Alex Prager is a Los Angeles based photographer filmmaker.
Prager’s use of bold colors and specifically placed lighting really sets her
apart. Many of her most striking photographs feature intense angles and sharp
contrast. She uses editing to her advantage and creates many optical illusions
within her photographs, such as the car being engulfed by a puddle on the
middle of the freeway. Her editing is
also very tasteful and does a great job creating believable but shocking
subjects and compositions.
Prager’s art has a very cinematic feel to it that I find
very aesthetically pleasing. She is also a filmmaker, which I think helps her
to understand the motion and fluidity that photographs can have. In addition to
that, her choice of model/wardrobe is very important and gives a lot of her
photos a vintage feel while also giving them a consistent theatrical element. I
think she she is skilled in using imagery reminiscent of Hitchcock and it adds
a lot of context to her pieces.
