NARRATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY
Narrative photography is the idea that photographs can be used to tell a story. Allen Feldman stated that "the event is not what happens. The event is that which can be narrated". In this case, the medium is photograph.
Narrative photography example
Photographer: Lawrence Ripsher
Cameras used: Canon 5D (Mark I) and a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L zoom
Editing Software: Photoshop Cs2
This photograph shows a girl in a chair sitting in a very depressed like position, The rule of 3 is applied due to the subject of the photo is placed towards the right of the frame. The space left on the left side gives the photograph a very desolated and abandoned feeling. The reflection of the girl in the water and the rubbish around her also connotes a feeling of loneliness.
Staged photography involves a performance enacted before the camera.
It embraces studio portraiture and character driven scenarios directed or manipulated by the photographer.
