Business Case: March of Dimes Charity Event

  • Community Support: Local businesses donated to the cause, showing strong community involvement.

Expert Photography Opinion
As the professional photographer, I approached this event with the intention of capturing not only the visuals but the energy and emotion behind each moment. My photographic style was focused on storytelling, using a combination of wide-angle shots, dynamic action sequences, and intimate candid moments. The concept was to showcase both the large-scale participation and the personal connections between families and the cause.

  • Style and Composition:I utilized natural light whenever possible to keep the photos vibrant and true to the event's atmosphere.
    Depth of field was strategically used to focus attention on key moments—whether it was a child laughing or a family walking together—while maintaining a sense of context within the crowd.
    Movement and Action: The walkathon itself demanded a lot of motion shots, where I captured people in mid-step to convey the energy of the event.
    I ensured that each shot was composed to emphasize emotion, whether through the expressions of the participants or the interaction between family members and the community.
  • Editing Process:
    I meticulously edited each image individually to maintain the highest quality and consistency. While many photographers delegate editing, I personally took charge of every photograph to preserve the mood, adjust color balance, enhance natural textures, and highlight the most poignant moments. This hands-on approach ensured that every photo was both technically perfect and emotionally resonant.
