Fill flash is a photography technique in which the camera flash is deployed to illuminate the darker areas of an image, especially the subject. When the subject is underexposed due to the deficit of sunlight and other lights or sometimes due to the backlight, fill flash is supplemented to correctly expose the subject. A fill flash can even spice up the outdoor photos. With the integration of both natural light and flash, you can bring out the optimal output. The major problem you will encounter while using fill flash is when ambient light is behind the subject. This will result in a silhouette- a dark shape of the image that you will view. In order to derive the best upshot, you can go for a 30% flash and 70% natural light. Don’t hold back to experiment by dialing down the flash as it will let you understand and figure out the correct ratio.

1.Setting the exposure using the histogram the best way to tell if your exposure is correct is by consulting the histogram. Learn how to read it and make the necessary adjustments and until it indicates a proper exposure. 

2.RAW Color, contrast and detail are all affected by this compression. To put simpler, shooting in RAW format will give you access to the full capabilities of your camera.

3.Selecting focusing points manually that’s why learning to change the AF points manually is a useful skill. It will improve focusing accuracy and reduce chances of missing important shots.

4.Learn all AF modes AI- Servo AF mode won’t lock the focus and it will constantly refocus. AI focus will automatically from one -shot to Servo if it detects movement in the frame.

5.Aperture Priority This is a great setting for shooting portraits with a blurred background.

6.Shutter Priority fast moving subjects can be shot in this mode, but it’s also very useful for low light situations where you don’t want the shutter speed to be slower than what you can use to shoot hand held.

7.Control motion blur Motion blur often comes from using a shutter speed that is too slow for holding the camera in your hands.

8.Manual White Balance All digital cameras have a few white balance presets.

9.Drive Modes It great for studio work or when shooting anything you have complete control over. CL is great for portraits when you have an expressive model and don’t want to miss any interesting faces. 

10.Metering modes There are three metering modes in most cameras, each with a specific job. They have different names depending on camera manufacturer, but essentially they behave the same. 

11.ISO  Lower values are great when there is plenty of light to work with. Higher ISO values are needed for working in low light.

12.Auto-ISO not fond of any auto setting, but auto ISO will help you when shooting hand held.

13.Exposure compensation It is a +/- scale that will tell your camera to increase or decrease exposure, depending on your needs. It works for all semi-automatic modes (P, Av, TV) and will influence exposure in increments. 

14.Manual exposure You can’t call yourself a real photographer until you’ve learned to control every little setting on your camera.

A DAY AFTER THE RAIN

It refers to the capture of an entire image scene that has both bright highlights and dark shadows. In other words, instead of capturing highlights that are clipped and pure white, and/or shadows that are lost to total darkness, your image depicts visible detail in all areas. For me it was kind of hard, but I got the hang of it. I troubled on finding the right modes because my pictures would come out black. I did find the editing fun. Just seeing how the colors would change. I did not have to put clouds because there where already clouds. I learned a new tool which was to make things lighter. What I would do different next time is learn more about the -1 -2 0.

 

I would say the subject is the girl, I like the background it looks smooth and clear color. The shadow also caught my eye. The color of the bow as well makes her pop out more. She has a mysterious face which makes the photo more interesting.

I would say it was sorta achieved, It was hard because I didn’t know how the camera works with lighting. But it was fun to do.

Henri Cartier Bresson, the legendary photographer. He was know for his mastery of capturing the “decisive moment” in his photographs. His work revolutionized street photography and documentary photography. He had a unique ability to capture candid and spontaneous moments, often focusing on the human element in his compositions. His photographs were characterized by strong composition,  geometry, and a keen eye for capturing fleeting moments of everyday life. His black and white images are timeless and continue to inspire photographers today.

1.There are two kinds of power packs: symmetric power packs and asymmetric power packs.

2.The most common types of light modifiers are umbrellas and soft boxes.

3.Stands and grips are used to support your light sources, strobes, and even light modifiers or backdrops.

4.Monolights, on the other hand, are compact substitutes for a power pack/flash head combinations. Their size limits their power, but they are often desired for their portability.

5.If you’re shooting outdoors or with complicated modifier setups, you are going to need a lot of power to overcome the sun or the light loss caused by the modifiers.

6. White umbrellas offer a wider spread of reflected light, and gold umbrellas produce a warm tone.

7.Softboxes on the other hand are usually square or rectangular. They are lightweight boxes that come with a reflective inside and a translucent front.

8.Most strobe lights allow you to completely remove the reflector and attach different kinds of light modifiers.

9.Snoots are conical shaped tools that narrow the distribution of light. These can be used to produce a very focused, harsh light.

10.Whichever path you take and whichever brands you choose when building or expanding your lighting setup, be sure you get the best quality for your budget. Also, choosing items with widely available accessories and parts will help you out later.

This one of Aaron Siskind work his work is like different shades of grey. And a lot of detail shapes.

I’m representing the product Carolina Herrera. Fans of the brand Carolina Herrera, or for those that want a perfume that smells good. I expect to see this advertisement when people go search up the product and see this. The kind of lighting I’m going to use is backlighting. The props I need were flowers and the perfume.

 

I choose these three because I love the product Uggs and I liked how they did there ad very colorful and it shows what they sell. Tory Burch I like how they showed the purses but also the shoes. Also coach is my favorite store, I like how they showed a girl wearing a purse, it makes me want to buy that purse.
