Event Photography – Telling A Complete Story
by Stuart Blower
Being aware of how to tell a story with images, is key to understanding how to cover any event successfully.
This lecture will examine what is needed for successful event coverage, and how to make it work. Images can be used for print promotions, or social media, what they look like is all part of the variety of uses images are put to under the general heading of “Events”.
Digital slide show options will be discussed along with printed samples suitable for self publishing.

Why am I drawn to deep dark shadows and bold yet soft light? What is it about wanting to create foreboding images in the editing process? These are the questions I have pondered over the years. I wonder if I am partly inspired by the darkness of my images because it is a representation of my mental health battles. Does the movement from the dark shadows to the bright light symbolize my journey in the last few years, from the darkness of depression to the happiness of light? Or is it because the scenes just look cool? Whatever the reasons, I am drawn in both the field and in my editing process to bold visual stories that tell the journey from the deep shadows into the light.
“A recovering accountant turned adventurer and photographic storyteller, I love to chronicle the unusual nuances of the outside world. With a curious mind, I explore our planet by challenging myself in my adventures and in my art.”
