Composition and Visual Design for Nature Photographers

Sarah Marino
Composition and Visual Design for Nature Photographers


In this session, Sarah will share her essential lessons about how to create more powerful compositions of subjects in nature. We will go beyond the "rules" and will instead focus on some versatile concepts that you can immediately put into practice in any landscape. 

We will discuss the creative process as it relates to composition, improving your observational skills to help recognize opportunities in the field, learning to see a landscape through its abstract elements, and key concepts for organizing nature's chaos into cohesive compositions. Sarah will also share her steps for refining a composition in the field and will provide some practical activities to help you immediately apply these ideas in your photography.
