  it often creates a good balance of contrast. not too much, not too little. and it is easy to get a good exposure.

  it is a way of making yourself look "exclusive". one of the least important values mid- and post-crisis.

  try thinking of usefullness, vanity designers.

  Haha, guilty as charged. I know I'm definitely not the first person to shoot their work in this way.

  I must say though, I really don't think Madethought were the first people to do this. Going all the way back to design school, I was always taught that work looks best on a neutral background (I think white and black can sometimes work better than gray—depends on what's being shot) that sets the work off without creating distractions. Also, it's a simple way to show the work in an uncluttered environment.

  Do you have a better solution forcetwelve?

  ^ I don't mean that to sound confrontational... I'm genuinely wondering about new or better ways of shooting work, because I think some of my work could be presented in a better way... just not sure what that is.

  I'd rather be sick of the work in front of the grey than the grey itself

  • probably should read "more often sick of"– Rand

  I've been photographing myself photographing photographs of my work. It's incredibly boring, but so worth it
