How to show emotion without photographing a face

Inspiration

Filed under:

This year in my Facebook group Emotional Storytelling we have been working to inspire and create new images based on weekly themes. Our most recent theme was #faceless. This is one of my favorite types of images and I always feel this pictures tell so much more of a story by showing less.

I was so overwhelmed by the all of the incredible ways these talented artists were able to photograph their subjects and take my breath away over and over again. We had so many submissions for this theme and I had a really hard time controlling myself when choosing features!!

We would love to have you follow along and join the conversation in our Facebook group Emotional Storytelling with Twyla Jones

This week will we be sharing images taken with a tilt shift, lens baby, or free lensed! If you don’t have one of these fun lenses and haven’t been brave enough to try free lensing, I made up a quick tutorial for how to add a tilt shift effect in post that you can watch here.
