Featured Instagrammer: Bridget Murray Law

By

Bridget Murray Law (@birdettemurray on Instagram and @brainpsychmind on Twitter) has been a favorite of InstantDC for a long time. Her black and white photographs show striking dark silhouetted dreamscapes of the city. She creates a silence within the bustle of the city in each photo that is very hard to replicate. Some of our favorites are posted below. Enjoy!

Creator of @blackandwhitedc, Erin Higgins—aka @erin921—is as much a curator as gifted Instagram photographer. Not only does she document her frequent travels to New York City and beyond, but her shots of D.C. nooks and crannies offer fresh takes on the same old scenes, with an emphasis on design details and golden-hour, available lighting. Follow along on her Instagram feed and enjoy some of our favorites below.

If you’d like your Instagram feed to be considered for this weekly InstantDC-curated feature, please tag your Instagram photos #exposeddc or #instantdc. Show us what you’ve got!

Exposed Interview: Victoria Pickering

Fountains by Victoria Pickering

If you frequent downtown, take public transportation, participate in cultural events, or just go about your everyday life in D.C., you might find yourself in one of Victoria Pickering’s photographs.

Victoria’s work has been featured in the Exposed DC Photography Show twice (2013 and 2014), with work that provides a unique perspective of the urban environment and how people fill the city and its spaces.

Because she posts her images online under a creative commons license, Victoria’s work has been featured on numerous websites, which has subsequently led to commercial work that she wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. We asked Victoria a few questions about her love for photography.
