Artistic Photography: Transforming Concepts into Images

Artistic Photography: Transforming Concepts into Images

“Thank you for reaching the end of this course and for accompanying me here. I hope that now you dare to tell the most authentic thing about yourself through photography. Now we are going to do a brief review of the steps that I have followed to arrive at my final project. Concept I started working on my influences to find inspiration. Afterwards I have listened to myself through automatic writing. I have discovered what moves me at this moment. This has allowed me to find a concept, "Perception", the basis of what my photo session would be. In relation to my concept, I have gotten on the internet and I have nurtured it with images.

Shooting Then, to prepare the session, I have selected my models, my muses, and I have decided where my photo session will be and what materials and props I am going to bring to the shooting . I also analyzed the weather and light of the scene to decide the most suitable camera settings . Already in the session, I started photographing from my comfort zone, legs, back ... to warm up. I was always attentive that my models were comfortable (as much as possible), and I was building my photographs, I added the mirror element and made them interact with each other through reflections. Selection and final touches I dumped the images, made a backup copy and selected the ones that best fit the concept. In the end I kept the ones with the triangular mirror, the final selection had a close-up, a general shot and a mid-shot. Lastly, I did the finishing touches and tried resizing to see if they worked. And here are the results! Now it's your turn, share your final project with all of us by clicking on "Create your project". As I have done up here, remember to share both the final result of your photos and the steps that have led you to them. This has been my course. I can't wait to see your work! What has come out of you? When photographs are born from the depths of your gut, they have a special halo that makes them unique, right? See you on the forum! I hope to answer you as quickly as possible and, although it sometimes takes a little while, I will not leave any project unchecked. It makes me very happy to have helped you find your authenticity, I am glad that you are finally on the path of creating those images that would not exist if you were not in this world. See you soon!

“Final project The course has come to an end. Thank you very much for joining me here. Now it's your turn to get going and tell me what you feel with your photos. I can't wait to see your work. I remind you of everything you have done throughout this course. First you worked all your influences to find inspiration. Then you learned to listen to yourself and discover everything that moves you through automatic writing. This allowed you to find a concept, which will be the basis of the final project. In the second unit you learned to translate this into visual language through localization, th...”
