Some tips for travel photography
During my seminar "being creative and getting the shot" there is a lot of attention for some parts of travel/street photography and people respond very positive to this part of the seminar, so I thought it would be fun to share some tips on the blog, I hope it will help you out on your next trip/vacation to take better shots. And remember that ALL these techniques also translate to model/fashion/glamour photography.
Some images from PSW
Without any doubt PhotoshopWorld is for me one of the highlights of the year.
PhotoshopWorld is switching between the east and west coast and is held twice a year.
To say that PhotoshopWorld is just a tradeshow is a big understatement, yes there is an expo floor with a lot of booths, but most of all PhotoshopWorld is about teaching, imaging being taught by the best instructors in the world in Photoshop, Photography, Lightroom etc. you will be blown away by the choices you have. During the day there are seminars from early morning to late in the evening, and then there are the parties, midnight madness, portfolio reviews, panels and so much more.... it's mind boggling. The main attraction of PhotoshopWorld is that the teachers are not the "demo-ers" you normally see at trade shows, imaging seeing Scott Kelby, Matt Kloskowski, Dave Black etc. at work on the Expo floor in the booths explaining their tricks, you feel what I mean ? 😀
The DOORhof is always open EP3
Today the first episode.
Expect interviews with great photographers/instructors like Scott Kelby, Lindsay Adler, Alan Hess, Brad Moore, Jay Maisel, Jim Divitale, Cliff Mautner, Dave Cross, Moose Peterson, Dave Black, Richard Harrington, Pete Collins, Matt Kloskowski, RC (spread out over both episodes).
Get your kicks on Route 66
Driving along route 66 and getting great images is not that hard as it turned out, but some planning is necessary to get the killer shot (and a lot of luck)
Styling by Nadine
Styling can make or break a shoot. A model can be absolutely stunning, which makes every shot successful, even if it's styled pretty basic. But if the model has guts and the styling is top-knotch then everyone can be a model. Even if you're one of those absolutely stunning models, after 5000 photo's it does get boring.
Why you should trust the meter
After my workshops a lot of students switch to the use of a light meter.
They see how quick it is to setup the lights, meter the background, make sure there is detail in whites or blacks and much much more but that's "only" part of the story. Let me tell you two stories that are real life stories and will show you a different side of why to use a meter....
