Photographers like Robbie Augspurger know just how to crack me up, and anyone else who has had the pleasure of perusing through his portfolio -- which now includes you. Although they may seem like photos taken from another era, especially the 70s, these are all current captures.
With a penchant for the quirky and bizarre, Robbie Augspurger gets his models of the moment to don vintage clothes and strike rather cheesy poses and then does some post production magic to create an overall retro effect. Fun and funny, his work is truly inspired.
From guns to geeky glasses and romantic montages, Robbie Augspurger's shows that he doesn't let anything stop him. Yet it's the general "Portrait Studio" aesthetic that gets to me every time.
