Collier Schorr

Collier Schorr had a really strong message. You can see she has a strong passion for shooting adolescent men and how she depicts them in different settings. She tries to take real events but then reenact them in different ways. I found her work kinda weird, and kinda seemed obsessive in the video since all we saw was her work of young men. When i looked up her work online you can see she has a passion for photgraphing both adolescent men and women. The way she speaks about what she is shooting and the whole concept of men and masculity you can tell she is shooting something she loves, something some of us have a difficult time trying do (find our one passion, and then actually pursing it) Her work is inspiring because I find it such a talent to be able to get your message across in your pictures which i think she does quite well when she explains it.

I personally thought her work was inspiring but I personally didn't think it was anything special or extraordinary. But I don't think that was her purpose.
