It’s A Picture Book! Every photograph contributes dramatic impact to telling the stories of the year.
Storytelling Photos Action Candids capturing peak of the moment Reaction Candids showcasing emotional responses Snapshot/environmental portraits Posed photos telling one-of-a-kind stories or featuring unique personalities Illustration Icons adding dimensions to verbal content Digitally altered and/or posed photos symbolizing visual content
Integrating Photos Content variety: before, during and after 75-80% action 10-15% reaction 5-10% snapshot/illustration Size and shape Vertical/horizontal/square Composition Single subject/multi-subject/crowd Artistic diversity Compositional concepts
Angle of View Bird’s eye Worm’s eye Side view Above view
Leading looks/lines Imaginary or real lines lead the reader to the subject (CVI - center of visual interest) and heighten content appeal
Framing Use of objects or people to frame and draw attention to CVI
Selective focus Subject(s) or CVI are in focus while background and/or foreground is blurred
Repetition/patterns Repetition or patterns of people, expressions or surroundings lead viewers to the CVI
Silhouettes Subject appears black because light source is behind subject and not the photographer
Rule of thirds Photo is divided into thirds vertically and horizontally: subject is placed on one of the intersecting lines or hot spots
Photo Trends “Just us” photos Facebook/Tumblr-like posed photos Black/white and color images Selective color, duotones, transparency Unusual cropping COB, partial COB, tight Illustrative and environmental Personal profile photos
