Practice Makes Perfect

PracticePractice, practice, practice

Since you are using a digital camera you have the ability to take lots of pictures without the cost of film developing and hopefully some of them will be great. The more photos you take the better your chances of having at least one turn out brilliantly.

I’ve seen the photos — all the photos – from professional photo shoots. Generally most of them range from bad to OK. Yet professional photographers recognize the premise behind taking lots of photos, and quite literally will take more photos than “normal” people.

Professionals use more angles, more types of lighting, and move around more. Most of their photos are unexceptional. But on occasion they hit something, and get a great photo.

Shoot lots of photos. The film is free.
