Amanda Norman





Amanda Norman is a photographer i have come across who is passionate about dark photography and specialises in dark portraits and graveyard photography. Her inspiration is taken from old universal films staring Borris Karloff and Lon Chaney and the old professional actor portraits that had would have a dark and creepy feel to them.
She has stated that she believe that modern technology has replaced the viewers own imagination and wishes that through her own work to create images that can capture the viewers own imagination, to be able to allow the dark atmosphere to linger.
The photographs taken in graveyards seems to really capture the architecture and design of the statues and headstones. she states that when photographing she tried to images the person who the grave belongs to and often feels peaceful when on a shoot. she wised to provoke a wide range of emotions with her images and capture them within her own work.
