Family Photography Insights

Thank you for stopping by.
I have a few major passions….writing, children (especially babies), and photography.
I do not however, have any education in photography.
I have been told many times I have a gift not only with children (many years as a nanny etc), but especially capturing them in candid shots that people love. I truly love it and the children respond well to me when I am taking pictures.
When I write, I write cute captions on websites, and would like to incorporate more (journals, notes to relatives etc). My true gift…is the written word.
I’m not sure if it’s worth it to learn scrapbooking?
I need to know the following:
With a digital camera, is a photography class or certificate definitely necessary?
What is the best digital camera to buy (under $1000).
Where do professional photographers print their actual portraits for their customers?
If you have any ideas, experience or any information….they are terrifically appreciated!
Cheers!

This summer, I would really want to be a wedding photog. I’ve been through my first semester in college and am learning lots. I want to try out my gear and my skill as a wedding photographer because I love photojournalism and portraits.
The only issue is when I ask someone about photographing at their wedding, the subject of my religious faith comes up. I am atheist. I’m respectful of the religious beliefs of others, but think it’s unprofessional to speak about my religion. Sometimes, depending on the client, it affects their decision, even if they were crazy about my portfolio and stuff.

that does a mix of traditional portraits and photojournalism

I use a Canon Rebel XTI. I am looking for a lens with good bokeh and clarity that will enable me to take good (candid) shots of (sometimes moving) people/children, particularly, as well as some posed portraits. I am looking for a lens that can stick with me for many years for its professional, or semi-professional quality.
Thank you to anyone who can help me.

If you have experience or even if you don’t what do you think of my level of expertise.
All criticism taken constructively.

Every so often I see people in the street ect that just look interesting I would love to do portrait shots of them. I am an older man and most of the interesting people are men but some women are nice as well. Have no interest in children as a model.
How do I go up to someone whithout them getting the wrong idea? My motives are only for portraits not anything else!

Looking for recommendations (or warnings!). I prefer the photojournalism style, but generally want great pics for a great price. Thanks!!

It’s a love story between a girl that is house watching for somebody and one of the neighbors. But in the final part of the movie we see that the love story was only in her head, the guy being married and awaiting a child. She gets submitted after attacking the guy’s wife, and gets out of hospital with everyone fooled she is better. Instead of taking her medicine she made his portrait sticking them on a door. Please tell me the name of the movie.

apart from the obvious “people”

Does anyone know of a great photographer in the southern CA area available at a reasonable cost? I prefer one who specializes in wedding photojournalism, both black/white and color. Many of the ones I’m finding locally seem to shoot in a cheesy and extremely traditional, posed style. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

i’m using an olympus e-510 (with tripod) and have tried using several domestic lamps for lighting. i’ve been struggling with tone and clarity in my photographs, in spite of adjusting manual settings repeatedly throughout my shoots.
i can’t afford expensive materials and would greatly appreciate any tips and or suggestions on how to use household items to create and reflect light on a subject.
thanks in advance!

I am not a professional photographer, it has just been a hobby of mine and I just recently decided I want to make a career out of it. So there will be 6 children in the family portrait that I am taking for a lady I work with. The children range in age between 5-15. I need ideas for poses, and just any suggestions that will help make my first real photo shoot a success!

I am getting married next June. Which is better for photography- the photojournalism style or traditional. My Sister got married 1 year ago and went for the photojournalism look but then we missed out on so many family photos. Any suggestion?

I mean in case of abstract arts …

I know about freelance work and wedding photography as well as industry and commercial photography but I don’t know anything about photojournalism and how it all works so I need help with what careers are out there.

Any tips on what settings I should use to achieve this???
