Sally Mann
Sally Mann is an American photographer, best known for her large black-and-white photographs—at first of her young children, then later of landscapes suggesting decay and death.
Sally Mann (born in Lexington, Virginia, 1951) is one of America’s most renowned photographers. She has received numerous awards, including NEA, NEH, and Guggenheim Foundation grants, and her work is held by major institutions internationally. Her many books include Second Sight (1983), At Twelve (1988), Immediate Family (1992), Still Time (1994), What Remains (2003), Deep South (2005), Proud Flesh (2009), and The Flesh and the Spirit (2010).

“Few photographers of any time or place have matched Sally Mann’s steadiness of simple eyesight, her serene technical brilliance, and the clearly communicated eloquence she derives from her subjects, human and otherwise – subjects observed with an ardor that is all but indistinguishable from love.”

Karl Beath
Karl Beath started out as a landscape photographer before moving on to architectural photography. Karl found it, as a natural progression, the built environment within nature’s landscape, since both avenues follow similar concepts, only this time the architect is the creator. In his photographs he aims to capture their vision by using available light and careful composition, as with all his photography he strives to create an image so that the whole is a balanced sum of its parts. Composing and balancing the natural and built world with its numerous interacting planes, colours and light – enables him to convey the dramatic nature of the raw experience with one that is also pleasing to the eye.
