Narrative Photography: Tell A Captivating Story Through Your Images

Have you ever been moved by a series of images that visually captivated you? You were drawn in by a story with central theme. This is called narrative photography.

Many photographers strive to create singular, iconic images - but with a narrative series you have the power to craft a meaningful story and take viewers on a journey.

In this class, you will learn how to build a narrative story through just a few images.

We’ll Cover:

• Concepting your ideas
• Visual elements of storytelling
• Pre-production planning
• Executing your series
• Distributing your work using LinkedIn (Bonus)

This class is great for beginner photographers, seasoned photographers, and any creative looking to expand their storytelling skills.

My name is Andrew Kung and I’m a photographer based in Brooklyn, NY. I’ve been pursuing photography for 4 years now, having gone to business school and worked in Silicon Valley prior to pursuing photography full time. I found early success and fulfillment from shooting campaigns for brands like Beats by Dre, Glossier, and HBO, but quickly realized that I wanted to say more with my images. In my work, my visual language works across genres to visualize the Asian American experience, and has been featured in Dazed, i-D, Artsy, and CNN.
