The Importance Of Your Own Voice in Photography

Annapolis River Marsh, Nova Scotia

“A great photographer’s power is the product of light and composition. This might be called the photographer’s voice. Repeating the composition of another, even if the light is different, pointlessly repeats what has already been ‘said’. It is mere mimicry. Photographer’s should strive for their own voice, strive to say something genuinely different about the place in their own way.” – David Ward
