Photography Tips From Fine Art Photographer Huntington Witherill

www.silberstudios.tv Fine art photographer Huntington Witherill joins us today on the Marc Silber show to share tips about photography and his views on the process as a whole. He reminds us that it is important to focus on the process of being the photographer rather than constantly looking to get the next photograph or image. A passion for the medium is one of the most important components—being engaged and passionate about anything takes a lot of patience, persistence and hard work. Huntington also advises people to get rid of preconceptions when going out to a location to shoot photos. It’s easy to carry a preconceived idea when you’re going to a specific place, but you might happen upon something completely different that creates an amazing photo. As for practical tips, he believes that 2D design classes are helpful for visualizing composition for photographs. Learning how to arrange forms and lines is useful for creating balance and a sense of purpose in a photograph.

Digital photography!

One of the art forms that are taking the world by storm today is digital photography.  You may like pictures as a way to keep memories, to make money or you may like to take them just for personal reasons, but with technology affecting how pictures are taken, the experience is all the more fulfilling.

Anything can be the subject of a photograph.  The way it’s taken can be the bane or the boon of it all.  There are also no rules governing taking pictures of scenes, like what goes on in the streets, etc.  The best way to capture what life is all about is just by taking to the streets and taking photographs of the places and people around.  Armed with a digital camera and a large capacity memory card, you can shoot away at anything and capture something great.

You do have to familiarize yourself with a locality before you take pictures of anything or anyone.  For example, you can’t just go out to a playground and take pictures of kids at play.  While that might be a good subject, it’s claimed to be illegal in many parts of the country.  You do have to ask for the permission of the parents before you get click-happy with your digital camera.

You can start by taking pictures of a public event.  When there’s some kind of festival going on, it’s easier to take pictures and people are more comfortable to have their picture taken.  If, in case, some people find it objectionable that you took their picture, the beauty of having a digital camera is that you can show them that you’re deleting the photo on the spot.  This way, you won’t have to be stuck in the middle of an argument, ending up with a bad experience and no good photos to show for it.
