Aussie photographer takes wedding photos through the eyes of guests. Self-taught photographer Peter Adams-Shawn is wowing us this week with an incredible method called ‘Eyescapes’. Gone are the traditional wedding photos in his portfolio. For ‘Eyescapes’ Adams-Shawn captures the reflections in the eyes of guests.

There’s no trickery involved in his work, either — he simply needs to get as close as possible to wedding guests to be able to see a beautiful reflection in their eyes. ‘I did my first eyescape back in 2011. It was then not until 2014 that I got to do the second one. Something clicked as to how I could take them. Now I do them pretty much every wedding’, Adams-Shawn told A Plus.

Recalled correctly. But not crazy about the idea of a close up eye picture with a reflection of me.
Neat, but not something I'd really want a photo of for myself.

Aren't you going to have to be worrying about that soon.. if I recall what I think I recall as being recalled correctly.
That type of photo can look quite good in black and white. And I got the knowledge to make photos like that in the UK some 40 years ago.
 
Eye think it's a cool concept. I can just imagine drunk party guests behind the photographer trying to recreate the same photo with their smartphones though.
 
What is more fun is to get folk to smoke them funny ciggies or joints. Then try to find an eyeball that isn't all glazed over, or almost shut.
