One unconventional photographer I became interested in is Todd Hido. He came to Alfred University last semester to give a presentation on his photography. One of his main bodies of work were a series of photos taken of houses at night. Hearing him explain his process of photographing these places at night was really interesting, though I could not tell you how he does it. The images come out eerie, mysterious, beautiful. It is amazing how he is able to take something so ordinary, the view of a house from the street as well as the types of houses, and make them something extraordinary. It also adds another layer of understanding to be able to hear the artist talk about his work directly.
