Caption: BTS Stories Beyond the Frame
#StellerStories
Caption: When I take a photo, my camera's sole purpose is to capture exactly what is in front of it.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
And while the photo taken tells a story, there are so many other stories to tell behind the scenes (BTS)
Picture
Caption: This is the product of what I pointed my camera at.

Caption: What doesn't get conveyed are my frozen feet or the howling winds blowing at me.
The BTS shot tells that story.
Caption: BTS shots usually serve as a fun distraction to pass the time during longer exposures and is a great excuse to get creative with my surroundings.

Caption: The Hunter Sometimes, the BTS shot is not about the environment or the camera at all. Rather, it's about the photographer and what their creative process looks like.

Caption: Ultimately, BTS shots are a great way to recount the experiences and memories that lived beyond the four walls of the camera frame.
Just remember to capture them now so that you can remember them again later.
