Reed Young

I first saw his name here and clicked over to see his site where I instantly got lost wandering through his photographs. Documentary photography really interests me, so Reed Young's trademark use of light and captions telling the story behind each photo quickly drew me in.











One of the more bizarre projects Reed Young has worked on is with Colors Magazine developing images for a futuristic, science fiction representation of the Swedish island of Vorland...

I find that I am drawn to ideas. Whether they are brilliant, simple, or aesthetically beautiful (to my eyes), they tend to be other people’s ideas. I have much respect for people who have the vulnerability to bring their ideas to life. My first internal reaction is often envy, but then it becomes gratitude – and gratefulness for a creator that enables people to bring to life the ideas that He gives them. Occasionally though, one of those ideas is my own. They don’t come often, but when they do, no matter how small or insignificant they may be, I am humbled and inspired. This is a place for me to exhibit those ideas, mostly others – sometimes my own.
