A Cross-Genre Dialogue: Portrait Meets Landscape Photographer

Thomas Chu Photo

Recently, renowned portrait photographer 无限TX and landscape photographer Thomas Chu Photo carried out a crossover creation and workshop together in Dunhuang.

In the very same desert, the perspectives of a portrait photographer and a landscape photographer turned out completely different!

Photography: 无限TX

Both are photography, yet portrait shooting and landscape creation have their differences as well as much in common in aesthetics, learning, and business. Between creating and teaching, the two photographers held a rich conversation covering 6 questions everyone cares about:

1. What do you consider good portrait and landscape photography?

2. What are the similarities and differences between portrait and landscape photography? Why this crossover collaboration?

3. Could you briefly introduce your personal photography journey?

4. How did you learn photography? Any advice for self-learners?

5. Which are your own 3 favorite personal works (or series)?

6. Why did you decide to become a professional photographer? What is the life of a professional photographer like, and what are its pros and cons?

Below is the full video of this conversation along with the presentation slides!
