David Talley
David Talley is a self-taught fine art and portrait photographer, event photographer and cinematographer. He lives in South California.
His firest interest in photography was the summer before he started high school and he would his parents' camera to take pictures of various things. He took part in the 365-day creative self-portrait challenge a couple of years later and developed a love for photography.
On his website it states "David's work explores the darker side of a positive change - the fright before a new adventure, the uncertainty of a new love, and the mystery contained within every new situation faced by the characters he has created through his imagery."
He enjoys travelling and hiking. I read an interview he did back in August 2013 and learnt a lot about his imagery and his inspirations.

shot this image for a concept collaboration titled ‘Losing Ground’. I really
like the concept of this photo and I like how he literally made his subject
float and defy gravity. He titled it swept because he wanted to portray his
subject as being swept away by all her problems in her own little world. I
think he portrayed this nicely because the photo is dark and rather than
floating freely it looks like gravity is fighting against her and dragging her
back down to the ground. It has connotations of trying to let go of everything
that’s weighing you down but getting swept away by the problems.
