Portrait of an artist as a young woman
(Couldn’t resist the Joyce reference here.) These photos are of my cousin’s daughter, the same girl featured in a recent post about creativity. She stopped into my studio during the March Break and we did a shoot. I like taking pictures of people that tell something about them – I’m sure painting wil always be...

Prom portraits | battling the sun
Recently I was asked to go to a family’s home and take some pictures for their daughter who was all decked out for the prom. Prom photos are quite similar to wedding photos: you have a beautiful girl in a gorgeous dress, and her date in a tux. There was not a cloud in the...
Photography with a purpose

When you are doing work for a client, always find out what image or message they want to portray, and who the intended audience is.

Another way to add emphasis to your photos is to consider contrast and composition when capturing and editing your shots. Let’s begin by talking about the rule of thirds. The most common error I see in amateur photographer’s work is little emphasis due to centered photos. These photos can be quickly improved by some creative...
Taking Better Photos | Create emphasis (2 of 3)
Part one of the series talked about choosing an appropriate location for your photos while keeping the emphasis of your subject in mind. Part 2 addresses depth of field. Another way to create emphasis and make your photos great is to take control over your depth of field (DOF). DOF is the amount of your...
