Personal Voice

It's Personal!

This module is the culmination of learning the basics of photography – historical development, darkroom techniques, exposure, camera limitations, and photography’s development and evolution as an art form. Now we turn to you, the artist.

How will you take these skills and knowledge and create art?
What do you have to say that only you can say?

Why we create, what we create, how we create it – this is all a part of your unique personal voice as an artist.

Take a look at these three photographs.

The subject of each is the same. But the photographs are not the same. How can someone look at each of these and immediately know the photographer that created them?

This is personal voice.
