Color
“Color is very much about atmosphere and emotion and the feel of a place.”
Alex Webb

In visual storytelling, color is never just decoration — it’s language. It’s mood. It’s intention.
Color has the power to shape the emotional weight of an image long before form or subject even register. Reds and oranges evoke heat, urgency, even danger — they demand attention. Blues and greens, by contrast, soothe us, drawing us inward like the hush of deep water or the calm of a forest after rain. Yellows warm the frame with light — the gentle glow of a sunrise, or the golden intimacy of candlelight.
As a cinematographer and photographer, I use color the way a composer uses sound — to guide the emotional rhythm of an image. With intention and restraint, a single dominant color can become the visual heartbeat of a shot. When used carefully, color directs the eye and amplifies meaning. When misused — when multiple hues compete without harmony — it confuses, scatters attention, and dilutes impact.
Sometimes, creating a powerful image means stepping closer, changing the angle, or isolating a detail. Whether through a long lens or the movement of your body, simplifying the color palette often strengthens the story. When we reduce distraction, we allow color to speak more clearly — and what it says can be unforgettable.
For me, color isn’t just part of the image.
It is the emotion of the image.
