Starting two years ago, Gunter Haibach started a new column to showcase our members. I continued it last year when Gunter’s responsibilities elsewhere kept him too busy to continue. If you would like to be profiled, please contact me at [email protected]. It simply involves providing me with an image of yourself and your current favourite image that you have taken, as well as answering a few questions. We look forward to hearing about more of you, especially the new members. ! ! PAGE 3 VOLUME 54, NO. 1 SEPTEMBER 2014 Visual Storytelling with Kevin Van Paassen ! Once again, we got off to a great start with a fabulous presentation on visual story telling. Kevin is a freelance photographer who has worked around the globe, including covering the war in Afghanistan and the 2012 Olympic Games in London, England. He has worked for the National Post, The Globe and Mail, MacLeans and the New York Times. A talent that is evident in his body of work is the ability to tell a story through a single image. Kevin shared with the club his secrets to capturing the story in the moment. ! The picture should: - provide context and help set the scene - create a connection by putting a human face on the story - add depth and understanding - conveys feeling and emotion ! Kevin talked about getting to know your subject, bringing out their personality and showing their spirit. This award winning picture is of Rose, a “self-identified” little girl. The picture shows a young girl, surrounded by her personality: wearing dresses, with long hair, surrounded by teddy bears and dolls, in a feminine room.
