WEEK 2// How to Take Photos That Tell a Story
Hello and welcome to Kika's 12 Week Photo Challenge!
This is a FREE photo challenge series that anyone can join, with whatever equipment you have, and you can start and complete the videos at in your own time :)
There's two videos each week, one on Monday where we focus on getting you in the right mindset, and a photo challenge video each Thursday.
This is the second Monday Mindset video, and today we're going to talk about how to take photos that tell a story.
Photography is all about visual storytelling, and how you can capture an emotion or narrative in just a spilt second in a still frame. In this video I'm sharing some thoughts on how to make your storytelling more clear when taking and planning photos. The style of photography I do is usually preplanned and more conceptual then documentary style photogrpahy, but I still think these ideas and tips apply to all kinds of photography.
I've also created a free workbook with some photo planning sheets, questions to help you figure out your photography style, an Instagram checklist, editing tips + more!
Download it here view.flodesk.c...
I hope this video gave you some helpful ideas and pumped for another Thursday Photo challenge, so now, will you join me in #kikasphotochallenge? :)
Let me know in the comments below and also share you IG handle so I can check out your photos!
Thank you so much for watching this video & see you on Thursday!
Xx Kika 💫

The first week was so fun seeing the other photos and discussing them in the comments with the others. Thanks so much for doing this. I love how you give us ideas and direction to ponder and sink in before you give us the direct topic, this will keep my mind busy during the winter months here in Michigan.

Hi Kika, you are so inspiring and I always smile when I'm watching you, because you are smiling and "cracking" jokes! I love it! The winter is so beautiful in your country, it reminds me the winter in my country and I am far away from it, as I moved to more southern country, but I really miss snow! I love that people are skiing on the background, it reminds me my childhood! Thank you Kika for positive vibes and tonne of inspiration! 👍💗

All these different ideas are running through my head as to what it could be. How ever last weeks was a surprise I didn’t expect that. I’m just Loving the twist on them. It’s very exciting. 🤭

I am a new follower. (From Belgium) i recently bought a Sony a6000 and want to learn All About photography. I really want to become a dog photographer, but i still have so much to learn. I have a little question. How do you get your ideas? Do you brainstorm or mindmap or does it come naturally? Thank you for the great videos!!! 👌🏼
