Looking For Advice From Photographers

Just looking for helpful hints/advice/creative ideas from other photographers. My sister in law is getting married, and asked me to take the engagement photos this weekend. I've done some baby/kid shots, some senior pics, and a lot of family vacations (candid). A little nervous and looking for some confidence :) Thanks!

Use a flash 99% of the time. if you've done baby's then parties should be a breeze. If you set people up in groups or shoot tables of people, do more than one shot. Get an extra memory card if your using digital or extra film.

When I taught photography what seems like a zillion years ago I always told students to turn the camera verticle -- something a lot of us forget to do at times.

Last time I did my friends wedding I bought 20 instnad film cameras and had people shoot pictures of each other then added that to the finsih book.

good luck

If you take pictures outside, an overcast sky is better than bright sunlight. I'm sure you already know not to have a light source behind the subject, but it seems a lot of people make that mistake. Any light that shines in the direction of the camera will screw up the shot (unless you're doing it on purpose). Think of how a person on a stage is lit with a spotlight, from behind the audience, so the light doesn't shine in everyone's eyes. Lighting is one of the most important factors which I'm aware of.

That's about all I can offer. Maybe try taking some practice pictures. Experiment with the camera features too, especially the zoom lens if it has one.

      Nateral remedies

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Kan-101

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.

      Is Caputo gluten free flour really free of gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Godfather! "Gluten-free" is not the same as zero gluten. The FDA standard for allowing the food industry to us the gluten-free label on a product is that it cannot exceed 20 ppm of gluten. That is safe for most celiacs but not for the subset of celiacs/gltuen sensitive people who are super sensitive. "Gluten-free" wheat starch products have been processed in such a way to remove enough of the protein gluten to comply with the FDA regulation but usually do retain some gluten and we usually get reports from some people on this forum who fall in the more sensitive range that such products cause them to react. Hope this helps. So, you may just have to experiment for yourself.
