Week One Assignment
Principle: Preparation
Task 1: Prepare and Shoot a detailed shoot (subjects can be whomever you like). Be sure to draw up a shot list, pick a NEW location, and scout it out. Exhaust the location!
Task 2: Begin assembling a posing guide
Post: your three favorite shots, and explain how detailed preparation helped… or was a challenge. Did you stick to the plan? Or did it go in a new direction? How did preparation help your confidence? How did the idea of exhausting a location help you discover new possibilities?
I took my grandsons for a bike ride and found this very colorful park. Of course, I saw it as a great place to take photos of these precious boys. I saw in my mind where I was going to pose them and thought I knew exactly how this was going to go!! I took them back a couple days later...and even bribed them with a Dairy Queen treat at the end of this shoot! I thought this was going to be short and sweet...they saw the park, and off they ran to do their thing! I also learned quickly that a park has many places to get in trouble with mergers, and color casts from the equipment. Wow...do I have a lot to learn! You can have a plan....but with little ones you better plan on being flexible (and having a silly assistant to help with the grins and giggles!!) Below are my favorite shots....This first one I put into photoshop and put in a fake blue sky......decided against it, and went for the sky as it is.
This last one...no need to critique...just for a laugh...Blake and Caleb are showing me THEY ARE DONE!! (just noticed someone has his shoes on the wrong feet!!)
