In the photo world it is undeniable: images are made of emotions. After all of the session planning is said and done and the photographs are made, if the images lack strong emotion they fall flat.

Effective editorial and lifestyle images are born from small grains of inspiration and then raised on the decisions the artists makes in creating them. Each step in the process should solidify the developing mood of the image. This class teaches photographers how to create influential images that viewers connect to on an emotional level.

Emotions in photographs can range from vibrant happiness to intimate stillness, but regardless, these emotions have to be evident. More often than not, when viewing pictures people connect to something they long for- they see something that resonates with them and they crave more of it. As long as photographers  continue to deliver that emotion they will always prosper.

This class starts with how to find bits of inspiration and goes through each step necessary to create a strong set of images and to get them published.
