It is a picture that a friend could have taken, that's the point.
      Not saying that I don't understand why it is popular just not agreeing on him being a good artist or photographer.

    Not gonna lie, the actual pics are BASURA. But to shoot hip hop, edits and specifics don’t matter. It’s about capturing time and being able to reference memories unknown to the public regarding revered* people in the limelight.
    That’s massive, much respect.

    See i like this Caption Raps rawest photographer. The other one said "Hip-Hops top Photographer" Hip-Hop is a Culture so if you do shoot the culture your not Hip-Hop. I think this kid got mad heart n drive this is his lane!!!!! Jamel Shabazz n Ernie Panicolli should meet him!!!! Hip-Hop history in the making of different generations!!! Jinx got a Samson shirt on ha! ha! I used to think that said Stussy back in the day! Everybody on this skateboard rock style. That was early 80s for us with newave 82 right when we commited to Hip-Hop. But we actually went to the concerts n loved the music some kids i see just like the vusual fashion they dont know history of the group or what they 're into. One kid had a Metallica and AC/ DC shirt on he didnt know no songs by the group or understand what they were about. Smh
