How much connection is sealed within a family portrait? In the past, it was a common family ritual to visit studios to take family portraits during the Lunar New Year. However, the popularisation of photography has led to the forgetting of family portraits.
How much connection and precious memories are contained within a family portrait? In the old days, it was a common practice for many families to visit studios to take family portraits during the Lunar New Year. However, with the passage of time,the popularisation of photography has led to the forgetting of family portraits.
If you would like to experience the essence of taking family portraits from the old days Koon Man Space will be holding the ‘Portraits of Family Memories – Bobby Sham Large Format Family Portrait Photography Workshop’ at the end of this month before the Lunar New Year. This photography workshop is divided into two parts:
Bobby will first introduce participants to the history of family portraits, the evolution and application of large format photography, as well as share his own works and those of other photography artists; In the later part, Bobby and his team will guide participants in using the provided large format camera, the Ebony RSW45, and 4×5 colour sheet film (each family can take four shots) to capture their own family portrait using large format photography techniques, allowing for a renewed understanding and expression of their relationships with family members.
Whether it’s laughter, tears, or the little moments of daily life, a powerful family portrait can outline a unique family story. Large format photography adds a distinctive artistic quality to family photos, featuring shallow depth of field that makes the subjects stand out clearly while softly blurring the background.
Join us at the workshop with your family this Lunar New Year to capture an amazing family portrait and cherish the wonderful moments of togetherness!
