As a photographic technique, double exposure (or m As a photographic technique, double exposure (or multiple exposures) has existed since the camera was first invented. But what was once old is new again, and this style has grown in popularity in recent years. We love how @jess.rreid has used the effect in this photo, making it alluring and conveying the feeling of trying to remember a now-foggy memory.
New podcast alert! Sony Alpha Ambassador and tim New podcast alert! Sony Alpha Ambassador and time-lapse aficionado @lifeofmikeza stepped up to our mic to discuss what it was like to leave his corporate job to explore a creative field. What’s more, we got some valuable insights he gained from his long-term photo-series, as well as his method for crafting the perfect adventure photo. Click the link in bio to join the conversation.
The difference between bland and exceptional comes The difference between bland and exceptional comes from 5 simple #photography #rules. 1. Angles. Think before you shoot. Move around your subject and consider all your options. 2. Shoot through something. Try something new and get creative with it. 3. Think opposite. If you shoot the same as everyone else you’ll have the same images as everyone else. 4. Lighting. Try gain some natural light, and if the lighting is really bad just wait until it isn’t. 5. Framing. Shoot with a story in mind then frame your subject so that the story doesn't get lost in translation. Consider placing objects inside the frame to help bring your story to life. Thanks for the photo inspo @funlifedesignlab #ishootwithorms

Posing people can be tricky, especially if they ar Posing people can be tricky, especially if they are nervous and even more so when you are at a wedding and pressed for time. There are a few clever ways to make this a little bit easier. 1. Ensure one point of touch to avoid your couple looking distant. 2. Focus on appendages for relaxed body frames. 3. Create physical tension to extract the most natural appeal to a photo. Got tips to add? Share them in the comments. 📸 @bychelsey
