Bill Edwards is a photographer known for his casual and relaxed style that features women in sexually provocative poses. He focuses on body art like tattoos and piercings. Many of his photos have a fantasy element and movement. Edwards typically shoots plain backgrounds in the studio to highlight colors and uses editing to make tattoos and piercings stand out. While keeping things simple, the document suggests he could add more hand movements and poses to increase motion in his photos.

3. Bill Edwards adopts a creative and back to nature kind of technique which
make his photographs so popular they adopt a casual and relaxed manner
which is usually quite rare; he also shoots women a lot in sexually provocative
actions he tries to create a fantasy element within the majority of his pictures.
Personally I think body art ( tattoos and piercings )are the main focus of his
pictures he poses in a few of them himself most are topless and a lot of the
pictures aren’t just plain pictures a lot of them have movement in.
Composition
A lot of the photographs are shot in a plain studio bill Edwards tries to use plain
backgrounds as to accentuate the colours worn by the people being shot in the
photo they also used editing techniques to either warm up or cool the skin colour so
that the tattoos and piercings really stand out and look more detailed
Most of the pictures are shot directly at the body he sometimes uses just portrait from
the shoulders up or he chooses a full body image
Techniques used
Think shutter speeds, rule of thirds & depth of field
Strengths & Weaknesses

4. I’m like the way he uses eccentric body art and amateur photography to make his
pictures look more like on a phone I like the simple ideas he keeps everything simple
however I think he could use more motion in his picture like some hand movements or
just different poses
