Emily Stein started taking photographs in the last term of her Fine Art degree. Never able to concentrate long enough to finish a painting, she picked up a camera and immediately fell in love with photography. Taking pictures enabled her two great loves: going on adventures and meeting new people.
Through a bright but soft palette of colours, her natural gift is being able to capture places and people energy and individuality. Besides her personal projects, these days she photographs people of all ages, often for commercial clients such as MTV, Vice and Puma.
About ‘Bubblegum!’ – words by Emily Stein:
The series of children blowing bubblegum on beaches around the world is a portrait of the freedom, innocence and joy of youth. The range of facial expressions as the children blow the gum – frustration, excitement, surprise, concentration – tell a story in themselves.
