Esmahan Ozkan's Black and White Photography is Romantic
Meghan Young — February 11, 2010 — Fashion
As I browsed through Esmahan Ozkan’s photography, I couldn’t help but think of classic black and white, romanticized postcards and calendars. This may be a bad thing considering postcards and calendars are so commercial and rather insipid at times, yet Esmahan Ozkan is far from that.
Getting past the highly treated images, even embracing them, there is an underlying emotion in Esmahan Ozkan’s work that cannot be denied. Take a look at the gallery above to see what I mean.
