Move to Capture Different Perspectives

Photographers shouldn’t stand still in one position 🤔 No matter what you are photographing, whether it's your animals, grand landscapes, kiddos, or the details of a beautiful flower, don't forget to move!⁠ ⁠ I had an assignment in school where I had to create 100 different images while standing in one spot without moving more than a few inches from that original location. It sounds easy, but it was not. ⁠ ⁠ I picked my spot and the workout began. I was stretching to my highest tiptoes, rolling around in muddy wet leaves in a gutter, and reaching for that perfect angle with the best light.⁠ ⁠ When photographing any subject, it is important to think about all of the ways YOU as the photographer can move and not just how your subject can move.⁠ ⁠ It will change your style of photography, your understanding of your subject, teach you more about lighting, and so much more!⁠ ⁠ I challenge you to try the assignment I talked about above and see how creative you can be in capturing 100 different images while standing in one spot! Post your favorite shot from the challenge and tag me in it!⁠ ⁠ Have you ever been sore from photographing something?⁠
