Seattle Magazine mention-Best Local Arts for 2011
Here is a little mention in Seattle Magazine. It put a big smile on my face when I read it and I have to thank Hayley Young (Seattle Magazine staff phorographer) and Sue Boylan (Seattle Magazine Art Director) for this. I suspect they had something to do with this.
Most Beloved Local Photographer: Daniel Carrillo
Our favorite Seattle photographer doesn’t use the latest technology. His photos aren’t the crispest, or cleanest, or most colorful. But that’s exactly what makes his portraits so appealing. For the past two years, Daniel Carrillo has been documenting Seattle’s artistic community via gorgeous portraits taken using the “wet plate collodion” method, which was invented in 1850 and involves a giant, accordion-style camera, glass plates and extremely slow exposures. And while Carrillo (who has also shot portraits for Seattle magazine features) is hooked on this old-school approach, he doesn’t hesitate to acknowledge the new-school way his work gained acclaim: on Facebook.
