Kim's thoughts on photographing with Sylvie & Ed

It’s one thing to be with an artist and look at their work in their company. I believe this really enables you to see the work in a different way. The connection between the art and the person opens up an all new and different way to see their work. On the other hand to actually work with artists together on a photo shoot is a dream come true. For me to work with Sylvie and Ed was so exciting and exhilarating. A creative high you didn’t want to end. Working together enlightened my respect for both of these great artist’s work and only increased after spending 2 days photographing together. Taking photographs can be a very personal introspective action. So to be in the midst of two other people photographing – all three lost in their own work and at the same time wrapped up in the other two’s worlds, was unbelieving exciting and rewarding for me as a photographer. Good friendships became great friendships after sharing such excitement and intimacy together. Like any great experience I can’t wait to do it again! Thanks to Ed, Sylvie, Deter, Gina and our 2 great models!
