Perou.

Factual-

Ralph John Perou (born May 1970), known professionally as Perou, is a British fashion, portrait and music photographer who has also appeared as a judge onMake Me a Supermodel UK and on season 2 of Bravo TV's American Make Me a Supermodel. He was part of the T.V series called "Dirty Sexy Things" on the British network E4 which aired in 2011. Perou photographed models to be put in his exhibition at the end of the series.

Perou was born in Newick, a small village in East Sussex, England. Perou has stated that he, ‘had a very happy, carefree childhood growing up in the countryside. It's where I discovered my love of English cider’^[1] He went to primary school at Newick Church of England school and completed secondary school at Chailey andHaywards Heath Sixth form. When Perou finished his Religious Studies and Design A levels he considered a career as a long-distance lorry driver or as a missionary. But Perou states that he ‘saw the dark’ and after a short stint as a butler he completed a BTEC OND in Design Photography at North East Surrey College of Technology.

Between 1991-1994 Perou studied for a BA Hons degree in Photography, Film and Video Arts at the University of Westminster.

Context-

These's photo have been mostly  taken of  people we all know (famous people) e.g Tom Daily. Mostly these photo have been taken as a series o images not just one image.

Technical-

All of these photo have been taken in a studio using a digital camera.

In the first image i think the red stuff(could be paint)i think it has been done on photo shop because the paint would be on them and very easy to seek,but cant see any so i think its been edited in.

Anesthetics-

I really like all of these photo and all of perou's work because all of him images and these's images are all very basic but very effected and easy to understand the effect he was trying to go for,they all show something different although they are all in the same sort of style.
