Oscar Gustav Rejlander, a Swede painter, was born probably in 1883 to Carl Gustaf Rejlander, a Swedish Army Officer. Oscar studied art in Rome and initially settled in England. Abandoning his original line of work as an artist and portrait painter, he turned to photography. One of the assistants of Fox Talbot inspired him.

#1: It should be interesting to look at

Nude photography is synonymous with that branch of photography known as 'fine art'. Fine art photography can be defined as 'photography created for no other purpose than because it's interesting to look at'. As such, nude female photography is about presenting the female form in a way that is interesting.

In order to make an interesting image, nude female photography tends to favor black-and-white images that are full of light, shadow, shape, and contrast. There are usually carefully composed and lit in order to achieve this.

Rejlander was a pioneer in this genre of photographic composition and is considered the most successful art photographer of his era. His primary composition print was called 'Groupe Printed from Three Negatives' and was displayed in December 1855. The same year, Oscar participated in the Paris Exhibition. Being a creative person, he styled his studio in a unique and an unusual way, bent like a cone. The camera was placed at the narrow part in shadow and the sitters at the opposite end, so that they are unaware of the camera.

It was interesting to find that my host for the main event also blurs the background in order to make the commercial item the main things that matters in the composition - as though the sharpness and the clarity of the commercial item makes potential buyers finely see the product clearly. In commercial photography, the food photographer treats the food much as a still life photographer would. Except in food photography, the goal of the photographer is two-fold: to make the shoot look artistic and to make the subject look absolutely, mouth-wateringly delicious in order to entice the target audience. Another thing that makes this kind of photography different than other types of photography like industrial or business commercial photography is the necessity to either be quick at taking the pictures or have lots of the same kind of food on hand. Food does not always stay fresh for very long. It is a singular dilemma, but food photographers are ready for this kind of hitch in the proceedings.

In 1862, after moving his studio to Malden Road in London, he kept polishing and excelling in his photographic techniques. The same year, he married his favorite model Mary Bull. Soon after, Oscar's key subjects took the fancy of social issues, of which “Poor Joe” and “Homeless” are a couple of examples. The demonstration of the different human expressions of Charles Darwin's book “The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals” (1872) is one of his most appreciated works. During his final years, Oscar Rejlander returned to painting, but to no gain and died in poverty. He fell ill in 1874 and died in 1875
