2007 Holiday Gift Guide – Spotlight on MKendall Photographs

Thursday, December 13th, 2007 at 2:17 pm | Comments

Designer Spotlight – Mkendall Photographs creates a delightfully dreamy world I long to get lost in!

Type Flower Print from MKendall PhotographsI love the look and feel of vintage typewriters.  Maybe it's the writer in me, and the romanticism of pouring your creative ideas out through the clicking of metal keys.

Either way, photographer Morgan Kendall uses the layering of images to create photos that evoke a dreamlike state.  

The combination of the mechanism of the typewriter with the bright pink of the flower peeking through in slivers of Morgan's Type Flower Print makes me love this photograph even more than if it was strictly of the typewriter.

Morgan has a few other in her typewriter series, as well as some gorgeous light-inspired photos, like this one of a sunset in Tahiti over-layed with streaky lights.

Mkendall Photographs creates stunning images by pairing seemingly dissimilar images to create a delightfully dreamy world I long to get lost in.
