Stephanie Gonot is a Los Angeles based photographer who specialises in still life photography. She’s works freelance and has provided images for big companies such as Adidas and Vice Magazine. Her images demonstrate the use of bold coloured items against similarly bold and usually patterned backgrounds.

‘5-Course Microwave’
I think her choice of imagery is striking. each of the items used within her images are so clear and vivid with there usually being a nice blend of matching and contrasting colours. A lot of her work also combines peculiar items together to add to the matching/contrasting look that she creates. The shadows of the items are there but they’re ever so subtle that it doesn’t take anything away from the overall image.
I’m going to mimic her style of bringing together unassociated objects and using clashing colours within the background and subject items as it makes for interesting viewing and is open to interpretation and, if done right, can look stunning.

There’s a lot more interesting and experimental imagery on her Flickr, but I’ve taken the images used in this from her professional website.
