40 Amazing Examples of Minimalist Photography

Minimalist photography is a technique in composing an image wherein the photographer uses a minimum amount of elements such as color, shape, line and texture. Basically, a minimalist photo is characterized by its simplicity but this does not necessarily mean it is a boring or uninteresting capture. On the contrary, a well-composed minimalist picture, can be dramatic and engaging to the audience. It has a potential to set ablaze the creative side of an individual encouraging him to form a subjective interpretation of the image before him. As a whole, the simplicity of a minimal photograph is what makes it a draw, and the striking setup, blending or interaction of one or two components makes it meaningful and artistic. Just like other minimalist artworks graphic designs and web designs, such as WordPress themes with minimal design, can be designed to fit into the popular phrase “less is more” in the hands of a skillfully captured minimalist photograph.

In this post, we are sharing with you some great examples of minimalist photography that you can enjoy or use as inspiration.
