What is "low-fidelity photography"?
Low-fidelity photography, often called lo-fi photography, is a style of taking pictures that intentionally emphasizes imperfections and a lack of sharpness. Instead of aiming for high-resolution, clear images, this approach embraces blurry, grainy, or distorted effects to create a nostalgic or artistic look. This can be achieved using simple or old cameras, film with low quality, or special techniques that add visual flaws, making the images appear more raw and unpolished. The result is a distinctive and often vintage feel that contrasts with the precision of modern photography.
