Photography Lecture: “Insight on Improving Your Images” by Robin Davis

Join the Cobb Photographic Society the 3rd Monday of every month to hear interesting talks on a variety of photography subjects from talented local and regional photographers.

This month fine art Atlanta photographer Robin Davis will provide insights on improving your photography. Robin Davis discusses the layers of meaning behind her images, all created in-camera, and not dependent on post-processing effects.

Robin will also relate how painting has influenced her work and photography as an art form, and will go back in time to consider the historical traditions linking painting and photography.

She will tell the tales and uncanny coincidences behind the making of her 13 Women series, and how her representations of character archetypes let us know that the timeless struggle and triumphs of myth still live within us and connect us all.

In addition, she will share some of her in-camera techniques, and the importance of setting your intention and working within an idea-based series to create photography with meaning.
