3. Plan of Approach (Photography)
1. Concept of photography- The main purpose of any kind of photography is to preserve memories of
favorite times, to capture special moments, to tell stories, to send messages. Furthermore, it is a
source of entertainment.
2. Task description- During the Conceptopedia we will be working in a pair of two and creating a website
which contains the information about our chosen subject, fashion photography. We will design the
website ourselves and search for the particular information that the website will contain.
