Rush Varela Photography
From fashion campaigns, editorial assignments, entertainment portraiture, to just about the most uncanny of subjects, Rush never shies away from making the best images possible. His ability to bridge the subject to the settings on hand and give the image narrative is what sets him apart from his peers. To further refine his visual sensibilities he graduated from Art Center College of Design, in Pasadena California, where he received professional insights from industry leaders such as Jeff Sedlik and Ann Cutting, further enriching his growth and his ability to perform at a professional level.
Professionalism, creativity and a great experience is what Rush brings to all of his photoshoots.
BIO
Graduate of Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, CA., with a BFA in photography.
Rush’s earliest visual influence came from the theatre through his experience at Hollywood High School’s Performing Arts Center. The visual language conveyed through theatrical lighting and bold colors influence his aesthetic sensibilities to this day, as the world opens up in a great performance from which to draw inspiration.
Based in Los Angeles, Rush will travel anywhere in the world for the love of making the best images possible.
PHOTOGRAPHER’S NOTE:
In my photographs I base everything on reality, no matter how sensational. The inspiration often comes from my observations as I walk about downtown streets, eavesdrop on cafe conversation, or read into the photographs that accompany the latest news headlines. I perceive myself as an observer to life’s events, taking mental notes and more than often, using my cellphone’s camera when compelled to freeze a slice of life that can be a catalyst for a present or future project.
Working on location is most exciting to me as it opens up a great visual dialogue that often results in capturing something wondrously unexpected; in addition to the set about assignment goals.
