Minimalist photography is characterized by its focus on simplicity, emphasizing the essential elements of a scene while eliminating distractions. This style emerged in the 1960s, influenced by the broader minimalist movement in art, and is marked by a careful composition that often features a single subject against a sparse background, making effective use of negative space.

Key Characteristics

• Simplicity: The mantra "less is more" encapsulates the essence of minimalist photography. Photographers aim to distill their images to the most fundamental components, often using monochromatic color schemes and geometric shapes.
• Negative Space: This technique involves leaving areas of the image unoccupied, drawing attention to the subject and creating a sense of balance and serenity.
• Composition Techniques: The rule of thirds is commonly employed to create visually appealing images by positioning subjects off-center, enhancing viewer engagement. 

• Notable Photographers

​​Prominent minimalist photographers include Michael Kenna and Hiroshi Sugimoto, known for their ability to evoke emotion and depth through simplicity. 

In a world overwhelmed by visual stimuli, minimalist photography invites viewers to appreciate the beauty in simplicity and the extraordinary within the ordinary.
