Most people see photography just as photos and they don’t see the true meaning of the art behind them. Since I was a child, I always had an interest in art, but I could never draw or create my own work. I was drawn to photography because I found that it helped me relax and also brought joy to others faces when they saw my work of nature or people. My favourite types of photos to take are of sunsets, or anything nature related because it captures the true beauty of our world. Also, I realized that photography is a type of art because you can capture things that are important and memorizing to you or even others, so knowing this I felt even more passionate about my work because it was something I loved.
All photography has a story behind them, whether it was a sunny day, an adventure or just for fun, the photos are important and have value just like a painting would. For example, the right family photo has the value of how your family interacts, the memories you made while getting your professional photos done and being able to happily show them to others with pride.
Photography can be easy, but also tricky because it does require some skills that need to be used when capturing the right photo at the right time. Knowing the angles and how to capture the right lighting are the main keys to a quality photo, as well as knowing the proper editing and adjusting required. In conclusion I believe that passion, meaning and skills are what make photography a piece of art.
