Josh Wool mostly works with portraits, lifestyle and fashion. My favorite photos of his so far are the ones in black and white. According to wool, he generally uses only natural light, which he finds “more dynamic.” “When you’re just sitting with someone and you’re in a chair, they’re in a chair, you’re having a conversation and you just happen to be taking pictures, that’s when the best photos come out—at least for me,” he says. His work was in a pair of pop-up exhibitions in Nashville organized by Joint, which showed emerging photographers alongside greats like Richard Avedon and Irving Penn. That's pretty impressive, right? The shallow depth of field really gets me, like hot damn.
