NEW Camera NEW options!

Over the last weekend, I finally obtained a newer point and shoot camera.  (to go along with my DSLR of course!)


The new camera is wonderful!  It can be used in rain, or shine and could go under water (which is a great feature!).  Even though the camera is brand new, and it is a sport-point-and-shoot camera, it still takes wonderful photographs to treasure as well as provide a durable outer cover to protect photo shoot appointments in the rain.

You may be asking to yourself....

What kind of photos can be taken in the rain?  How can this help enhance a rainy day photo shoot I had planned for a sunny day?

Although rain my be annoying (especially if it is down-pouring or a thunderstorm, in which case photography outdoors would NOT be advised or safe), it can offer some different options.  You can be wearing matching outfits, and have an orange umbrella to bring out lighter colors in your pictures.  For examples, if you are interested in a couple/engagement photo shoot and it happens to be raining, how cute could it be to have the couple under the umbrella smiling at each other (or even kissing for that matter!).  I can imagine a scene with trees in the background and a close up of a couple glowing at each other under an umbrella..the rain not seeming like it is bothering them.  As well as the rain can also help enhance outdoor surroundings.  The rain tends to bring  out colors in nature beautifully! 

You do not have to have a photo shoot in the rain, but....it can be a fun option.  Especially since services can be provided!

ISO for Beginners

As summer draws near, many of you may wonder how to tone down lighting or increase lighting in pictures.  Since my experiences with photography have increased over the last year, so has all of the technical aspects of my DSLR camera. 

Over Memorial Day weekend, I worked on shooting adults, toddler, and action photography.  Along with that, I took some 1 on 1 time to demonstrate the ISO settings on the camera. 

ISO stands for the sensitivity of the image sensor.  Higher ISO generally stands for low light situations (such as nighttime pictures and dark rooms), and opposite for lighter situations...

Here is an example of ISO settings in your camera.  We will work on Aperture another day! 

0.0 ISO

Increasing ISO

Steadily increasing ISO settings



The highest ISO setting...look at how bright this photo is!




0.0 ISO

Slowing decreasing ISO



As the ISO gets lower, the light gets darker

 WOW!  Can you even see that this is a plant??       

As you can see, ISO plays a HUGE role in pictures! 


I hope I can help you capture memories to last a lifetime.  You can see your child, yourself, or others (such as a group of friends), on this site by scheduling a photo session, getting your photo package, and sharing the memories with others.  Model release forms for those interested in sharing their photos on the web!
