Telling
“Storytelling is the interactive art of using words, images, and actions to reveal the elements of a story while encouraging the listener/viewers imagination.”
We find storytelling in so many ways, from fine artwork done hundreds of years ago, to some of the most popular songs on the radio. We find it everywhere...from on the big screen, to the children’s section in the bookstore. It’s the art of reliving a memory or even living something that never really happened. It's one of the ways we connect both with the people closest to us and those we’ve never even met before. It’s said that a photo is worth a thousand words, but what about the moments that words can’t describe?
It is much easier to have an experience than stand in front of the camera and smile! Honestly, a photoshoot is a great way to have a date night and have images that capture your relationship!
For any type of shoot, let's start with something you love to do or even a place you love to be! We'll set the scene around what you love and take it from there!!
“The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you.”
Jalaluddin Rumi
So how do you plan a photo shoot and not try for the photos! Haha, sounds like a very contradicting statement!!
THE BEST PHOTOS ARE THE ONES YOU DIDN'T TRY FOR!
Before we get started you should answer these questions. What do you guys like to do together, where do you guys like to be together, what makes you laugh, do you have those? There you go, you have the beginning of something special! If you've ever preformed in the musical arts, you know that they tell you to play with feeling! If you've ever read a good book and enjoyed it, that was probable because you connected with the story! The key to give meaning and have meaning behind the purpose!
