The invention of photography was truly revolutionary; it changed everything.
The first photograph is understood to have been produced in 1826. The word
produced is key here. Photography as we know it, is incredibly fast, it
certainly doesn’t feel produced, it feels organic; but it wasn’t always like
that. Photographs weren’t taken 170 years ago, they were produced. The moment
was captured over an extended period of time, in order to capture the light necessary to accurately recreate
the scene. In an effort to aid with the posing process a strange but practical
invention was created. A clamp to hold the poser’s head and posture still. These were called Posing Stands.
