William Wegman is a photographer who uses backgrounds in a interesting way to add onto the photograph. His photographs, usually ones with dogs, are not simple. He is mostly a studio based photographer who alters most of his orgiinal photos into ones he likes. For example, he will take an intresting picture of a dog in dark light, then use the darkness of the background to create something new. He will either make the dog darker, interwtwining the subject of the photo with the background, or he will alter the subject by adding interest
ing desgins onto it. Likewise to the dark photo, Wegman also uses his studio designs to create more dogs in the photograph then when he first shot it. He copies the dog from the original photo and creates an another subject by adding a second dog onto the photograph. After adding
the second subject (the dog), Wegman uses the background to add onto to what the dog
is doing.
Furthermore, William Wegman uses his dogs and other subjects to make the phographs more itneresting. For some of his photos, he willl have a dog in a certain pose, with another subject added into the photograph. For example, in one of his photos, Wegman took a picture of a dog standing with his head faced down in a old rams skull. This certain rams skull looked as though it was the dogs head, making both subjects more itnersting for the onlooker of the photograph. Likewise to the photograph below, Wegman uses many o his dogs in a certain pose to create a more intricate scene. He will add other objects like he has in the one below and make the photograph more interesting.
