Profotos Staff Evaluation:
Mysterious, dark, and devoid
of any solid emotion are the human models in the portfolio of
William Ropp. In Ropp's world, his models appear to be isolated
from the world in an often eerie and peculiar atmosphere. Small
slivers of light fall upon these human forms, which serve to
add a real sense of the unknown in Ropp's mysterious world.
William Ropp is a masterful artist and photographer, who approches
his subject matter in a way which is quite different than most
photographers we have reviewed on Profotos. While most photographers
attempt to produce flattering images of their models, which accentuate
their bodies beautiful shapes and curves, Ropp's approach to
exploring his subjects is to contort their bodies into bizarre
shapes and forms. The results of this approach are nothing less
than astonishing. The magnificent aesthetic beauty of Ropp's
images is without a doubt, nothing short of the work of a master
photographer.
Mystery and intrigue await while you enter the portfolio of
this most ingenious photographer. We invite you to browse the
gallery of one of this generation's greatest photographers of
the human body - William Ropp.
