Perform A Photography Background Check

Everyone should perform their own background check. This is especially true when it comes to photography. Always perform a photography background check before you press the shutter for every image you create. The more often you do, the more frequently you’ll create photos without distractions, brights hot spots, awkward mergers or other aspects that confuse the viewer as to what the subject is. It’s...

Hands-On Review Of The iPhone 11 Pro Camera For Photographers

As most of the world now knows, the latest iPhones have been announced and this year is all about the iPhone 11 Pro camera. The two huge new camera features are Night Mode (software) and the Ultra Wide 13mm lens (hardware) and I’ve just spent a week testing these features extensively in my iPhone 11 Pro camera review, seen here. In short, Night mode is all about taking better pictures in lowlight...

What Will I Be Given?

I’ve run hundreds of nature photography tours across the United States, traveling to almost every state doing so. Since 2014, I’ve lead numerous photo safaris to Tanzania and each year the number goes up. I continue to add more at the request of my participants. I’m now up to four safaris per year with plans to increase that number as time marches on. (Yes, it’s a good life!)   The reason...

The Benefit Of Photography With Friends

I suspect that many of you reading this article will be able to relate to the sentiment of preferring solitude when you’re out shooting. I don’t know why, but any inclination to socialize or be around other people when I’m out with my camera in nature vaporizes into thin air. It’s something that I constantly tell myself that I can’t be bothered with. However, that notion seemed to waver a bit recently...

When It Dawned On Me, Part 3: Sunset

Many of the principles I mentioned in Part 1 of this 3-part series that relate to sunrise hold true for sunset photography. What’s different between the two is threefold: the color temperature of sunset is slightly different in hue, the subject matter tends to be different and there will be more people with which to contend. Both sunset and sunrise produce warm tones. Depending upon the atmospheric...

My Fascination With Photographing Waterfalls

As someone who spent more than half his life growing up in New York City and living in some of the densest cities in the U.S., you could imagine my awe when I saw my first waterfall. It was in 2009 and I had flown out to Portland, Oregon, for work. A coworker took me into the Columbia River Gorge and our first stop was Latourell Falls. Up until that point, the closest thing to a waterfall that I...

Horizontal Versus Vertical Framing In Photography

One topic that I don’t often see debated in photography is the merits of horizontal versus vertical compositions when it comes to landscape photos. Both horizontal and vertical compositions play critical roles depending on the subject matter and the emotions you’re hoping to invoke within your viewers. It can be easy to make a blanket statement along the lines of, “Well, humans see things horizontally....

Mesmerize With Repeating Patterns In Your Photos

Recently I found myself walking around Liberty Station in San Diego. The weather was far more pleasant than what I had been living through in southern Utah, so rather than hop from air-conditioned store to air-conditioned car, I enjoyed a stroll throughout the premises. One of the first things I realized were the seemingly never ending, repeating patterns leading from the vestibules to the hallways....

When It Dawned On Me, Part 2: Midday

Last week, I covered some tips on capturing great images as the sun rises. This week, we’ll take a look at shooting during challenging midday light. From dawn to dusk, the light constantly changes. During mid-morning to mid-afternoon, the changes are less obvious and happen more slowly. The most dramatic ones occur early and late in the day. These periods are referred to as sweet light hours in that...
