Minimum Handheld Shutter Speeds

Photographers often want to use the slowest possible shutter speed while still achieving the sharpest possible shot when handheld. This is particularly important in situations where using a tripod is not feasible or when capturing fast-moving subjects. The answer to “how slow of a shutter speed you can use” when shooting handheld is a common question that arises among photographers, as getting it right can mean the difference between capturing a sharp, crystal-clear image and ending up with a blurry mess.

What Should I Bring to a Boudoir Session?

Prepare to unleash an explosive passion that will leave you and your clients in awe! As a masterful photographer, it’s essential to equip yourself with an array of tools and treasures to craft a mesmerizing boudoir photography experience. With unyielding confidence, you’ll capture unforgettable moments that radiate sheer allure and seductive elegance.

When it comes to boudoir photography, the right props and accessories can make all the difference. Consider incorporating luxurious fabrics like silk or lace to add a touch of elegance and sensuality to your images. Soft, flowing curtains or a vintage chaise lounge can create a romantic atmosphere, while strategically placed candles can provide a warm glow and add to the overall allure.

Building a Photograph with Intent #NSFW

In a world saturated with mediocre photography, it’s about time we address the elephant in the room: pressing that shutter button doesn’t magically transform you into a master lensman.

The presentation itself is around 30 minutes give or take four or five minutes. But there is an intro.

SHOOT NOTES – RONI JAMES NYC SUBWAY SHOOT

I’d been wanting to shoot in the Subways of New York for decades. And this shoot in particular. Unfortunately for me it didn’t work out exactly as I’d hoped but it was still fun and we did get good images. Despite the fact that my memory card became corrupted.

Never the less I was able to get some pretty good shots.

Given the permit laws in New York City I had to go very light in terms of the equipment I had with me as I highlighted in the video. So that meant not having my big lights. But we made it work.

Shoot Notes: Rebecca Buchanan Sunset Rooftop

I had set out to originally do this shoot with the gorgeous Gabrielle Romanello! As LA would have it on a Thursday afternoon however; she got caught in traffic and was running late.

Well as we all know the sun doesn’t wait for anyone. Not even me! Fortunately I had agency model Rebecca Buchannan, who I had been shooting earlier and we’d shot a stunning and the most sexy boudoir shoot she’d shot.
