Lover of the Light

Who doesn't love a good challenge? I certainly do, especially when it comes to learning something new and developing my skills. As a graphic designer, I'm always looking for trends and inspiration and the same applies to my photography. I thought that I had been training my eye to seek out beautiful light, but as it turns out, my eye has been training me.

Our eyes interpret light differently than our cameras, so naturally, we get frustrated when we're not able to capture in camera what we see before us. Digital photography and post-production software has made it a lot easier to shoot what we see, but there are tricks and techniques that can be applied in-camera to save time and improve your end result.

As a lover of light, I'm challenging myself to seek out difficult lighting situations. My biggest struggle will be shooting in low light when I don't have access to a tripod. Nothing is more frustrating to me than having to trash a blurry photo due to camera shake. 

Will I have to bring my old 35mm film camera out of retirement for a little back-to-basics training? Perhaps. But really what I have to do is just keep practicing and stop avoiding situations that require a little more thought and time.
