# Quietly Intimate Captures Ward Robinson Photographs Glamorously Candid Moments By Meghan Young | Published 2011-05-26 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ward-robinson References: [whitezine](http://www.whitezine.com/en/photography/ward-robinson.html) & [wardrobinsonphoto](http://www.wardrobinsonphoto.com/) I love how Ward Robinson has managed to capture quietly [intimate moments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eau-intimite) without losing out on the glamor of [fashion photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles). In addition, he also managed to imbue a subtle sense of sexiness without going overboard. His work seems to be based on a striking a fine balance between all of these important aspects. Ward Robinson is based in Los Angeles. It's possible that he has taken some detailed notes from fellow photographer and friend Carlos [Nunez](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bathed-in-blood) for his conceptual images. Their styles in lighting, composition and poses are pretty similar, yet there is something a little more tame and romantic about Ward Robinson's work. I especially like the [depth-of-field](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) present in each of Ward Robinson's photos. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 97% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% 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 - **Quietly Intimate Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a technology or technique that enhances the capture of intimate moments in photography without losing the glamor. - **Balancing Glamour and Subtlety in Fashion Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create new approaches to fashion photography that strike a fine balance between glamor, subtlety, and a sense of sexiness. - **Depth-of-field Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Invent tools or techniques that allow for enhanced depth-of-field effect in photography, adding visual impact to captured moments. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop new technologies or methods to capture fashion moments that are quietly intimate while retaining a sense of glamour and style. - **Photography Equipment Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Manufacture innovative photography equipment that enables photographers to easily achieve the desired balance between glamor, subtlety, and sexiness in their images. - **Art Galleries:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Curate exhibitions focusing on photography that explores the interplay of glamor, subtlety, and intimacy, offering a fresh perspective to art enthusiasts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Refined Vintage Militaristic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Dreamy Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection.md) - [British Youth-Culture Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-and-away.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Photography Project Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1.md) - [Understated Luxury Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coofandy.md) - [Cinematic Thriller-Inspired Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jw-anderson-fw-2024.md) - [Revived Modular Photo Booths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frames-booth.md)
