Did you know there are two types of Still Life Photography?
Most of us have seen paintings or photographs of inanimate objects like an arrangement of fruit on a table or a vase of flowers. This type of arranged objects in an image would qualify as “Created Still Life”. We could also think of this as constructed, something the artist or photographer arranged with a visual purpose in mind.
In this seminar Tamron Tech Rep Jeff Allen will walk you through an introduction into the key elements of composition, as they relate to another type of still life photography, called “Found Still Life”. Found still life images are not created or constructed, they can be a random collection of things or a single object, photographed just as they are; undisturbed by the photographer. This can be a large object like a rusty old car in a field, or smaller objects like a leaf laying in the dirt, or even a colorful display at the local farmers market. By the end of this seminar, we hope you will be inspired to see everyday objects within their natural environment from a different perspective.
