Frank gives a really good shooting tip:

This past Sunday, Frank Veronsky gave an outstanding workshop  "The Basics of Lighting People/with model" at his studio in Belle Mead.(see the post below)
I've attached a short video of Frank explaining a very important point when shooting people.  I know you'll find it helpful. It's a bit blurry at full screen. Sorry about that.

Share your photos with your subject. . .

Today's tip is simple but important.  When you're taking pictures of well, anyone, it helps to show them the back of your camera from time to time. They'll appreciate being part of the process and you'll get better images in the end.

This is my friend Andrew Wilkinson shooting a model at Frank Veronsky's "The Basics Of Lighting People / with Model" class this past Sunday. Frank is doing a series of classes with the Princeton Digital Photo Workshop. You can find all the information at www.princetondigitalphotoworkshop.com.

Fear is our biggest obstacle

Another question to ask yourself. "What's worse. Asking if it's OK to take his picture or going home without it?"  Fear works both ways.  Don't let it stop you from making that click.

Today's photo tip, "When you think you're close, get closer. . ."

Use your legs and move in.  As Rick Sammon always says, " The name of the game is to fill the frame".

Good advice.
