Creativity as a Photographer

The Importance of Being Creative as a Photographer

Being creative as a photographer is of utmost importance for several reasons. It not only allows you to express your unique vision and artistic voice but also helps you stand out in a saturated field. Here are some key reasons why creativity is vital for photographers:

It allows you to capture ordinary subjects or scenes in extraordinary ways, presenting them in a fresh and engaging manner.

Storytelling Through Photography- Personal Family Photography

You are storytelling in this work-Family Photographer in South Jersey

You have one story and then something happens and it changes you.. your perspective and I believe this is where I am now. My perspective has changed recently.

This is the stage where you start to have an understanding and become a master of some sort of training of your eye.Now, finally telling my story, my eye and the story of the subjects that I am capturing... THE STORY through the photographs we create.

I urge anyone in photography to be involved in groups when you start out a bit. What I mean by groups, is Facebook groups catered to professionals/amateurs. Use this valuable info in these groups to hone the technical basics.
