  • Image Is More Than Perfect Composition & Light - Interview with Bieke Depoorter
    Dec 15 2022
    There is a notion that if you want to become a good photographer, then perfect compositions and great lighting will be your best friends. And this is true. But the intention, why you are making the image, and your relationship with your subject are what make good photographers great. Belgian photographer Bieke Depoorter is one of those great (if not one of the best) photographers making use of the relationships she is able to establish. Her unconventional approach to the presentation of her projects and the way she pushes the limits of the medium are just a couple of the things about her that have fascinated me for quite some time, and I was fortunate enough to be able to talk to her about this, and much more.
