Today I want you to play with moving around as you photograph People. If you’re shy, grab a friend. If you’re Bold, ask a stranger. But try to vary where you place your subject within the photographs. Get close up and just photograph a portion of them within the frame, compose them off to the side or down in the bottom corner of the image. Pay attention to the environment included in the image around them. Shoot from high, low and sideways…Just MOVE!!! Get some cool funky shots and send them to me! Have fun!!

Understanding this simple photographic rule will enable you to know what settings to set your camera at when shooting outdoors on MANUAL setting during Daylight hours…Without a light meter. I want you to Google ‘The Sunny 16 Rule’. You’ll get the basic concept and then I want you to take your Digital SLR, set on ‘M’ (Manual) so you can adjust your ISO, Shutter Speed and aperture depending on the daylight that is available. When you start taking your test images the exposures should be very close to correct if you’ve applied the correct settings for the available light.

So there is no better way to describe todays assignment then to just visually show you what I mean. This week Jacob L. (view more of his work HERE) and I did a One on One Photography Workshop down at Pikes Place Market! I set Jacob out to photograph one subject from as many various angles as he could think of. Picture this area of Pikes Place if you’re familiar with it..How many other angles can you think of to shoot this scenario? I can think of at least 4 other distinct angles…
The goal is to see a situation in a unique manner that others may not see or think of. It will help set your images apart.
Here are Photographs that Jacob took. Notice how he didn’t rely on a zoom lens to give a different perspective, but picked up his feet and moved himself around his environment. He was up high, down low and to the sides! Great job Jacob and thanks for going for it! Hope you learned some valuable lessons to take with you!
