“The Sessions: Stop Looking, Start Seeing - The Science of Street Photography
This session covers an introduction to the theory and practice of street photography, before digging deep into composition, “working a scene” and “owning” your frame, as well applying more advanced principles of visual unity to create interesting images that go beyond quick snaps of people in typical city street scenes.
Polly will provide a theoretical framework via a keynote session, before leading a street shooting trip to a quintessential British seaside town, where you’ll be set two mini briefs to work to, with feedback, critique and peer review.”
