What is Fine Art Photography?
It can be tricky to put your finger on a fine art photography definition. For instance, there’s often a fine line between commercial photography and photography art. There are also conflicting definitions on how to do fine art photography that make it even harder to nail down what constitutes a fine art photo. But let’s give it a shot.
It Starts With a Vision
One fine art photography definition: fine art photography involves bringing a vision to life. It involves creating something that previously only lived in your mind, as opposed to simply capturing what you see in an artistic way. It’s a way to express your emotions and the way you see the world—and to share it with others.
Tonight we have one of our regular presenters , Mark Kelly, who will give us many examples of before and after an image is taken and presented.
The course is fully booked but a second course is possible. Please contact the Outings Coordinator if you are interested in a second course.
