PHOTOMONTAGE & COLLAGE What is a Photomontage & Collage?
Photomontage tends to create a more organized presentation or the telling of a story.
A photo
Collage is a collection of pictures that are put together to make a single picture.
In 2018, I shot my first wedding at the beautiful
Stratosphere Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, NV, my best friend was getting married.
The bride's father had this
epic look with his sunglasses, great hair, and his dapper sports jacket with a flower. I thought to myself this would look like a
GREAT shot, asking him to pose in a variety of ways.
After editing the wedding in 4 different colors (2 Color & Black/White versions), I decided to post on Instagram all the pictures side by side, with people loving the
look, effect, and feel of the picture.
INSTAGRAM LINK After posting several pictures in this
technique, the wedding pictures became my
signature look. This
idea turned into a
concept, morphed into a what I call
VISUAL MEDIA:
STORYTELLING THROUGH NARRATIVE LIFE EXPERIENCES Every picture tells a
story, and my goal is to tell
yours with my
signature look.
INSTAGRAM LINK This idea & concept transformed into my
signature look of composing a variety of shots into one
cinematic picture to create a
Narrative Story utilizing
Visual Media.
93% of your interaction is based on
nonverbal communication.
This comes from one of the leading Journals in Communications called
Communication Theory and staple scholarship in graduate school at
Eastern Illinois University.
This statement always stuck with me, continuing to drive my shooting
style to this day.
The process is very simple where you pick your favorite 2 to 10+ pictures,
creating a montage in a digital format.
I will edit the RAW pictures (15-45 megabytes), and you will receive all the pictures in a Digital file along with the collage.
For example, if you order a 3 digital picture collage, you will receive a
total of 4 pictures.
PHOTOMONTAGE & COLLAGE PACKAGE LINK You can then order all the pictures in one picture collage for various prints in my Shop with a diversity of frames,
Metalsare my favorite with a
generous coupon code.
A second option, each picture will be printed in a separate frame where you
CREATE your own Photomontage in any room you desire.
This is a truly
custom order where I have 3 examples that can range from 2 Square Feet To 30 Square Feet if you desire (3 to 47 panels). I would recommend picking your digital pictures you would like and send you examples of the rendered finished product.
Your mind only limits your creativity!
Using
Motorsports as a Model, I tend to overshoot Events (typically anything) because of what I learned in my
Manual Photography class in college (2000) by Dr. Robert C. Wiseman, shooting for
National Geographic all over the world, specifically in
Kenya. He said you often could not recreate those exact sequents of events so by adopting his
philosophy of
Overshooting because, in his Era, you shot manual film. You might shoot 30 rolls of film on Safari in Kenya or South Africa, and pick five shots if you're
lucky.
I might shoot 50 to 100+ pictures of a racer or static car/motorcycle and pick
1-3 shots to potentially publish on Instagram or my Portfolio.
Navigating back to my Motorsports example, shooting a Motorcycle or Car around a challenging track often tells a
dynamic story for the Athlete. This could be a turn, a "chase race" between 2 or racers, or just a group of shots of that person from their
Track Day Xperience.
Essentially, any sequence of pictures.
Any collection of pictures will tell a story that is unique to that individual that will create memories and
epic stories for years to come.
Below is the definition of
Collage vs.
Photomontage if you would like to indulge in your mind.
My role is to provide you with the ultimate
Visual Media Experience with a concept I call “Storytelling Through Narrative Life Experiences” for your content creation.
I’ve Produced thousands of Events across the country in
Experiential & Event Marketing for
Fortune 500 Brands allowing me to give you the ultimate experience of
Guest Service with my Corporate Training on the
Walt Disney World College Program.
I bring what I call the
“Disney Touch” to every Event I
Produce and shoot across the country.
It’s a fleeting moment in time we often take for granted that makes every person
smile in life.
Thank you for your time & enjoy the
"Reflection Of Moments" of what I call
VISUAL MEDIA:
STORYTELLING THROUGH NARRATIVE LIFE EXPERIENCES "Never recreate places from your memories, always imagine new places."
