On Thursday 6th March Smethwick Photographic Society and guests will be treated to club member Warren Alani and his new talk – ‘Inside Out’

Warren Alani is a photographer based in Northamptonshire, UK and a long time member of Smethwick Photographic Society. 

He picked up his first camera as a teenager – a Zenit ET 35mm SLR. This was where his obsession with photography began. In 2009, Warren decided to turn his past-time into something bigger. Taking the knowledge and skills he learned during his youth, he immersed himself in the new age of cutting-edge technology and turned his hobby into craft. In just a few short years, Warren has cultivated a clear artistic direction and a distinctive style in his work. His photography particularly focuses on sports, portraiture, architecture and travel, as well as street-style snapshots taken on the spur of the moment.

This week’s presentation is brand new, entitled ‘INSIDE OUT’. Warren has decided to launch this at Smethwick Photographic Society. In this presentation he will present carefully selected images from his extensive portfolio, captured from around the world and featuring many mini-projects, including a mix of street photography, sports, detailed architecture, photojournalism, and many more styles. Warren’s presented work will cover a mix of colour and black and white images, many of which have never been seen before.

This talk will explore how to evoke emotions directly via your camera, as well as some more unusual left-field photography ideas. Members and guests will leave with tips they can bring to their next photowalk, such as paying attention to the details and getting the picture they want, as well as inspiration for new ideas and subjects to expand their creative eye. From seasoned professionals to beginners just starting on their photography journey, there will certainly be something for everyone.
