Photography by Isabell N Wedin

When I went to art-school several years ago I began to look at images in a new way. Before going I tried to make images that other people would like. It didn't really matter if I left my mark on them, or if I even liked them that much. But art-school changed that and it made me realize that what matters, is that you find the beauty in what you do. That's why I haven't shown a painting since the grad-show in 2006. I don't want people to look at them, they are for my eyes only. When I do photography it's different in the way that, I get to make art together with someone that I find interesting, intriguing or that I just simply happen to love. I believe that this is one of the main reasons to why I photograph people. It's the interaction and the accidental, the fact that things I can't imagine just happens. I recently realized that I have the tendency to adapt myself to my objects. What I mean is that, of course I have my own personal style but I don't narrow myself down and make it the only expression during a shoot. It's more important to be aware of the person you're shooting and the kind of energy he or her provides, the rest will follow. Susan, in the images below has a very delicate and quiet character which leaves you with the desire of wanting to know more. I'm in love with her red hair and her pail skin. She truly is beautiful...
