Authentic Travel Photography In The Age Of Instagram With Sony Artisan Bob Krist

There’s no doubt about it, social media like Instagram and Facebook has allowed photographers to reach much wider audiences. It’s no longer necessary to pass the gatekeepers of magazine art directors and picture editors to share your photos with the world.

The democratization of media has been a boon to photographers. But it’s not without its pitfalls?

Is authentic travel photography still possible in the age of the selfie and the influencer?

In attempting to answer that question, Sony Artisan of Imagery Bob Krist will share the behind the scenes stories from assignments for National Geographic and other magazines, share concrete pointers about how to approach and photograph people on the road, and give a look at the thinking and the images that went into his award winning black and white monograph, Old Souls & Timeless Places (Brilliant Press, Exton, PA 2020).

It’s a thought-provoking and fun program, with lots of practical takeaways you can use.
