"If I had to use two words, I would say dark and mysterious. I play with lighting often in my work, covering things in darkness to hide from the viewer, but still visible if you look close enough. I appreciate the mystery of searching to find answers. I see photography as a way of posing a question. The viewer looks at the photo, then comes up with an answer. The answer would be their interpretation of what they see."

Every artist has an approach that they take with their work. Be sure to explain your specific approach, giving details about the why and how of your process. The more specific you can be, the better. This will demonstrate a strong awareness of your craft and thus, impress the interviewer. This question is a bit different from the one asking about your type of photography. Here you want to explain what makes your work different from someone working in the same genre.

"My photographic style would be described as intimate. I enjoy taking pictures that are up close and personal of people, animals, and insects. I really like getting images of the eyes. The subject is looking at the camera, and when the viewer sees the subject, they get such insight. In my work, I try to convey the idea that the eye is the lamp to the body."
