Ep 140 - Creativity and Expression in Landscape Photography with Genevieve Ginty

For Genevieve Ginty, the complex simplicity of colour and light has always captured her, takes her breath away, and propels her to create.
 
Combining her love, study, and practice of art, photography, and design with twenty years of media production, management, and educating, for Genevieve, this is  the perfect marriage of form and function. Clear communication and individual expression to create beautiful photographs or designs and/or a well-designed space in a website.
 
Amongst decades of work and life experience, Genevieve studied at the National Art School in Sydney, The Australian Center for Photography and The Graphic Design School. She started working with Photoshop in the 1990s and self-taught her way through the Adobe suite ever since. Genevieve worked in film and television production for 20 years and spent almost half of that teaching the same at the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS).
 
In this episode, Genevieve candidly shares her journey in the photographic field, from getting her first Polaroid camera as a child to building a career in landscape photography. 
 
She discusses how growing up in a creative family, her love for art and the landscape have significantly influenced her work.
