Call & Response

The Second Call: Pinochio — Jessica

Confession time: for as long as I have been interested in making photographs that tell stories, I have actually never (until this week) googled the term to see what others had already written about the topic. In some ways I think I always thought, “next time I’ll find a better story angle.” And then next time never really came, since for the most part I shoot from the hip — capturing what ever is playing out in front of me. But I do want to be more intentional about it.

The most helpful bit I found was about putting more people in the frame in order to introduce “relationship.”

When telling a story through a single image think about including more than one person in the shot – when you do this you introduce ‘relationship’ into a photo which will conjure up all types of thoughts in the viewers of your shots.
