"Still Life Photography" by Ginnie Lodge

Still Life images have been around for centuries. A fresco found in the ruins of Pompeii depicts a still life of food items on a platter. Of course, ancient still life images were made with paint and brush. We’ll be talking about creating still life images with our cameras.

Ginnie will share the many elements that go into creating a still life photograph: composition, light, color, balance, etc. She will also talk about where to get inspiration and objects to include in the image, as well as how to process the image after the fact to add your own creative touch.

Still life is a genre of photography that can be done no matter what the weather! It allows the photographer to have control over the light, the subject, and the story being told.

Ginnie is a BPS member who loves to experiment behind the camera. She is always up for a challenge and loves to push herself to improve her photography.
