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 How: ‘Mirrored Feelings’ by Marnix de Stigter
Fantastic to have the brilliant Marnix de Stigter on the site today, telling us all about how he captured his recent Reportage Award from our most recent Collection, Collection Seven. Really great tips on observation, patience, composition and more…thanks, Marnix!
This Is How: ‘Secret Moment’ by Martin Hecht
Super to have Martin Hecht with us today, as he takes us behind the scenes of this fab bridal prep capture. Really interesting to hear how his close bond with the bride and her family enabled him to get the shot, how the composition came about, and more…thanks, Martin!

Delighted to have the fab Steven Herrschaft on the site today, as he explains all about how he captured this Reportage Award-winning shot from back in Collection Four.

Honoured to have the fantastic Shaunte’ Dittmar with us today (who was one of our judges for Collection Four), as she explains all about her thought process and how she captured this striking image.

This Is How: ‘The Limbo Challenge’ by Martin Makowski
Delighted to have Martin Makowski with us today, taking us behind the scenes of his recent Reportage Award from Collection Five.
