New video on my tubes: "Every Photo Is a Lie (And Why That Makes It Art)" https://youtu.be/a7wlT4gzfIo
Reality and honesty are virtues we think of when it comes to photography, but how many of us see the camera as a tool of art more than documentary?
In this essay I explore a handful of ideas from Susan Sontag's book "On Photography" and the difference between telling the truth and telling stories. Ultimately, photography is always art, so why not embrace the craft of visual storytelling and make your photography even stronger.
