Self Portrait, 2018
BIO
Shanette Savage was a mature student who earned a first class B.A. degree in Portraiture and ‘Staged’ (often referred to as Conceptual) Photography.
Since leaving university her interest in nature and all things wild has taken her work in a different direction. The meticulous attention to details which she constantly employed during her studies, is evident in her current images.
Inter-action with people remains important to her, and she is frequently asked to photograph events.
When asked how these two interests are inter-related, she replies, “People at events are very similar to creatures and flora & fauna in the wild. At events, people are frequently more relaxed/natural than for a formal portrait; as in nature, they adapt to their surroundings often making images more interesting as the subject is unaware of the point of capture.”
