Paul Tucker

Paul Tucker is an 'up and coming' London based photographer, he works with a range of different galleries, artists and designers to ensure a comprehensive photographic service. He is capable of working across many different genres of photography rather than sticking to one individual genre. 

I have chosen Paul Tucker as one of my photographers to influence me because I love his images from his 'Beside the Seaside' project. The series of images show such a beautiful colour tone to them, slight undersaturated which I think works very well for seascapes to stay away from the typical over saturation. 



These two images are my favourite from his series.
As you can see both the images are in square format, from which I noticed that Paul Tucker has done for the majority of his projects, which I think makes a nice change when looking at landscapes in square format.  
In the first image I love the depth of field leading towards the end of the wooden pier. I also really admire his toning of the image and how the natural lighting has brightened up the image so much that the whites almost disappear. 
When looking at the second image I am immediately drawn to the framing with the sign post pole positioned directly in the centre of the frame, I am a big fan of centring when best and the symmetry that it creates when it splits down the frame.
