Different Perspectives
One of the main ways we can make our imagery really stand out and be impactful, is by capturing moments from different perspectives and angles – showing people views of the world that they don’t normally see in day-to-day life. Here are tips and techniques by our members that specifically talk about this:

This is a really in-depth piece – thanks so much Patrick! – with lots of insights into things such as reportage details, colour, composition, the power of cropping, contrast, capturing the dancefloor, the first dance, shooting close, visual ‘call backs’, observation, context, and more….

Kicking off the renaissance today, we have the brilliant Kristof Claeys, telling us exactly how he captured this Reportage Award of his. Kristof was ranked 11th in the World here on TiR for 2020, and 16th in the World over on our sister-site for documentary family photography, This is Reportage: Family.
