In this program Intentional Photography: Capturing with Products in Mind, Kimberly emphasizes the importance of photographing events and weddings with the album as the ultimate goal. Every image—whether it’s a sweeping scene, an emotional candid, or a timeless portrait—should contribute to the larger story that will live in print. Ultimately, Olker’s session highlights that intentional photography is about bridging creativity with commerce. By shooting with the end use in mind, photographers not only satisfy artistic impulses but also deliver albums and products that sell, persuade, and build trust.
