Aesthetic

Looking at imagery for my photos, I stumbled upon some portraits using neon lighting, or lights with red and blue tints in. This made me feel connected to the photos, for some reason the aura and atmosphere gives the air of truth, or at least the underlying, almost promiscuous, nature of not only the photos itself but the person in the image. I think if you were to take a photo of the same person in ambient lighting and then again next to a pink or red neon light, the feeling of it would be entirely different.

Somehow the photos feel more truthful, because it looks to be an image baring the models soul. The sensuality of it creates the feeling of secrecy and intimacy.
