Photoshoot and Beyond
A story I recently saw in one Facebook group is an example how NOT to treat your client, EVER. After a maternity shoot, photographer Desiree Genera publicly bashed on her client Katrina Ortiz. She recorded live Facebook videos, calling her out for her looks, among other things. And it all started with a simple message. […]

Category: Sports Photography Photograph: “Right Moment” by 테일러 An action shot like this requires the right amount of motion blur but at the same time freezing the action. Panning on the subject while keeping focus on the subject’s body and face was how 테일러 was able to capture this image. Originally shared with the Photofocus Flickr community right…
GoPro has announced that they are cutting another 270 jobs as a part of their restructuring program. They had layoffs before, as they were on a rough path for the past year or so. After a seemingly good start in 2017, it seems not everything has been going as planned. So, they are once again […]

Your camera’s auto white balance mode does a great job of reading the scene’s color temperature and choosing a setting from its’ collection of pre-programmed adjustments.
