During our fifth session of “Book as an Artwork” workshop we welcomed Ferdi Limani with his lecture on “Storytelling through photography”.

We discussed how to communicate important social issues to the public through photography and how by mastering the frame we guide the eye of the audience.

We learned good practices in photography by exploring Ferdi’s beginner mistakes and evolution of his style towards simplicity, as well as the importance of learning from mistakes.

We explored the strength that comes from limitations (either in equipment or environment), how to take photos with respect for the people/subjects, as well as the importance of taking your time to take a picture.

Ferdi Limani is an independent photographer, who works with Getty Images. He studied journalism and with local and international media in news and documentary projects.

This program is made possible with the generous support of the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports of the Republic of Kosovo.
