"Media is Photography."
Danny Clinch was born in Tom’s river, New Jersey in 1964. Clinch photographs musical groups and individuals. His work has appeared on many album covers and inter art for bands like Foo Fighters, Metallica, Jack Johnson and Tupac. His work has also appeared in magazines and directed in films. Clinch attended Ocean County Community College in Tom’s river, New Jersey for two years and during that time decided he wanted to be a photographer. He transferred to The New England School of Photography in Boston for two years. Clinch graduated in 1985 and joined two photographic workshops. Bruce Davidson's "The Photograph as a Document," and The Ansel Adams Workshop in Yosemite where he worked with Annie Liebowitz. In 1986 he was invited to intern for her and worked his way up to becoming full time assistant. While there he got opportunities to travel the country and direct films. Clinch frequently uses his 35mm Leica and currently has a gallery exhibition in Washington DC with his work throughout his career.
I like this photograph Clinch took of Jack Johnson because, you can see the reflection in the window and door of what is behind him. I also like how he included the surfboards on the ceiling and how the shadows are on the floor and walls all point to Johnson. I also like the angle he took the photograph and how he portioned everything to be evenly spaced to create a sense of balance and unity while still having the reflections on the windows and door.
