The Power of Perspective in Photography

 The power of photography is a very complex and important concept – one that can be incredibly helpful through work and life. It also means different things to different people, as we’ve been revealing throughout this webinar. It’s our view that the power of photography has extraordinary potential and is underutilized in today's ever changing world. To best grow and learn as a photographer or someone who utilizes photography; it can be incredibly useful to get a broad and pragmatic perspective of what has come before. There’s a saying by a former teacher I had, I can’t teach you anything you can’t learn on your own. What I can do is save you time.This knowledge can help immensely. How you shoot a scene determines what kind of story you want to tell and what kind of mood you want viewers to feel when they look at a photo. The power of perspective is beyond the consideration of your photography subjects; it is about the angle of your camera, your proximity to the subjects and what you include in the frame that plays an important role in your final image. Every single day millions of people document aspects of their lives important or mundane  onto social media sites like Instagram. Photography makes it possible to instantly capture moments of your life forever.

The point of view of photographing

The point of view isn’t just determined by our physical surroundings. It’s also the creative stance you take when you shoot. Developing your own point of view means looking at the world through different lenses — maybe literally, and certainly figuratively. Investigate the world, think about what you find beautiful, and don’t allow convention to dictate an answer. Point of view in photography refers to the angle or place from which you shoot. That encompasses more than you might imagine — there may be as many photographic points of view as there are moments to capture. We can point our cameras up or down, and we can place them on the ground or from above. Try to see some other points of view as much as possible and creating a unique style means going outside of the norm and taking some risks... Make it a habit not to settle for your eye level as the only shot you take.  Look for ways to get high, or a lower angle that can really change perspective for you.  The more you force yourself to do this kind of exercise, the easier it will become for you to imagine these points of view before you even put your camera to your eye.

Fashion  photography

Fashion photography is a really fun thing and make by professional photographer, there is many photographers in this world the status of the fashion photographer is changing. Also where once their worth was measured by the campaigns they booked, Fashion photography has grown with the explosion of magazine culture. It plays an ever-increasing role in exploring ideas about society I think it’s taking photos solely for fashion purposes whether it’s for a magazine, personal add or whatever. Fashion photography is more than a photo, when done successfully it embodies the whole fashion atmosphere of the moment and portraits the mood of the time in the best way. Good fashion photography is more like a short film; it needs an atmosphere and a dream, a concept that evolves originality and good co-ordination between a whole team of creative people. Plus there are too much money involved in any editorial level fashion shoot, those are certainly the most expensive pages of a magazine hence some 'cheap' mages style etc., recently prefer still-life shots instead of real editorials, saves them a huge amount of money, but the effect is certainly not as communicating as a real fashion editorial) another way of skipping money, is shooting celebrities, they certainly are willing to work for free, while models charge quite a sum.

Photograph


I choose that subject because, since I was a young age I've always loved  taking  photo-shoot  because in my mind I always tell myself that maybe when I get older I can be a Model and I  will be able to show my friends and my future kids what  I used  to do and how I looked  in  the past .   it might be   interested, because it really inspire  me and by watching  several TV Show like America's next Top Model and some commercials , It push me to the point where I can tell myself that it's not a bad thing. I think it's a good career for people because they can have the opportunity to show their true skin and their outside beauty, so I am happy that I'm going to talk about how Photograph have a huge impact in humanity’s life because some people use that as a memory, it’s also much better to use a normal photograph camera than a smart phone camera. And the reasoning   being that running around taking photos for the newspaper of everything from kids in the park to deadly accidents, some people found it to be positive to give back to the community members a better chance or occasion.


 Photograpgh Vanity Fair
(Caitlyn Jenner)

Vanity Fair is a magazine of popular culture, fashion and current affairs published by Conde Nast. Conde Nast is the  owner who has been published this magazine  since 1983 that created a historic moment. Vanity Fair  also make cover  for many transgender . I will talk about Caitlyn Jenner as an example of what she improved  by showing her true self  her appearance on Vanity Fair  the fashion industry as she is the first openly transgender woman to feature on the cover of the fashion magazine. I think it is really a great achievement to create a positive visual statement printed by a world-recognized publication, while bringing aware of the issues and hardships that transgender people face. This may just be the starting signs of the fashion industry finally realizing that the world is a lot more diverse than they thought it was, and that we can see more of the cross-section of humanity. It prove that Vanity Fair is one of the biggest Fashion Photograph in the world ,They filled their own names in the blank and I believe these kind of  Vanity Fair covers will help other trans to be more confident with  themselves. It’s also a Still Life Fashion is a kind of fashion photography whereas  clothes, footwear, jewelry, head pieces, and other fashion accessories are featured with the absence of a live model.
