Gregory Crewdson



 
Gregory Crewdson is an American photographer who creates huge beautiful photographs in which each detailed part is considered and chosen by him.  The pictures are elaborately staged and lighted similar to a feature film using cranes and lighting rigs in order to get the effect he wishes.  His photographs often take place in small town America and  often feature surreal, dramatic events.
I love the narrative the art work creates.  There is a terrific documentary about him which I happened to catch yesterday, well worth watching.
