“I have the desire to photograph. I go out with my camera. I come across something that excites me emotionally, spiritually, aesthetically. I see the photograph in my mind’s eye and I compose and expose the negative. I give you the print as the equivalent of what I saw and felt.”
-Alfred Stieglitz


Light, color, texture, and content come together in a photograph to enchant a viewer evoking emotions deep inside not allowing them to glance away. Light can reveal, accentuate, or create content, while color can add tone or emphasize certain parts of the photograph. Texture and content itself is what makes the photograph visually stimulating bringing about those emotions captivating the viewer. In photographs the emotions and thoughts of the photographer bleeds through their work, in these aspects, sharing a glimpse of themselves to the viewer.
