In-between Moments
It’s not just the ‘big’ moments that are important to capture; the quiet, ‘in-between’ moments are just as important, too. Here are articles and tips by our This is Reportage photographers talking about this:
This Is How: ‘Enduring the Wedding Ceremony’ by Patrick Engel
We’re honoured to have the fantastic Patrick Engel on the site today, telling us all about his recent Reportage Award. It’s really interesting to hear his thoughts on choosing images to submit to awards, especially; congrats, Patrick!
This is Storytelling: ‘Life vs Dr Who’ by David Scholes
It’s an absolute pleasure today to have David Scholes on the site, taking us behind the scenes of his recent Reportage Story Award. Just the top 4% of submissions were awarded by our Collection One judges; to obtain a Reportage Story Award means the photographer has captured lots of different moments to an incredibly high standard, representing the very best storytelling in the business (which is always a massive goal for wedding photographers).
David shares fantastic insights into focusing on moments and feelings rather than technical things, framing and composition tips, shooting close and low, anticipation and layering, his OCF set up for the evening, and much more. It’s fascinating to hear in-depth analysis about so much from a wedding – thanks so much, David!
This Is How: ‘Man Vs Peacock’ by Matt Parry
In the twenty-fourth of our regular series of ‘This is How…’ we’re excited to welcome the fab Matt Parry to tell us all about this iconic capture of his. So much personality in this image! Great insights into how street photography has had a massive effect on his work (“…watching, waiting and capturing the ordinary…”), how speed and reaction are so important but how slowing down can be just as vital, composition, character, getting close and more…
This Is How: ‘Ringbearer in Washington DC’ by Bradley Hanson
In the eleventh of our regular series of ‘This Is How…’, US-based photographer Bradley Hanson tells us how he got this great image – and on film, no less!
This Is How: ‘Mirrored Moment’ by Jonny MP
In the eighth of our regular series of ‘This Is How…’, Surrey-based photographer Jonny MP, tells us how he got this brilliantly creative image.
