INTRO TO AESTHETICS IN PHOTOGRAPHY

We all take photos – some for fun, some as a visual diary of memories, some professionally. But what we want is for those photos to represent us – how we see, what we feel, what we want to convey. This is where finding personal style comes into play; that something that makes our photos recognizable and directly attributable to us. Adi Bulboacă will guide you in this process of starting to define your personal style. It could be the chromatics, it could be a particular point of view, or it could be a general perception that you are conveying. This workshop is for you if you feel that your photos look like many other photos you see, if you are stuck in photographic rules and don't know what's good and what's not, or if you simply want a touch of artistic inspiration from one of our most inspirational photographers. We only have 10 places available. After the workshop we invite you to stay in our garden for a drink and a discussion.

Adi Bulboacă photograph artists, shows, trains, stations and moments that evoke emotions; is one of the most famous theater photographers in Romania. You see a Bulboacă almost every time you look at theater posters. He started by photographing his fellow actors of his generation and continued until he exceeded a thousand theatrical, dance and performance performances photographed. For many years already he has been the official photographer of several theater festivals, the TIFF festival or cultural events in Romania. Lately he has discovered his passion for running and when he is not photographing, he is training for or participating in marathons. Adi is the kind of photographer for whom no sacrifice is too great, in the sense that if he is in a new place, he will give up activities like socializing or sleeping to explore with camera in hand. He believes that his role is to give back to the community and he sincerely believes in the importance of the role of teacher, guide, mentor. Adi has enthusiastically joined the center and you will be able to meet him at CdRF at courses and workshops, but also at our events.

"Is this a fest?"/ Photography Days in Bucharest is the first festival under the aegis of CdRF. The first part of the festival is dedicated to education through a series of introductory photography workshops. We have like this:
