Principles of Design
Principles of Design: the different arrangements or compositions of the elements of design to create artistic, interesting, and more visually powerful photographs.
1. Emphasis- points of interest to pull the viewer to importance
2. Balance- sense of stability in a body of work (equal weight)
3. Unity/Harmony- all parts equal a whole
4. Contrast- opposites and differences in the work
5. Movement/Rhythm- directing the viewer throughout
6. Pattern/Repetition- occurs over and over again
7. Size/Scale- comparing small and large
