Father Son Photography

My son and I have had the privilege of photographing several National Parks. Our photographs were possible because others were willing to share their knowledge with us through books, magazines, and podcasts. It is now time for us to return the favor. We hope the information we provide about our equipment and techniques will help improve your photographic skills. If this is your first visit, please start reading from the bottom of the page. Happy shooting!

Flash'em...

When shooting photographs of people outdoors it is often a good idea to use flash. The flash fills in harsh shadows on the face or helps illuminate a person standing in the shade. Most point and shoot cameras will automatically adjust the output to balance the flash with the daylight. Digital SLRs have flash compensation that allows the photographer to adjust the amount of light hitting the subject. Give it a try the next time you're taking photographs at the family gathering or graduation party.
