For photographers and painters, this presentation will explore how to compose pictures with people in them that draw the viewer in, that evoke emotion, that tell a story.
Posed portraits, environmental portraits, street portraiture, and travel photographs will all be included in the discussion. We will review many of the core tenets of composition as well as how to capture the right gestures, background, expressions, lighting, perspective, camera settings, and more.
Ray will share ideas which come from the world of art and composition, evolutionary and photographic psychology, for creating more impactful and memorable pictures. For each picture we’ll share thoughts on how and why they resonate with the participants.
