Learning about Shutter speeds, f-stops and exposure

This weeks assignment and objective was to learn about shutter speeds and how it can drastically affect a picture! What does overexposed mean? What about underexposed!?!

Here is a sample of an underexposed image! In other words, not enough light was provided!

This shot clearly shows how this setting created an overexposed image!

Elk Grove Photography has kick started!

Theron H. looks like he's into this first day! Very excited for this group!

 Our students, a small class, but I few more will be attending next week! Welcome everyone!

And the famous Nick P. I see a bright future for Nick in this class!

Panning @ SAVA

In photography, panning refers to the rotation in a horizontal plane of a still or video camera. Panning a camera results in a motion. We went out to Laguna Blvd and made every car feel important by taking pictures of them as they rolled by, good times!

Portraits

This week we took on portraits! Since most of us do not have access to full studios, we made our own make shift studio with a sheet, remote flash and natural lighting. The results were amazing! This shot was taken by Danielle Johnson and also edited by Danielle in Adobe Elements! Much more to come!

Katina Goodson used a technique to shoot from above, emphasizing the face of the model! Great job Katina!
