F-Stops & Photo Bytes – Emotional Language

Photography is a complexed emotional language.

Photography, when at its best, is a powerful language which speaks to our emotions. If you have ever seen Nick Ut’s photograph of a crying Vietnamese girl whose clothes have been burnt away by napalm you will understand the power photography has to evoke our emotions. It allows us to tell our story and show others our frame of reference of the world around us. Whether it is good or bad.

Our images can express joy and sorrow, wonder, sympathy and even anger. Every human emotion can find a place in photography. 

F-Stops & Photo Bytes – Our Legacy

Our History & Legacy

Photographs serve as a chronicle of our lives; where we’ve been, what we’ve done, who we were. They tell the story that we don’t always speak.

Photographs matter because they freeze moments of our lives which pass unremarkably and which seem to have little importance to us at the time. The significance, however, may be for others who search to know the person we once were or the places we once knew. They can be small pieces of a jigsaw that complete the larger picture. Photos are the legacy we leave behind for our children; offering a way to share our stories with generations to come.
