Taking Candid Pictures

Monday, November 6th, 2006

So many people are buying digital cameras these days and making it so easy to take photographs.   Some pictures people take are posed and not really showing the mood, or personality of the subject. Professional photographers use special lighting, props, and pose their subjects. So how does the ordinary person capture a subjects true personality and emotions.

Christine Peppler says in this online photography article: “Some shots don’t require posing. Many of the most meaningful shots are taken as subjects interact or are engaged in an activity. From images of children at play, a spouse reading the morning paper, a parent and child talking, or grandma gardening these are the moments that reflect the true personality of subjects.”

Photography of Fall Colors

Monday, October 30th, 2006

Anytime is a great time to get outdoors and photograph spectacular scenery, but Autumn with all the fall colors is awesome. Colors range from shades of red, yellow brown and a full spectrum of color.

New England is the most extraordinary state for fall color, but New York, Pennsyvnia, and Ohio are fantastic, as well. It doesn’t matter where you go to take your photos the best place is what is most easiest to get to. You can even come back to the same spot at different times of day. Try morning, afternoon, and evening to get different lighting effects.
