The photography of RJ Shaughnessy is full of life and energy. His work achieves a balance between the naturally of spontaneous moments and excellence in photographic artistry, a blend that it is uniquely difficult to reach. It is real and it is powerful, anything but boring, even when the subjects and locations regular scenes what you can see each day in Los Angeles.

He has published two books, the excellent “Deathcamp” that follows his “on your face” style of photography and  ”Your golden opportunity is comeing very soon“.

I have a copy of “Your golden opportunity is comeing very soon“, that shows a completely different style of photography. These are images that focus on the use of texture and form using the black and white hard light of the night. It is about composition, about patterns and the extreme tonality of night photography.

Really amazing work.
