Outdoor Flash



Fill in flash. Outdoors in daylight you can use flash to add a catchlight to eyes so they don't look dead but have a sparkle.


Fill in flash. For portraits on a sunny day you can use flash to remove harsh shadows, maybe from a hat. Just force on the flash.

Create a black background in daylight by manually under exposing to produce a dark or black picture then use flash to light the subject.

Photo Editing



Beyond The Camera






It could be said the photo can be taken a second time on the computer!

A PC auto correction could correct your photo in one click.


Tight cropping can help remove unwanted objects from the image.

Cropping for a better composition can easily be done on a PC. Remember that if the image needs to be printed at a later stage then the cropped image aspect ratio needs to match the paper to avoid big white boarders to one set of sides or more unwanted cropping in the printing process.

Groups. By taking more than one image at a time, if someone blinks or looks not quite right then swap their eyes, face or head from another image on the PC.

By taking photos in colour you have the choice to keep them in colour or change it or some of it to black and white on the computer.




Remove spots and blemishes.

Whiten eyes .

Smooth out lips.

Reduce lines under eyes.

Colour hands or skin in general to match face foundation or just colour to look tanned.

Street Photography


Great for travel photography.


When visiting a new town or city, we look more at details that we would not normally see.


Candid shots not posed.


People and animals.


Capture ordinary observations that others miss.


Public place / domain.





Normally black and white but also some colour.


Society and its surroundings.


Urban / city decay.

Atmospheric weather.

Legally you can photograph someone in a public place and even have it published without their consent, using an editorial release. If at the time of photographing things get nasty then this could lead to a civil disorder, which is a different matter. Good luck.

Black and White



By taking photos in colour you have the choice to keep them in colour or change some or all of the image to black and white on the computer.


By converting your images into black and white on the PC, contrast filter effect can be applied to make the colour tones quite different.

The main filters are red, green yellow, orange and blue.

When converting to black and white on the PC, red filter effect will make red tones lighter and make blue and green darker.

When converting to black and white on the PC, orange filter effect will make orange and red tones lighter and make yellow, blue and green darker.

When converting to black and white on the PC, yellow filter effect will make yellow, orange and red tones lighter and make blue darker.

When converting to black and white on the PC, green filter effect will make green tones lighter and make blue, orange and red darker.

When converting to black and white on the PC, blue filter effect will make blue tones lighter and make yellow, orange and red darker.

So a landscape with blue sky and some fluffy white clouds in black and white with a yellow, orange or red filter would produce a darker grey sky with fluffy white clouds.

Camera Gear Tips (What's in the bag)


All the gear no idea! Don’t waste money on expensive camera gear unless you are sure you need it, there is usually a cheaper alternative. It’s all about the picture. A good photographer with a simple set up will easily beat a novice with all the gear.

**********************************************************************************************************

Most people do not use half the features on their camera, if not any just leaving it on auto. Take photos using all the settings. Get to know your camera.

Compact, bridge, system or SLR. Compact and bridge cameras have a similar small size sensor.

The system camera has a smaller body to an SLR but when the lens is added, it’s not so small but more limited.

Camera shake. By placing the camera on a small, cheap tripod the cameras self timer can be used to help take blur free photos. The vibration control can be switched off to save power and avoid confusing the camera.

Filters were very popular with film cameras. Now most things can be done quite easily on the PC.


Filters that are still used today are UV, polarizing and N.D.

UV filters as the name suggests can cut out or reduce UV light, it can be left on the lens at all times to act as a lens protector not only from knocks but rather than you forever cleaning the front element of your lens and removing the multi coating.

Polarizing filter. Can reduce reflections and can make skies a darker blue.
ND filter. A neutral density filter will reduce the amount of light reaching the cameras sensor. Useful on a bright day when you want a slow shutter speed to blur moving water.

Reflectors can be used to bounce light back. Great for backlit portraits.

A reflector can help remove shadow like fill in flash but is less harsh and more controllable.

Fast lens. Zoom lenses tend to be slower than prime lenses, but more versatile.

SLR’s and lenses. Most people tend to use the same one lens the majority of the time.


Tripod. Great for reference point for you and your group when you have stepped forward to make composition adjustments.


A reflector can be anything, a white card, silver car windscreen blind or a pop up camera reflector. A white reflector will be more natural, gold more warming while silver will have the brightest reflection it will also look the coldest.


Zoom and prime lenses. A zoom lens can vary its focal length. A prime lens has a fixed focal length, great if you always do a certain sort of photography.


A shower curtain can act as a big, cheap light diffuser.


The problem with digital SLR's is that if they are not full frame then there is a magnification ratio which is great for making telephoto lenses more powerfull but they also make wide angle lenses less wide. For true wide angle you need full frame.


Camera image stabilisation will help hold the camera steady in low light or using telephoto but if the shutter speed is not fast enough and the subject is moving it could blur. A fast lens will give a faster shutter speed so less blur all round.

Composition Tips


Composition. Rule of thirds. Try not to put people, objects or horizons in the centre of a picture but off centre.

Merger. Avoid things growing out of peoples heads. Don't just look at the ground but shift your eyes to the background.If there is a merger then move yourself.


Boarder mergers. Feet, heads, hands etc being cut in half by the edge of the picture. This can be caused by noy being close enough to the view finder, or problems with glasses. To fix this move back or zoom out.


A large aperture or small F number is great for blurred backgrounds in portraits.

A small aperture or large F number is great for adding depth of field to landscapes.

Frames. Pictures can be framed to give foreground interest. This can be anything, trees, windows, doorways even people.






The strongest lines for leading the the eye around the picture are curves in a "s" shape.

The cameras TTL metering is usually excellent but in a high contrast seen, by exposing for the highlights can add atmospheric shadows.

At night a slow shutter speed can record car tail lights as painted red lines. Make sure the camera is on a tripod or solid surface.
 

Sea, streams & waterfalls. Create a moody atmospheric picture where water is moving by slowing down the shutter speed.

Sunny day. If the subject is in the shade but has a bright background, set the exposure for the subject and keep the background overexposed.

Although we should focus on the eyes re-compose the portrait so the eyes are off centre and two thirds towards to top of the frame.


Overexpose a portrait by 1 stop to make skin tones brighter.


Tight cropping can help remove unwanted objects from the image.

Let colour lead your eye around the picture.

Lines can lead the eye around the picture.

Diagonal lines make a strong composition.

Shapes like triangles and diamonds make a strong composition.




Water is great for reflections, not just mirror calm lakes or seas but rain water puddles and wet surfaces.

Sunrise and sunset add a magical element when reflected off objects.

Tripod. Great for reference point for you and your group when you have stepped forward to make composition adjustments.


High key and low key. High key has more light tones, low key has more dark tones.

Blurring the background can easily be done with a wide aperture and a long zoom.

Flash Photography Tips


For more naturally lit portraits, if the camera is held vertically and the flash is to one side of the lens, make sure it is on top.

A reflector can help remove shadow like fill in flash but is less harsh and more controllable.


Any white surface like a white panelled door can be used as a white back drop, put a flash on it.

Bounce flash. Direct flash can produce harsh flat lighting with unnatural shadows. Indoor natural day light with or without artificial lights will produce a more natural picture but could give low light problems. Bounce flash has a more natural feel.

A shower curtain can act as a big, cheap light diffuser.

Create soft flash lighting by simply taping some tracing paper or film over the flash. For best effect make sure the paper is not touching the flash but bowed out.

Off camera flash can give side lighting to a face or object to give the picture more depth or a 3D effect.

Off camera flash. The flash gun can be triggered by the main flash if it is fitted with a slave. The limitations being loss of TTL metering, range of cameras main flash, not woring in bright light and being triggered by another cameras flash.

Off camera flash. By using the camera, flash gun and a flash lead the cameras TTL metering can be kept. The only limitation being length of lead.

Off camera flash. By using the camera, flash gun and a flash trigger and receiver(s). This system needs to be quite expensive to maintain the cameras TTL metering.


The flash fires at such a fast speed it will freeze action. It also fires at such a fast speed that that the camera shutter speed will not affect the flash exposure. Whether the exposure is 1/200 of a second or 30 seconds, the flash exposure will be the same. The only thing that the shutter speed will do, is alter the ambient light. To alter the effect of the flash output the f stop or ISO will need to be altered. More ISO is more grain/noise. By setting the camera to around f8, you can go up or down on the f nuber to easily change the effect of the flash.

Weddings














To be a successful professional wedding photographer you should know business management, advertising, web development, computer technology, art and photography. Good luck!

Ask what type of wedding photos are required.



Traditional - posed photos looking at the camera.

Modern - reportage, photojournalist, documentary, tell a story, candid (fly on the wall).

Or a mix of both.

Go online and search for photos of the venue for ideas.

Visit the venue in advance.

When visiting the wedding venue take photos to add to the ones on the day.

Ask around to find out what are the most popular places to have photos taken.

Check out the direction of the sunlight.




Have a plan if the weather is bad. It may change later in the day for outdoor shots. Shoot more indoors at the service or reception, stairs, corridors, entrance of the buildings (bring a umbrella), in the car, or offer to shoot another day free of charge.

Get as many vital peoples phone numbers to help if someone is missing for a group shot.

Make a list so you don't forget anything on the day.

At the house. Close ups of dress(lace/stitching detail), shoes, garter, flowers.







Arriving at the service. Guests. The couple.

At the service.

After the service.

Bride and Groom

Bride and Bridesmaids

Groom & Groomsmen

Wedding Party

Family Members

Outside. Reception.

Wedding Breakfast Reception before the guests arrive.

The favours.

Cutting the cake.

Throwing of the bouquet.

First dance.


Position yourself facing the guests. A slow shutter speed, 1/2 second, a steady camera, and keep shooting. Hopefully you will get the couple illuminated by the guests camera flashes.













Groups. By taking more than one image at a time, if someone blinks or looks not quite right then swap their eyes, face or head from another image on the PC.








Guests - couples, groups, talking, smiling, laughing & dancing.

When shooting small children, get down to their level.








Make sue you shoot everyone. I like to shoot them with my Canon!
Go with any last minute changes and keep cool.

Children Photography Tips






Small Kids Portrait. Keep them entertained or get someone to entertain them, to get that magic smile.



High key lighting is generally better for children and older women.




Groups. By taking more than one image at a time, if someone blinks or looks not quite right then swap their eyes, face or head from another image on the PC.


Friday 25 March 2011

Portrait Photography Tips






To avoid blank facial expressions, make sure they know when you are taking the photo, say something like cheese, smile or 1, 2, 3.




Props can be a great way of bringing out someone’s character.




Focus lock on the eyes re-compose the portrait so the eyes are off centre. Rule of 3rds.




Posing. Posed shots hardly ever look natural. Take your time and wait for the person to relax and pose themselves. Sometimes a bit of direction is required.




Groups. By taking more than one image at a time, if someone blinks or looks not quite right then swap their eyes, face or head from another image on the PC.




Eyes. One catch light is more natural looking. Additional catch lights can be removed on the PC.















Most things photography wise have been done to death, except yours friends and family. So snap away.

Relax and gain trust of your subject by simply chatting before taking pictures.



Eyes. Try to have the same amount of white of the eye visible on each side.













When photographing someones portrait, focus on the eyes.






Make people look good. You can choose a coloured background to match their eyes.

Create a dreamy look by over exposing the portrait.

Formal group portraits. The informal shots just before and after the "formal" shot is to be taken can be fun and show peoples character more.

Flash & ISO. In low light conditions a low ISO will make the background darker and give harsh portrait lighting.

Flash & ISO. In low light conditions a high ISO will make the background lighter and make a more natural picture.

No flash & ISO. In low light conditions a high ISO means a faster shutter speed that can reduce the chances of a blurred image.

Reflectors can be used to bounce light back. Great for backlit portraits.

Although we should focus on the eyes re-compose the portrait so the eyes are off centre and two thirds towards to top of the frame.

Fill in flash. Outdoors in daylight you can use flash to lighten a backlit portrait. Just force on the flash.

Overexpose a portrait by 1 stop to make skin tones brighter.

For more naturally lit portraits, if the camera is held vertically and the flash is to one side of the lens, make sure it is on top.

A large aperture or small F number is great for blurred backgrounds in portraits.

A small aperture or large F number is great for adding depth of field to landscapes.

A reflector can help remove shadow like fill in flash but is less harsh and more controllable.

Make your subject standout by bluring the background.

When getting in close, use telephoto to flatter your subject.

Portrait, no flash & ISO. In low light conditions a high ISO means a faster shutter speed that can reduce the chances of a blurred image.



It could be better to have a low quality blur free  picture that a high quality blurred snap.

Portrait. To avoid the “Tin Soldier” look, turn the body.

Spectacle wearers. Position yourself, the glasses or the flash to avoid unwanted direct flash reflections.

Soles of the feet are not sexy.

Make people look good. This can be done before and after the photo has been taken. With clever camera angles, height and direction to the model, long legs can look longer, a looking up stretched neck can reduce a double chin. On the PC, spots, blemishes and wrinkles can be removed or reduced.


Tripod. Great for reference point for you and your group when you have stepped forward to make composition adjustments.


Any white surface like a white panelled door can be used as a white back drop, put a flash on it.

High key lighting is generally better for children and older women.

Low key can be great for showing men’s character lines.














Bounce flash. Direct flash can produce harsh flat lighting with unnatural shadows. Indoor natural day light with or without artificial lights will produce a more natural picture but could give low light problems. Bounce flash has a more natural feel.
Fill in flash. Outdoors in daylight you can use flash to add a catchlight to eyes so they don't look dead but have a sparkle.


A reflector can be anything, a white card, silver car windscreen blind or a pop up camera reflector. A white reflector will be more natural, gold more warming while silver will have the brightest reflection it will also look the coldest.

If needed, teeth can be cleaned to avoid extra work on the PC.

Eyes. Ambient light will affect the size of pupil. Too much light and the pupil will be too small. Too dim and the pupil will be too big. The pupil should be half the size of the iris.




Hands. Women with large manly hands. The back of the hand is fine for men but for women to be more flattering, the hand can be turned to show only the inside or outside edge of the hand.

A wonderful relaxed atmosphere and day. Happy to try anything I wanted as well as bringing forward his own ideas!

Andy is very passionate about photography and he made me feel very welcome. He was great to work with and the images were amazing. Would work with him again and again!

21 October 2015

Andy is a lovely chap, very easy to get on with and great with our little 10 week old baby. He has taken some lovely photos which we will cherish for ever.


9 Mar 2015

We had a wonderful day with Andy when we got married, and so many lovely photos now to look back at. He's so helpful and easy to get along with. Everyone commented on how you didn't really notice he was there, which was great for the candid shots! And he suggested having a photo booth at the hotel in the evening, which has given us lots of lovely portraits and family group shots. Go with Andy, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Andy :) Michelle and Liam.

Had a great shoot with Andy on Saturday. We did a variety of pictures in his home studio and also out on location both in a rural area and the town centre. He was also happy to take couple photos of me and my partner, which was really nice as this is not something I usually get the opportunity to do on a shoot. He also took some individual shots of my boyfriend too. He made us both feel really relaxed in front of the camera and spent lots of time making sure everything was perfect - we ended up shooting for over 5 hours! We had a great day.

Andy has been excellent in taking pictures for both myself with my various band activities and at the music festival I help at, Pitfest at Pitney Playing Fields. A great guy and real enthusiast, puts you totally at ease with his easy going manner. For a guy that is building his portfolio, I'd say you're getting an absolute bargain so give a call.

RE: anti-austerity march

Andy,


Thanks so much – I viewed your photos last night.

In my opinion, you have captured the ‘good-natured’ atmosphere of the day very successfully.
Some of your shots are excellent and worthy of a ‘wider audience’ – had you thought of down-loading them to one of the Union/TUC sites?

Reviewing your photos also reminded me again how much I enjoyed witnessing the ‘bizarre and whacky’ mixture of protesters on that day and it is heartening to know that in spite of our obvious cultural differences, we can still be united by a common cause.

Kind regards,

Nick
