What separates a good photograph from a great one? It isn’t technical skill, the quality of the camera, or proficiency in Photoshop. It’s the vision behind the image -— and how effectively the photographer communicates that vision.
In this talk, I’ll take a step back to focus on why we make photographs. What is the vision behind our work and the message we want each image to convey? How do we design a photograph to communicate that vision through our choice of subject, composition, and light? What emotions or mood are we trying to evoke and how do we achieve that?
Ultimately, this talk is about creating impactful, meaningful images that resonate with viewers, not just photographs that are sharp and well-exposed.
