The power of photography in campaigns?


The power of photography in campaigns

 
Photos are everywhere, and whether we realise it or not they are affecting us all the time – where we click the mouse, what we buy, what news articles we watch or read and whether we think the news is important to us or not.

The prevalence of imagery in everyday life reflects a simple fact – it is an unparalleled tool of communication, able to prompt a reaction in the instant it takes for someone to catch sight of it, yet to convey a huge amount of information to someone who chooses to look closer.

Photography is not simply an art activity, but a language that can be used to inform, persuade, shock, amuse or intrigue.
