Being a photographer means you are capturing something special and meaningful for your clients. It means you have an artistic vision that must be told. Nailing your settings is part of your journey to capturing quality photographs but that alone won’t make your images stand out or be their ultimate best. We live in a day where digital photography is rampant and everyone ‘is’ a photographer who can afford the latest point and shoot camera. So how are you going to set yourself apart from the competition? How are you going to ensure that your images move people and inspire them?
Back in the ‘olden’ days of film photography we would rely on our labs to process our negatives with the gentlest of care, our labs would ensure that our final images had just the right amount of contrast, saturation and pop. Today being the digital world that it is many photographers have the impression that if you simply take a great shot that your work is done. But this is not the case. Digital photographs, untouched are your digital negatives and in these modern times Photoshop, Lightroom or you other editing software is your darkroom. Images need to be post processed to become their best. Digital images demand this final step and it is in this process of editing in your ‘digital darkroom’ that you are able to bring your artistic vision to it’s final, most beautiful form. This final step is one of the most important steps you can take because this final step is going to be the one that represents your work, represents your artistry and style. Defining your editing style is extremely important to becoming the unique artist that you envision yourself to be.

Set up a just-for-fun creative session; possibly themed. Work with a model that lets you have full creative control and let yourself play comfortably with settings, posing and style so you can express your inner-artist voice.
Make some new props or hit some garage sales, thrift shops and second-hand stores to repurpose some finds. Your money often goes to a really good cause.Many of the props I use in my studio have come from Goodwill & Habitat for Humanity stores. Things like old doors, drawers and chairs can be shabby chic to become amazing props for your studio and at a fraction of the cost of buying them new.
If you are with me and you learn best by having someone teach you then check out my Camera101 class mentioned above. It’s offered both in person and online with computer screen share opportunity. I LOVE teaching this class because I have been in your shoes and I KNOW how frustrating it can be to not understand the exposure triangle. I spent YEARS at the beginning of my career there. It’s nothing to be ashamed of but please, if you’re in that spot, take steps today to get out of it. Doing so will change your life! My class was designed to take the mystery out of these settings. The class is easy to follow, full of simple to grasp but solid concepts and is VERY visual..jpg)
