Ray H. Mercado
Stunning photography from Ray based in New York. As well as creating great photography, he also creates some great photo manipulation work. Using an image of an older gentleman from behind and an image of a cityscape, Ray can interestingly capture both with the road leading your eyes towards the gentleman's head and the skyline.
In addition to his photomanipulation, he can use his camera to create paint-like effects on his images. Using what's around Ray can capture an image that is slightly distorted but makes you question if it's been painted. I love this effect, being able to see what might not be an interesting image of someone walking down the street, has been turned into something a lot more intriguing because of the textured effect between the subjects and the camera.

Graded Unit - Inspiration for Shoot Three & Four (2000s - 2020s)
Markus Klinko
Born in 1961, Switzerland being of French, Italian, Jewish, and Hungarian descent, Klinko spent his early years training to become a classical harp soloist.  After a hand injury, Klinko decided to become a fashion photographer and retired from his international concert and recording career. During that time, he met Indrani, who later became a regular collaborator in her role as his studio's digital post production artist and photo editor.
Tumblr media
While working at the London Sunday Times, Isabella Blow noticed Klinko's photography and commissioned cover stories from the young photographer. Ingrid Sischy of Interview magazine engaged Klinko for numerous shoots around the same time. Iman and David Bowie then followed, providing the aspiring photographer the opportunity to capture them for their respective book (I am Iman) and album covers (Heathen)..
Tumblr media
He went on to design some of the most recognisable album covers of all time, including Beyonce's Dangerously in Love and Mariah Carey's The Emancipation of Mimi. The coffee table book ICONS contains several of Klinko's iconic celebrity images (Perseus). Many prints from the book were shown in an art exhibit at the Lincoln Center in New York, and his work has subsequently been featured in galleries and museums all around the world.

Matthew Smith
Matthew Smith, AKA mattko, has been attending raves since the late 80s, but his career photographing them didn’t begin until rave was criminalised by the Criminal Justice Act in 1994. “It was a direct response to our freedom being criminalised and restricted that motivated me, and it still is now.” Originally, Smith didn't set out to be a rave photographer; his camera abilities and position in the renowned UK rave culture of the late 1980s and early 1990s just made him one.
Tumblr media
 Smith began photographing indoor events for himself and a variety of music publications as the scene grew from unlicensed events in West Country farmland to clubs throughout Bristol and Manchester in the 1990s and early 2000s, capturing the intensity, creativity, debauchery, and unmitigated joy of the club scene.
Tumblr media
Now, more than 200 of Smith’s images from 2000-2005 have been compiled into the book Full On. Non Stop, All Over. Published by U.K. imprint TRIP Publishing and featuring an introduction by legendary electronic world writer Simon Reynolds, the photo book captures the rave scene in the brief moment before smartphones invaded our pockets, brains and venues, forever altering the way we experience the dancefloor and the present moment itself.
