Creating Photography Art - My Biggest Question
The biggest question that I have received from creating photography art is what camera am I using? Picking the right camera for you takes experimentation along with budget.
I decided to go with SONY Alpha line because I am not a very big size wise of a person and I watched my fellow photographers agonize with pain when doing a long photoshoot like a concert. I also tested some of the other brands and the bulkiness and the weight on my hands and wrist had me thinking more about the camera than the shot.I wanted to be sure to have something that was high powered for me to get the images that I wanted but not to break my wrist.
I shoot in RAW to get the highest quality picture available. I am ok with having multiple memory cards because of the size demand for this setting.
Below is an image from the Oh My Bermuda series that has been created as photography art.
My first love as an artist is oil painting and then photography. So I decided to marry both worlds.
I am partial to one brand of camera because of the many lens that I own (Nikon/Nikor). I personally prefer Black and White high speed film like Tri-X, (Showing my age here!); but now with power of software and hardware. I am venturing into new worlds of “Joy”. My question to you “Yvette”; how do you plan your shoots? Do you walk the site/location taking light measurements along with your client or do you let the “Passion” of the mood sweep you away? Personally, I have found both to be @Inspirin"!
