#375 On this episode of The Beginner Photography Podcast, you will learn about the different metering modes for reading and seeing light on a camera, and how to use LED colored lights to practice balancing exposure, tips for improving creativity through setting personal rules and turning photography into a game. In addition, you'll learn about using flash to enhance lighting and how to assess the condition of a used camera before purchasing. Lastly, I cover shooting outdoors with flash, using ND filters, and shooting at high shutter speeds to combat light. Tune in to improve your photography skills!
THE BIG IDEAS
- Be Intentional on Location: Slowing down, setting specific intentions, and focusing on one aspect at a time leads to deeper, more creative images.
- Build Confidence Through Practice: Direction and posing feel natural the more you practice; improvement and confidence come from repetition, not just research.
- Gear Doesn’t Define Creativity: Starting simple allows you to learn what matters to your photography before investing heavily—great photos depend on you, not your camera.
- Adapt and Experiment Fearlessly: Treating photography as a game helps you turn mistakes into learning opportunities, encouraging growth and experimentation with each session.
