Telling your Story
“Telling your Story” – that’s probably intrinsically imprinted in any creative photographer’s mind and eye when he takes a picture – and even more so when he edits it and the countless possibilities pull at his imaginative muscles inviting to dance with light and shadow, colors and shapes, depth and lightness and endless other options.
Fascinating! Just as I was carried away by what I ‘saw’ on this particular picture… and I remember the shadows creeping towards me as it was getting dark and I was here all alone…
Telling your Story
However, when producing for Stock Photography we have to change the hat and “Telling your Story” becomes secondary from our perspective.
Our first objective is to have a technically correct high quality image – so that whoever sees that picture can recognize something within it that will allow him to be telling his story – not our’s.
I would think that the better one gets, the more a picture we shoot for Stock Footage has both: high quality and high story potential. Potential!
When producing for commercial purposes – like for Photo Media Stock -, it is important to know which hat one wears.
