WM-555: Differences in Photographic and Public...

2026/02/02

Why is it that we are driven to create art? Of course, there are hundreds, thousands, probably millions of reasons to create art – anything from personal motivations to causes that the artist supports or statements that need to be made. But there is one broad umbrella that most, if not all art falls under, I think. At its heart, art is made so that it can be enjoyed by others. Now, there is a problem with that, the enjoyment of others. And that problem is that we don't always make that connection

WM-554: Is Structure Necessary for Creativity? |...

2026/01/29

When you think of creativity, it feels like it should be something random and spontaneous, something that is born out of a moment's inspiration. And, there are times when random creativity leads to groundbreaking art. I would argue, however, that the majority of creativity comes not from spontaneity, but from structure. You see, a lack of structure leads to things like uncertainty, wasted time and other issues that are detrimental to productivity. Here's a brief list of the problems and questions

WM-553: Gertrude Käsebier's Tender Lens | Photography...

2026/01/27

In the world of early American photography, few names carry the elegance and influence of Gertrude Käsebier (1852–1934). She is often hailed as one of the first American photographers to elevate portraiture to an art form. Her best-known works, particularly images of mothers and children, embody a tenderness and depth that was revolutionary for her time. Through her lens, she captured the emotional bond between her subjects with unique sensitivity, helping to pave the way for what would later be

2026/01/24

Photography has this rare ability to tell a story, to let us glimpse into worlds we might otherwise never see. And few photographers did that quite like Lewis W. Hine. For anyone who loves photography, Hine's work is a testament to how powerful an image can be. He wasn't just taking pictures; he was documenting history, sparking reform, and, most importantly, giving a voice to people who were often invisible in society. His images of immigrants, child laborers, and industrial workers helped change

WM-551: What You Can Learn from Other Art Forms |...

2026/01/21

When it comes to learning more about photography, the common wisdom is not only to take more photographs but also to read about photography, to take photography classes and workshops, and to speak with other photographers. And all of these things are great ways to learn—necessary, in fact. But there's a whole other world of art out there, some art forms far older than photography, and they each have their own wealth of knowledge that we can draw from to build our own skills. So let's take a look at

Photography can fill every corner of your life if you let it. Even when you are not shooting, you are thinking about shooting. You are noticing light in a window, framing scenes in your head, planning locations, sorting gear, editing, posting, and taking in other people's work. If photography is more than a casual hobby for you, it has a way of quietly becoming part of how you move through the day. For some people, it is also a job, which adds deadlines, client expectations, and the pressure to keep

I have been noticing something more and more, and I do not think it is just me. People who once cared a lot about photography are walking away from it. Not just beginners who bought a camera, tried it for a month, and got bored. I mean, people who used to go out on purpose to shoot. People who used to talk about photos, plan trips around photos, and spend real time learning and improving. Now the camera sits. The bag stays closed. Months go by, and they do not miss it the way they thought they

My brain does this thing where photography and sound keep borrowing ideas from each other. I will be setting up a shot, thinking about light and shadow, and suddenly I am thinking about microphones. Or I will be setting up a mic, and I start thinking about lenses. Both are about choosing what you want and choosing what you do not want. With a camera, you make decisions that shape what the viewer sees. You pick a lens. You choose an angle. You decide what is sharp and what is soft. You decide what

WM-547: The Vivid Legacy of Sergei Prokudin-Gorsky |...

Photography Clips ·

2026/01/07

When we look at old photographs, we tend to expect them to be in black and white. We expect the past to feel distant, muted, and quiet, as if history were always supposed to be sepia-toned and far away. Sergei Prokudin-Gorsky did not accept that. He wanted people to see the world as it actually looked. Not in our time, but in his. Not as a ghost of history, but as something alive with color...

2026/01/05

Photography looks ordinary now. A phone comes out, a tap happens, and an image appears. That ease can make photography seem like a simple act of collecting proof that something took place. Yet the real power of photography has never been about evidence alone. It has always been about attention, time, and meaning. A photograph can be a record, but it can also be a decision about what deserves to be noticed. It can be a way of saying, "This mattered to me," even when the subject is small, quiet, or

WM-545: Improve Your Skills with a Photo-A-Day...

2025/12/17

The common advice for new and aspiring photographers is to take as many photographs as you possibly can – every day of the week if possible. For many, that means starting on a photo-a-day or 365 project. This is terrific advice, but I don't necessarily think it is limited to beginners. Even professionals can benefit from something like a photo-a-day project. Especially professionals, since I think the tendency to get involved in the business side of photography means we don't always make time to

Here's something I've mentioned before, and I believe that I've spoken of it in terms of how organization and trip planning is a good thing. Because that is the truth—none of us wants to spend a lot of money and time on a trip only to come home with no photographs to show for it. This time around, however, I want to argue the opposite. Conflicting opinions, I know, but as with everything, I believe that there is a balance to strike. Sometimes planning out your photographic excursions down to the

WM-543: Four Ways to Create a Powerful Portfolio |...

Ansel Adams said, "There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept." As photographers, this is our greatest struggle — to produce images with a meaning that is immediately evident and warrants a deeper examination of the subject material. So how do we produce images like this? One way to create a powerful collection — a meaningful portfolio — is to seriously zero in on your concepts. Take your subject material and distill it until only the most resonating elements stand out. However,

WM-540: Connecting Instead of Observing | Photography...

2025/12/04

Photographers like to think of themselves as observers. We stand back, we watch, we wait for something interesting to happen. But observation is only half the story. The real heart of photography often comes from connection, not distance. Today, we're going to talk about what it means to move from observing your subjects to truly connecting with them. As photographers, it's easy to slip into the mindset of simply watching the world. We look for things to photograph, we wait for the right moment, and
