Story of every creative professionals life…

I think every creative on the planet can tell you a story about how someone; a start-up business, a big business, a self professed entrepreneur or even a close friend has asked them to work for free or for a beer or for ‘more work in the future’. Take note anyone asking for creative services:

ASSUMING NO VALUE IN A CREATIVES WORK, NO MATTER WHAT FIELD, IS LIKE SPITTING IN THEIR FACE.

Thanks to Gerry Mak from Lost at Eminor for finding this.

Paul Barbera

“Paul Barbera was born in Melbourne, Australia. Paul works between Melbourne and Amsterdam, also living in various locales that include Berlin, Prague, Singapore and Rome. During this time, he has established himself as an interiors and fashion photographer, working with publications like View on Color, Bloom, Elle Decor, Freudin, Grazia, Vogue Living and Jalouse.

Working on advertising and editorial work while also expanding into new projects that include books and exhibitions…” …this is where my love of Paul’s work come in (not that I don’t like his commercial work). His projects LOVE LOST and WHERE THEY CREATE are saving my sanity at the moment, so I’m glad I found them when I did. The images are real, they are honest and they are simply beautiful. Anything that cuts through the make believe glamour and bullshit of the mainstream money culture has my respect. I love the way Paul see’s the world and recommend you take a look at his sites to see his work in full context.

His portraits are stunning and his studio work simply beautiful. Take a few moments from your day and absorb life as seen through his lense… You can see him in action here.
