Bambi Cantrell: How to capture !EMOTION! in your photographs

Content shared via: silberstudios.tv 

Bambi Cantrell is one of the world’s most decorated and sought after professional photographers of our time. She’s been recognized by everyone from Microsoft to American Photo Magazine and was the first woman to be honored with the prestigious “Golden Eye” award from the Russian Federation of Professional Photographers. Clearly she’s got the technical side of her game in order.

But we feel one of the main reasons why she’s shot for The Estee Lauder Family, legendary basketball player Gary Payton, and members of the Royal Family, Dubai, UAE is her ability to really make her subjects comfortable. The ability to connect plays a huge role in getting truly personal shots that make her portraits really resonate.

Photographers love to document where they've been and what they've seen, and tell stories about the people they've met along the way. If you're traveling down the street for a sweet-light outing or hopping a plane to get to the other side of the globe, you'll be bringing your gear and your desire to take unique photographs. Marc Silber interviewed Patagonia photographer Jeff Johnson (see photos above) to learn more about his travel photography experience and the approach he takes, preferring to tell a story and take a more photojournalistic approach ... versus just shooting pretty pictures.
