photomatopoeia

pho•to•mat•o•poe•ia | ˌfotoˌmatəˈpēə |

noun
the image of a subject associated with what is photographed

Words certainly evoke the imagination, yet it is photography that evokes emotion. With the idea of experiencing photography, I want to change the conversation from the technical to the emotional side of what makes a good picture. Ultimately, we photograph to record the human condition, and without emotion, it’s just another picture in the sea of a trillion photos.

  1. “No one wants to die. Even people who wanna go to heaven, don’t wanna die to get there. And yet, death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be. And that is because death is the single best invention of life. It’s life’s change-agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now, the new is you. But some day not too long from now, you’ll be gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it’s quite true. Your time is limited. So don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise others’ opinions drown out your inner voice. And most important: have the courage to follow your heart and intiuition; they somehow already what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. […] Stay hungry, stay foolish.” – Steve Jobs, 2005.
