How can we use the genre of architectural photography to tell a more personal story of place? This course invites you to engage with architecture to develop your photography skills, style, and practice overall. You will focus your camera on an architectural site that is significant to you and create a short series, or narrative, that moves beyond architectural photography as a faithful representation of the built environment, to include your personal encounter, response and experience of place. Through weekly exercises, discussion, and critique, your work will develop while we draw inspiration from established architectural photographers, past and present. 

This class is suitable for both beginners and experienced photographers who want to engage in a creative way with the built environment, space, place, and narrative. We’ll also cover composition, camera angles, and perspective as well as the role and relationship between aperture and shutter speed for exposure and focus.

 

 
Thank you so much Marianne for this wonderful class! Adding text to my images isn’t something that I’ve ever done, but after this class I really like what I can do with images and stories. I also loved the structure of the class, how, step by step, we got to understand about adding text to images. Thank you for sharing your work, it's so creative! And the other work you showed was original and gave me a lot to think about.

I really enjoyed taking “Architecture and Narrative” with Marianne — she is a very, very inspiring teacher and I want to take more courses with StrudelmediaLive.
