Emmanuel at Harmon

Written By Joel Timothy

Back in June I had an idea for a photoshoot that I wanted to do with a friend. A few text messages and chats later, Emmanuel and I met up at a parking garage in Fayetteville and made some images. Not only are these photos the best ones from that shoot, but a number of them are among my very favourite photos I’ve made to date. Emmanuel did a fantastic job, and I was so happy to get the finished shots to him. It was hardly even work to edit these. I hope you enjoy them.

love,

Geeky Things

  • Camera: Fuji X-Pro2

  • Lenses: Fuji 35mm f/2, 90mm f/2, Minolta Rokkor PF 58mm f/1.4

  • Location: Harmon Parking Garage, Fayetteville, AR

  • Notes: The number one person I take inspiration from these days when it comes to photography is Phil Sharp, a portrait photographer from England. Phil is a master of shaping light, and this shoot and the way I chose to do it was largely inspired by him. I tried to use the setting sun in a way similar to how Phil lights some of his portraits, and while I wouldn’t say I achieved the same results, I am very happy with what I got.

I'm Joel, a storyteller from a rural town in northern Illinois, now based in Northwest Arkansas. I grew up spending a lot of time out of doors, and much of my indoor time with my nose in a book, two things that combined to create a passion for beautiful things and inspiring stories. I love capturing the real moments of life, in a way that reminds us that beauty isn't reserved for the extraordinary, but a part of everyday existence. In my writing and in my photography I seek to portray life as it truly is: totally miraculous, and wonderfully beautiful.
