# Nose-Picking Portraits Coffee and Photo Photography Captures Quirky Characters By Amelia Roblin | Published 2010-12-17 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-and-photo References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/36693/) & [quentindemeuter.eu](http://quentindemeuter.eu/photo/portfolio/) Quentin De Meuter is a budding Belgian artist with a [portrait portfolio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portraius) blog called Coffee and Photo. After acquiring his [Canon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/never-break-your-flow) 450D camera in mid-2009, he has been exploring his playful personal style with the help of mischievously animated models. Learning quite quickly, the man behind Coffee and Photo produces some genuinely sharp images with [close-cut cropping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-portraits) and incredible definition. Certainly not lacking spirit on either side of the lens, the photography of Quentin will continue to gain a following if the artist keeps up his snapshot studies. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Quirky Portraiture:** Opportunity to disrupt the traditional portraiture market by offering unique and playful portrait styles. - **Animated Models:** Potential to innovate in the modeling industry by incorporating mischievous and animated models for photoshoots. - **Snapshot Studies:** Disruptive potential in the photography education industry by offering personalized snapshot study courses. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Photography:** Potential for disruptive innovation in the art and photography industry by introducing new and playful portrait styles. - **Modeling and Fashion:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the modeling industry by incorporating mischievous and animated models for photoshoots. - **Education and Training:** Disruptive potential in the photography education industry by offering personalized snapshot study courses. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stunning Origami Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-portaits.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md) - [Robotic Portrait Sketches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pankraz-piktograph.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [Color-In Photo Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toy-camera-concept.md) - [Stylized Portrait Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-to-all.md) - [Playful Coffee-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/andrew-rae.md) - [Cafe Budget Retro Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-retro-camera.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md)
