Composition in Photography

Presented by The Image Flow at The Image Flow (Miller Ave, Mill Valley)

Photographers, and all visual artists, strive to create powerful images and compositions that communicate ideas and feelings to viewers.

When we create or analyze photographs it is sometimes difficult for us to explain why one image speaks out to us while we can simply glance at another and forget about it moments later.

In this workshop with Leanne Hansen, we will explore and practice the principles of visual elements of design in our photography so that we are prepared for our next “great shot”.

Our classroom discussions will center around visual design elements of photography and the ways that artists apply design principles to create memorable images.

We will look closely at historical and contemporary photography, painting, and drawing to understand how visual artists plan for the successful elements of design within a frame.

In field sessions, we will apply the ideas we have learned as we frame pictures in natural and urban settings.

Thoughtful print critiques in the studio will round out our study and help students to see new possibilities for their photography practice.
