There are two main ways you can tell your story with your camera, in one single image or a series of images. For a story in one picture, consider everything in your frame. Include the environment, subject(s), action and any supporting details. Start by watching scenes unfold and waiting for the moments when everything falls into place. Stories told in one picture are great for little moments like being silly after dinner, a quiet moment between a father and child or anytime you want to quickly preserve a memory. While shooting a 365 project (a picture a day for a whole year), I focus each day on telling a story in one picture.
