Andrea Sonnenberg

Anna Sonnenberg
Californian contemporary photographer

I really thought I had posted on this Anna as I went to reference her work drawing a comparison to Jared (previous post).
So here it is

Images are sourced from her website
images appear in continuous reel 
(did not seem to have defined series)

Like Jared this artist mimics the snapshot. The sense of spontaneity appears strongly; telling intuitive  stories about friends, strangers and locations from one unique perspective; which belongs to Anna. 
There is a youthfulness present through much of her work - scenes of music moshes/death circles and cultures and scenes that are embraced by youth.
Raw images shot from eye level draw the viewer closer in to the world that encapsulates Anna; we are given the chance to stand exactly where she exists and it's just cool.

Colour is celebrated through character and landscape
