Waaaaay back about a year ago when I launched Lemon and Raspberry, I created a small, free ebook with 3 simple techniques to get better photos. It’s still available, but it probably needs a redesign, and frankly – I’ve found a more thorough replacement to recommend.
Our friend Maggie just released her eBook : How to Shoot your Kids!
It’s a quick and easy guide to taking better photos of your kids no matter what camera you have!
Maggie discuss all the NON-TECHNICAL ways to improve your photography – using images of her adorable 3 year old as examples. Just paying attention to the lighting and the composition can help your images so much more – even if you have no idea what an f-stop is.
“The secret to getting better photos isn’t in your camera manual. It’s not about the technical, it’s about the technique.”
I strongly believe that if you’re going to spend the money on a big fancy SLR camera, you owe it to yourself to learn how to use it. But EQUALLY important is to practice your composition, your interaction with your models and recognizing the best parts of your location.
Plus, included in this eBook are those techniques that can make your point-and-shoot camera photos truly impressive!
You can check out the table of contents and some page examples below:
No lie : My favorite chapter is when Maggie talks about the ‘tricks of the trade’ …. basically some little hints about how to get kids to smile more naturally and interact with you. So very important when you’ve got kids who may not be interested in getting their photo taken.
So, really … If your photos need a little oomph, take a few extra dollars and invest in this eBook. You do NOT need a fancy camera to get good photos. You do NOT need to shoot manually to get good photos. You just need to learn about a few factors to pay attention to.
Totally doable.
