看透了都市生活的營營役役及急速步調，攝影師趙祟富以配上顏色及形態的一縷青煙締造屬於他個人的烏托邦。青煙之輕柔及無重性質被描畫成為逃脫生活壓力及物質世界的橋樑。靈感取自他個人一批扣人心弦的雲上照，趙祟富以迷幻色彩建構一個極樂的夢想國度，這些美麗的意象也許可助我們超脫無情的現實世界。

趙祟富憑著對攝影的著迷及對捕捉美感的敏銳觸角, 自2006年起報讀設計及攝影的課程, 學習啟發了他對人像攝影的濃厚興趣, 因而開始以業餘性質參與婚禮攝影的工作。在種種攝影範疇裡, 他尤其擅長燈光控制及相片後製技術, 其作品往往予人創新的意味及跨越視覺藝術的境界。趙祟富將會繼續完善其攝影技術及藝術創作, 並致力培養自己成為一流的攝影師。

Dreamer

To escape from the huzzle and buzzle of the city life and the fast pace of it, photographer Kevin Chiu creates his own utopia by adding forms and colors to smoke. In view of its lightness in nature, smoke is expressed in a way to depict the freedom from stress and materiality. Inspired by his own haunting photos of clouds, Kevin visualizes his dream in a novel and imaginative way which presents an existence in a state of bliss or enlightenment. These beautiful imageries perhaps are the idealistic alternative to our relentless reality.

With an obsession in photography and a keen eye on nature’s beauties, Kevin has been taking up courses on design and photography since 2006. And with his growing interest and specific training on taking portrait photos, he soon was hired for freelance wedding photo jobs. He has unusual skills on lighting and photo retouching which make his photos a piece of visual art themselves. His works are often credited with novelty and an ability to capture impressive moments. In future, Kevin will continue striving for further refining his skills and make himself a first-rate photographer.
