Find your nearest Hooper Camera store Photo Tip Of The Month Pointers for Pleasing Portraits by: Bruce Stein There are many aspects to consider when judging what comprises a great portrait. First and most importantly, the photographer must have the patience to wait for a pleasing facial expression and the eye to recognize the right expression. Assuming you’ve mastered those aspects (I don’t have the patience). The technical aspect that eludes most amateur photographers is the lighting and today I’ll give you an inexpensive tip that will greatly improve the quality of your portrait lighting. If you look at the two samples you’ll see a big difference in the uniformity and overall quality of the light on my son’s face which I achieved by using a $20 flash diffuser in front of the built-in flash on my Nikon camera. (with diffuser) The non-diffused flash portrait has many bright or “hot” spots on his face, whereas the shot with the diffuser has a more even and softer lighting effect. Similar diffusers are available for the external flashes that are sold for most cameras. (no diffuser) Why print photos from digital? by: Dean Lawrence In this new digital age, we capture more digital images than ever before in recorded history. Some of us still use traditional film. Many of us are using digital cameras. Most of our young people are using cellular phone cameras. But what do we do after we capture those six billion photos taken last year. Are we uploading them to online social media sites like Facebook, Flickr, MySpace, or others? Do they stay in our cell phone only to be lost when we replace our phones every six months with the latest models? Are the cellular phone companies storing them forever for us? So now my images are online somewhere, I can share them via email, social media links, rss feeds, post on blogs or web sites. Decades from now, will my family have access to those memories? Will future technologies be compatible to show our current generations digital images? I myself find that I am shooting pictures of family and friends, clearing the media card off by uploading the images to my personal computer, then, maybe a few weeks later, burning a DVD so I can clear my drive. My images take quite a little journey after capture and often times the only person that sees them is me. Not good, and yes, shame on me. Check out this funny Video about Why We Print Digital Photos?
