Everyone wants to show off beautiful photos on social networks - not only endless selfies to post on Instagram, right? But what if there is no money for an expensive photographer, special equipment, too, but you still want beautiful pictures? Arrange a photo shoot yourself, of course! And if you think that this is too complicated, you are mistaken, for this you only need desire, our advice and a camera, and if your friends also decide to participate, it will be great!
Choose the theme of the photo shoot
Subject - this is the main thing in the photo shoot, in addition to the technical side. You can come up with the whole concept of a fairy tale about Cinderella, wearing a graduation gown, making a photo session in the style of Marie Antoinette, buying cakes in a nearby store (and then eating them all), having a photo session, a pajama party or just an ordinary photo shoot in the background where the main thing is not entourage, and you yourself
Choose time and place
You can take pictures at home, using all rooms, you can take pictures in a park or any other location, in a cafe, after discussing a photo session with the owner, and in any other place - agreeing on a location is not as difficult as it seems. The main thing to remember is a simple truth - you need to take pictures in the morning or in the afternoon, but in no case from 12:00 to 14:00, because the sun is at its midle, and your photos will be illuminated
Camera selection
For non-professionals who take the first steps in photography and do not plan to devote too much time to it, a budget DSLR camera is ideal. It will be quite enough to get great pictures from birthdays, children's parties, other significant events. For the very first shots, you can use the preset automatic mode, and if you want more over time, you can always study the settings and find a few more modes for different shooting conditions.
Minuses
1.Digital cameras to take a picture take some time to process and save the photo before the next frame can be taken, but in modern cameras this drawback is eliminated, since the process of processing and saving the picture takes a split second and practically does not affect the speed of work . Some models of modern digital cameras are capable of doing up to 60 frames per second while maintaining maximum resolution
2. If you are going on a trip, then you need to stock up on carriers for a large number of photos. Here, the film will cost less than memory cards, but the film can be used only once, and memory cards will last a long time, so that for several trips they can justify their value. Film cameras use less battery power than digital cameras, so you can take longer to take longer on a single charge.
All of these shortcomings fade in comparison with the advantages of digital cameras. Partially, the advantages have already been described (payback of memory cards with prolonged use and the ability to preview and edit pictures on a computer before printing)
Pros
1.Digital cameras have displays that allow you to clearly see the upcoming frame. The display provides convenient access to the settings and displays the current camera settings, battery status and free memory. On the display, you can view the captured material, and if the pictures did not work out, you can take them again, which is impossible with a film camera. If the photo turns out to be blurry on the film, you will only know about it after you print it. Digital cameras have many settings and filters that can improve the quality of pictures or give photos artistic effects.
2. Modern digital cameras have intelligent modes that can automatically focus, adjust exposure and depth of field. This simplifies and accelerates the work with the camera, while maintaining the quality of the resulting photos. If you are a beginner, automatic modes will be indispensable. For professionals, there is access to manual settings for all parameters.
3. A very useful feature of digital cameras is shooting video. Modern cameras allow you to record video in HD quality. A personal computer greatly expands the capabilities of a digital camera. It allows you to store, catalog, send pictures through any Internet services, record on any digital media and process the captured material
