Art Photography.

The type or style of a photograph that

can be defined as "Fine Art" will

differ with each photographers'

expression.

Opposite is the Wikipedia definition

of Fine Art Photography to shed a

little light on the principles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Fine art photography, sometimes simply called art photography, refers to photographs that are created to fulfill the creative vision of the artist. Fine art photography stands in contrast to photojournalism and commercial photography, the latter's main focus being to sell a product or service. In the 19th and 20th century, prints were usually done in limited editions to inflate their value to dealers, and collectors.

An artist doing fine art photography is creating photographs primarily to satisfy their own vision and creative intent. The final creative reason for a fine art photograph is the photograph itself. It is not a means to another end except perhaps to please those besides the photographer who behold it. Fine art photography can be used to promote something. They are created most importantly to be true to the artist’s vision of beauty."
