During a trip through Spain, French photographer Nicolas Rivals set up geometric shapes of light and shot long-exposure photos of them glowing in Spanish landscapes. The project is titled "La Línea Roja," which translates to "The Red Line."

The idea of standing in front of a camera is terrifying to most photographers, but when it comes to your own engagement and wedding photography, you have no choice, right? Well... maybe not. Toronto-based photographer Navy Nhum recently managed to capture a great engagement session with her sweetheart all by their lonesome.

This is an older video (2014... practically prehistoric in social media terms), but if you're looking for a totally different take on the "one second of video per day" idea, this is it. Musician Publio Delgado sang two notes every day for almost a year, and by the end, he had sung all of Bach's famous Cello Suite No.1.

The kind of photography I do begins as a moment of theft. Finding the scene, finding your angle, and stealing the moment for yourself. Some photographers are creators. They build a scene, a still life, or arrange their models and angle their lights and create an image from nothing. I’m not one of those photographers. I’m a thief.

One of my passions in life is travel. I love to travel, experience new cultures, try new foods, meet new people and, of course, take photos while I’m traveling.

Don't let the Photoshopped facades fool you, creatives of all stripes deal with depression. That's the topic of this short-but-important video by Rob of Rob & Jonas' Filmmaking Tips. Rob is a filmmaker, but many photographers will instantly relate to the thoughts he shares in this video.

When we've shared Michael Shainblum's work in the past, it's usually been a timelapse or tutorial. But the photographer and filmmakers has continued to evolve creatively, and RISE is his debut into the world of aerial videography. The subject: Oregon.

This sweet photo shoot might not seem like anything special on the surface, but these wedding photos are actually 70 years in the making.

As photographers, whether consciously or not, I think we’re all trying to capture moments in the way that we would like our own moments to be captured. What then are we supposed to do when it’s our turn to be the subject? This question troubled me as my wedding day drew closer. Who does the wedding photographer choose to photograph his own wedding?

I entered the world of photography when digital cameras where already on the rise, and as a result, I learned photography on digital. That being said, I am a sucker for anything analog... the sensation of using real organic materials to produce photographs excites me.

December 3rd, 2015 was the day I bought my first camera. I carefully chose one body and one lens: a Nikon D5300 and a 50mm prime lens. Here are a few of the things I've learned throughout my journey

It's not every day that you come across a camera that's big enough for the photographer to stand in. But that's what photographer Ross den Otter built for the recent Capture Photography Festival in Vancouver, Canada: he shot portraits from inside a 4x8x8-foot camera obscura.

The first season of Top Photographer is now over, and a winning photographer has been crowned. In case you missed the Adorama TV-produced and Nigel Barker-hosted Web reality TV series, here's the entire first season for you to binge.

Remember that camera we found on YouTube a few months back? The same one that just smashed its Kickstarter goal? Yeah... it's awesome. And this demo by Applied Sciences shows you one reason why: pseudo bullet time.

Finnish photographer Viivi Häkkinen has been working on an unusual photo project that both exhibits beauty and pays homage to death. Forget Me Not is a series of photos showing roadkill memorialized in a way that celebrates the dead animals' lives.

UK couple Dave and Sarah love both films and felines, so they've launched an Instagram project that combines the two. Called @moviecats, each photo they shoot is a scene from a famous movie recreated with the help of their two cats.

My name is Marius Hanzak, and I'm an experimental photography student currently studying at the Cleveland College of Art and Design in the UK. For one of my recent projects, titled RGB Church Street, I experimented with making color photos using black and white film.

Here's a new 11-minute video in which Ted Forbes of The Art of Photography discusses how all the greatest and most successful photographers he has met through the years have shared one "secret" in common: "extreme determination."

I feel that there's a word missing from our vocabulary, and this essay is the culmination of an effort to find such a word, to define it usefully, and to work through some of what it might mean.

When someone says you need to "think outside the box" when it comes to marketing your skills and getting work as a photographer, Toronto-based photographer Aric Guité's #CollabWithAric campaign is exactly what they're talking about.

Starting about 40 years ago, photographer Chris Porsz began shooting street portraits of strangers he met in his hometown of Peterborough in England. For the past few years, Porsz has been tracking down those subjects and asking them to pose for recreations of those decades-old photos. The ambitious project is titled Reunions.

We'll forgive you if you've never heard of Mifuneyama Rakuen. The Japanese park—home to 200,000 azaleas and 2,000 cherry trees—isn't famous. What it is, is gorgeous, as French photographer Jordy Meow recently captured from both sky and ground.

If you could pick anybody, alive or dead, what photographer would you choose to take your portrait? That's the question DPReview just asked 10 well-known photographers.

"The Blue Moment" is the latest photo series by Hong Kong-based photographer Romain Jacquet-Lagreze. His goal was to capture his city during the beautiful and "fleeting time between day and night when a mystical blue veil envelops the city" -- a time commonly referred to by photographers as "blue hour."

This might be one of those few times when the word "epic" applies. For her latest newsworthy feat, celebrity wedding photographer Suzanne Delawar managed to get an entire wedding—wedding party and guests—to stand perfectly still several times for the #mannequinchallenge.

When a total solar eclipse occurred back on March 20, 2015, photographer György Soponyai decided to capture it in a creative way. He shot a series of photos of the sun traveling across the sky above Norway, and then stitched the images together into the above "little planet" photo of the sun being eclipsed.

It’s like I hit a wall. Not hit, actually... fell through. And everything on the other side was magic. This past year has been the most creatively transformative year I’ve had since I first picked up a camera.

Creativity. It’s something I’ve been toying with in my own mind for the last couple of years. The question of ‘how can I develop and grow my work/art?’ is a problem that I think plagues most creative people. With creativity, there aren’t essentially any simple answers.

While playing baseball at the age of 21, an ill-advised slide into third base cost Loren Worthington the use of his limbs. 30 years later, he's now a talented sports photographer whose work earned him a job capturing adaptive sports at the Rio Paralympics.
