Lessons
Class Description
Every month, John gives you an hour of expert guidance and immediate feedback with ten questions and ten critiques in this exciting new series we're calling One Hour Photo. John will also sit down with one guest photographer to offer insights, advice, and industry knowledge, and this month's guest is John Keatley.
In this hour, John responds to questions about shooting around the Grand Canyon area, a camera suitable for left-handed people, Lensbaby lenses, the benefits of mirrorless cameras, and lens recommendations for portraits.
John Keatley is a well-known commercial photographer based in Seattle, WA. He often self-characterizes his work as a reflection of himself, rather than the individual he is photographing. In recent years, his journey of self-discovery has brought clarity to emotions that have always been present yet were previously unknown. Anxiety. Fear. Isolation. Not Being In Control. Keatley capitalizes on the correlation between these emotions and humor. It is a fine line, sitting in the pain of the emotion and understanding that pain can also be humorous. Yet John beautifully executes this dichotomy in his work, as the viewer is invited to stay a moment longer and ponder the unexpected. Check out his CreativeLive class here.
