A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Does a ‘body of work’ emerge or do you pursue it? (alien.top)

Hey so I am wrestling with this in my creative journey and I am hoping some more seasoned creatives have some insight. Does a body of work emerge from just having fun with photography looking back and seeing themes or a style emerge?

OR is it more intentional? For example a style or photographic project where you build a body of work around a particular theme or project

OR something else 😂

Thanks

It depends on my mood, some days I plan a shoot and follow the plan qnd other days I just go out and see what I get inspired by.

Both. Just don’t make the mistake of thinking a ‘style’ is a particular postproduction technique or lighting choice.
