Engage your viewer through well-crafted compositions. Control what they focus on and leave an enduring impression.
We'll explore
Composition, simply put, is the structure of your image—the way the elements relate to one another inside the frame. What you put in is as important as what you leave out. How you compose your images is what constitutes your unique voice.
While you might already intuitively consider composition, it’s important to understand, and go beyond, the basic rules so you have better control over the impact of your images.
Composition rules such as rule of thirds, depth of field and leading lines are a part of most photographers’ toolkits. In this workshop, we’ll go beyond these to explore additional compositional tools to enhance your photography practice and help you tell more compelling stories.
Composition Roulette is composed of six random composition rules paired with a specific story prompt. New prompts are reveled after each completed challenge. Every challenge is unique and surprising!
