Music to my ears

E

Get those models pumped with great music. I find it helps ease the more shy people into their photo shoot. Different looks = different songs for some. Sometimes it just takes a little help to be inspired and we love the use of music. Even babies love their TV show songs. They will clap and laugh making it easier for a great shot. This works well for the kids that are too young to listen but to old to sit still. Of course there are tons of ways to help a photo shoot and this is one of the many we like to use.

Background Dilemma

E

When taking professional pictures for corporate use , We stress the importance of a 18% Grey card. This helps you out a great deal when trying to achieve a pure,crisp white or jet black background. This is something you should have if you would like to take pictures of an object to sell on eBay or even for a portrait shot. It gives great photo exposure. Your picture is that much more eye catching when your background is beautifully exposed. Nothing is worst than a black background turning grey. the reason this happens is because your camera automatically adjusts on the fly. Sometimes your camera will see problems that don't really exist. The white backdrop confuses the camera sensors as if it is over exposed so now your camera will fail to give you what you are trying to achieve. You will end up with a underexposed light. The camera really has a hard time differinciating the lighting so using the grey card will calabrate the light meter for the perfect exposure. Focus on the grey card and then shoot. This will save so much time with retouching.

Scouting out the area

E

I think It is very important to scout out the area where a photo shoot is going to take place. You can gather ideas and spots that will help bring out the photo. Even though the light will be different on the day of the photo shoot it is a great way to get a perspective on what to expect from the background and what you can expect the client to do. Although I love a great background, we do not appreciate the idea of the background compensating for poor photography. It is very easy to take a nice picture when you are standing in front of a waterfall with nature all around. But to capture the essence of you takes more work.
