Woodland Whispers with Charlotte Bellamy
THIS PROVIDES ACCESS TO THE RECORDED TALK ONLY - IT DOES NOT PERMIT DOWNLOADS. YOU HAVE FOUR WEEKS TO WATCH THIS PRESENTATION.
I'm really looking forward to this brand new talk from Charlotte! We all know she is such a wonderful person, having been a supporter of Camversation for years - including running our Amsterdam meet up for us :)
In this webinar, Charlotte will explore how her initial ideas for a project have eventually resulted in the publication of a book. If you have ever thought about working on a longer larger project, or even self- publishing, Charlotte will share the whole process step by step, from the initial conception of the idea, through how she created and curated the images to the final choice for the project. Interestingly her project embraces several different photographic techniques, but these are all pulled together by a strong concept. During the project, Charlotte worked with a mentor, editors, a designer and printer to realise the end result, and will explain how this team approach worked. This webinar will include lots of valuable information and plenty of beautiful images.
This talk will be recorded and available for four weeks.
About Charlotte:
Charlotte Bellamy’s creative style of photography is inspired by the environment in which she lives. She takes inspiration for her work the minute she looks out of her window. The weather and the changes in season, offering her ever changing wonderment.
Her early photographic career tended towards portraits and weddings. However, with a move to the Netherlands, her interest in landscapes was triggered. After five years following a traditional landscape photography path, she felt a need to express her feelings about the locations she was photographing, rather than just capturing a technically perfect or pretty image of a place. Charlotte has never been one to follow the crowd. So, through a desire to push boundaries, and experiment outside of the expected, she has found a powerful way to express her creativity through Intentional Camera movement and multiple exposure layering of images.
These techniques she feels, help her to add texture, contrast and colour, resulting in images that then require more than a quick glance for the viewer to fully understand what they are looking at. Some of her images are created in a moment of spontaneity, whilst others are carefully combined to replicate a memory. Many of her images are made just a short walk from her house, and prove that you need not travel to beautiful and exotic locations to create unique images. Just that you be inspired and intrigued by a location.
