Photographer Camille Seaman: Deep looking and thinking to help find your voice

Camille talks about the ability of photographs to convey meanings in unique way. She advises to look a picture for at least three minutes in order to best understand it. Says Seaman, “[Whether] it’s photographic, painting, whatever, visual art, [whether] you hate it or love it or feel ambiguous about it, the fact that it’s making you feel anything at all is impressive— that this thing has a power to influence your emotions.”

Camille Seaman is a well respected and widely published photographer, whose work has appeared in National Geographic, Time Magazine, Camera Arts, the New York Times, and in many others. In 2008, she presented a number of her photographs in a one-artist show entitled "The Last Iceberg," at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, DC. Her photographs showed fragile and deteriorating images of the arctic wilderness. Some of her work can be seen at: camilleseaman.com
