Tom Hussey

Tom Hussey is an award-winning, international, commercial photographer. He runs a full- production photography studio. Looking through his photos they focus on age or social everyday issues.


This photo is very creative and clear but still has a emotive context to it. This photo resembles sadness but happiness. I think as he is looking back in the mirror at himself to reminisc what his life used to be like so it could be dwelling on the past but at the same time happy it happened. This photo would be done on photoshop by using the magnetic lasor tool and cutting it out onto the mirror. Using the white sink and background gives it a clean fresh feel which could be a metaphor of his age and how he felt in the past.

For my shoot I am going to do something a bit different but I think this is a great base for this shoot. I am going to look at taking pictures of something which is a memory to someone such as a letter and take a picture of the person who's memory it is and on photoshop fade it in so it is clear that it looks like a memory and it's in the past fading away.
