Finding and Developing Photographic Style

Developing your imagery to possess its own idiom, resonating with your artistic voice, is daunting and difficult. The highly crafted works by Joel-Peter Witkin, perfect landscapes of Ansel Adams, snippets of time expertly caught by Henri Cartier-Bresson: each embodies a distinctive style. David will elaborate on how to achieve a unique style and cultivate your photographic voice.
