Composition love.

As a prop and photo stylist, I look at the small details such as if a thread is exposing itself from a garment or there is a finger print on a glass element. However; one BIG detail a photo stylist (especially prop) is composition. Asymetical, symmetrical, abstract, grid, negative space are all descriptions that are thought of with composition. This is my favorite part of my job!

Anthropologie is always throwing us a curve ball with their displays. This had everyone wanting to break the next display barrier!

Jcrew Holiday Catalog in 2011 played with placement and direction that makes me get lost in this image. I LOVE IT!

I love an image that makes you stop and question exactly what is happening and what you are "suppose" to feel.  This shot from Lotta Atagon does just that.  I love the upside down bowls (which probably had to be a bit tilted to make it obvious what the item is).  The "cut on the dotted line" concept is genious!
