6. Andrew Brooks
I Like Andrew Brook’s style as it’s outside and
in the nature. I also like how the picture is very
well lit and colorful. In my work I would like
add style by taking photos outside and exposing
light in pictures.

7. Peter Lik
I Like Peter Lik style as it’s very colorful and the photos
which are being taken are of nature. Also, the picture looks
edited with extra color which adds effect to the image. I will
add it to my style by editing it in Photoshop.

8. Martin Parr
I like Martin Parr style of Photography as it’s very colorful and
British. Also, I like how the picture is of nature and the image is
very well lit. If I could adapt it to my style I would edit it in
Photoshop.
