Photography Course Online - Release the Power of Your New Camera!

Photography Course Online - Release the Power of Your New Camera!

So, the Holiday Season is behind us. Hopefully, your gifts will have included a marvellous new digital camera that you just can't wait to use. If you are anything like me, within minutes you have that beautiful piece of equipment in your hands and are snapping away. Stop! This time next year, wouldn't you like to be able to say you took the most amazing and stunning pictures. Now is the ideal time to learn how to use a camera properly, and invest a little energy into following a photography course online.

It is fair to say that there is not a major step between ordinary pictures and potential masterpieces - it's just knowing how to do it that is the key. Importantly, it is not always necessary to own a top of the range SLR. Most modern digital compact cameras can be used to create memorable images.

Imagination is key. Once you learn to think like a photographer you will be surprised how inventive you can become. Try taking a shot from an extremely low angle and see the difference it can make from the same shot taken standing up.

Beautiful Story Telling With Modern Asian Wedding Photography

Beautiful Story Telling With Modern Asian Wedding Photography

The first thing to note is that Asian wedding photography is an interesting term which means more than photographing at an Indian or Pakistani wedding. It is the art of telling the story of the Indian or Pakistani wedding beautifully, artistically and unobtrusively.

You are likely to find that wedding photographers who specialize in Asian weddings offer a combination or reportage or photojournalistic coverage together with artistic couple portraits, but good Asian wedding photographers need to have far more than excellent reportage and portraiture skills.

Setting the Scene

To tell a complete story of your wedding day, your wedding photographer will need to be a story-teller and able to photograph the events, people and details in a way which sets the scene. Like the elements of a written story, the setting and mood needs to be conveyed.
