New Alphanaut Publicity Photos by William Thoren

Last weekend I had publicity photos taken by my friend William Thoren to tie in with the "Out of Orbit" album art direction. I worked with Will over a year ago to bring to life my ideas for "The Lunar Age" EP, "Spontaneity" and "The Innocence of Time" singles and knew he'd come up with some great images again. Included in this post are a handful of the photos I selected.

The idea was to work inside an abandoned water tower near his house, playing with the natural light beaming through rusted out holes in it's structure. We accented the sun light with a handful of remote strobes and played around with the idea of incorporating blurred motion with parts of my body while keeping others still. What you are seeing was all done in camera with no PhotoShop enhancement. Once again wanted to play around with being barefoot which was a potential hazard as there was glass and debris everywhere.

I'm really pleased with how the images turned out. William is a fantastic young photographer with a great imagination and unique use of light. You can check out his work at www.williamthoren.com
