We love creative photography. It’s fun to look at and allows you to forget about the world’s troubles. Imagery doesn’t always have to have a deeper meaning, at least for the consumer. Often it can just be an enjoyable way to pass the time. And the photographers in this piece, along with their creative work, ensure that we forget time exists.
Dolly Ave Offers Creative Photography for Ad Campaigns
By the time she was 22, Dolly Ave was already working in L.A. photographing ads for major brands. Organizations like Adidas, Nike, and Reebok were filling up her resume. And it’s no surprise: her work ticks so many boxes. Art, action, landscape, and portraiture all fall under the umbrella of her creative photography.
Josephine Cardin’s Creative Photography Is Inspired by Music
Music is a powerful drug. It’s the soundtrack to many of our human experiences. Josephine Carin created her Comfort in Chaos series with music and other human experiences at the heart of it. When asked where her inspiration came from, she told us, “It was, as many of my projects are, inspired by music. In this case the song St. Jude by Florence + The Machine. I’m currently working on an ongoing project that explores the connection between music and art.”

Fabian Oefner Brings Colors to Life
Swiss photographer Fabian Oefner uses art, photography, and science to create his work. He describes himself as a “curious investigator.” He clearly likes to push the boundaries with his creative photography. The results? Beautiful, gripping imagery that makes you want to know more!
In his series Dancing Colors, Oefner spent a lot of time in the experimentation room. He told us:
“I started by putting different grains on the speaker, rice, millet or sand and looked at the way they react to the sound waves. Eventually I came up with the idea of using salt, as it proved to be just right in terms of weight/height of bouncing off the surface of the speaker.”
He then added pigments to salt in order to create color within his scene. Remarkable work!
Elena Efremova Blends Cats and Coffee!
Elena Efremova took two rather mundane subjects and turned them into one compelling piece of creative photography. For Efremova, these quirky images carry a deeper meaning. She told us, “I sense my coffee cats not as simple animals but as guardian spirits of these places and coffee drinks in general.” Whether you get that same feeling or not, there’s no denying this is really cool work.
