Photographing People
These days, everybody takes pictures of people, regardless of what equipment
is used or the level of the photographer. In this program, you’ll see how to take
better pictures of people, whether these are formal portraits, family and kids,
group shots, or informal pictures of people. The discussions will cover some
camera controls, artificial lighting, posing individuals and groups, getting the
right expressions, working with various light conditions (e.g., mid-day sun),
positioning the subject based on the light, working in low light, and
understanding white balance.
The program will be educational and entertaining. It’s structured for anyone
who takes pictures, whether with a phone camera, a point and shoot, or a full-
featured DSLR or mirrorless. DSLR, mirrorless, and phone camera pictures are
shared in this presentation.
