For most of us, photography is inherently technical. We strive to obtain the most recent and superior gear, sometimes just so we can play with new toys.

There is nothing wrong with that, but photography goes beyond the equipment we use, and it can be hard at times not to lose focus that we are creatives first and foremost.

With this approach in mind, Sony Artisan of Imagery Thibault Roland will use his own work to introduce the concepts behind some of his signature techniques such as long exposure, infrared and tilt/shift photography. He will discuss how they can be used in order to create unique looking images and effects, and how a change in perspective with respect to equipment can drastically improve your own photographic work.
