Training today was all about low light photography. I think the biggest failure of most family photographers and even amateur photographers is not overcoming low light problems. Flash drop-off, flash wash-out, or camera shake are the main culprits of crappy low light photographs. And everything can easily be fixed by using a tripod and changing a few settings.
Even though the weather wasn't all that cooperative we got to play outside in the dark and take photos of a fake crime scene. It made me really want to get out more on my days off and take more photographs. And on a totally related note - I've had two people contact me about taking photographs. One of them was for a fall wedding (after ours, thankfully). I'm pretty excited about that opportunity, so we shall see if she picks me as her photographer!! I've got a whole summer to brush up on my photographer skills and learn even more tips and tricks.
I'm not sure what tomorrow brings for training. It will have something to do with photography so I can already tell you now that it will be a great day!
