In this episode of Art Vs The Algorithm, host Will Preisner sits down with renowned photographer Thomas Holm for a candid and deeply insightful conversation on the world of fine art nude photography. Thomas details his journey from inheriting his first camera as a teenager to mastering commercial campaigns and eventually finding his true creative voice through art nudes.
Together, they dive into the power of working with daylight, the importance of challenging yourself creatively, and why authentic connection with models leads to more unique and meaningful images. Thomas shares his perspective on creating pictures versus simply taking them, reflects on the impact of his upbringing and aesthetic influences, and explains why great photography is less about the gear and more about understanding light and composition.
Throughout the episode, Thomas unpacks the practical steps to finding your artistic voice, the delicate balance required to create tasteful and expressive images, and how his background in advertising helped shape his approach to directing models and building trust on set. They also explore the psychology of capturing emotion, the importance of curiosity, and how honesty and self-awareness lead to more original artistic work.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone passionate about photography, creativity, or the art of capturing genuine human stories through the lens.
