Points of view
Do you want to know more how to capture stunning urban photos?
Solving some several doubts about it and also try to clarify how you can make better in your urban photography.
Well, that's why I'm here this week for.
Today: Points of a view.
Highline, New York city (By me)
There's a lot of work outside about urban photography, but if you have a real look inside it, you'll see that every professional has a different opinion about it. what's really matter when you take a photo about architecture and people on the street.
Sometimes, it's more valuable to take some shots about lines and textures that just capture movements on the street.
Urban request open your horizons and leave your camera on...all the time.
You can capture great colours and shapes inside buildings and also at the same time to create histories with people and buildings on the street.
Remembering that composition here it's more about angles in one photo.
That's why I like to call points of view. Everyone has a different perspective about what is interesting.
When I capture urban photography I always have in mind where I am and what photo can bring me inside the point what I am photographing in.
To explorer new visions you need to see yourself "buying" the photo, or explaining better: buying the idea that you just got it in front of your lens.
Tip: try to understand the concept behind the scenario. Don't judge and the most important: have fun outside discovering places and people.

People and scenarios.
In photography, specifically shooting people,
being creative requests more than skills and also needs a good quantity of
working time beyond of your on knowledge.
Is everything about composition?
By Daniela Riego
Photographing people is one of the trickiest subjects to understand and
master. To shoot people, sometimes it’s a chance to sneak away
from the hustle and bustle of the beauty and create something truly epic for
clients.
Let’s talk about ideas.
If you’ve ever found yourself wishing you could create more dynamic,
interesting, and unique portrait shots, then read on to learn about some of the
things that can keep your shot game fresh and new.
Photographing
people faces two major obstacles, they are: the reflections and the
composition.
Thinking about it,
I'll give some tips for useful accessories to make your photo professionally
and more efficiently without spending too much, or rather without throwing
money in the bin.
If you are trying to make the most money possible from the sale of your portrait photography you MUST have excellent photos.
Inside the studios
Background:
Can be white, black or colourful...be creative, that's my advice.
Make sure what are you be photographing:, respect skin tones of models, Collections, lights and idea of composition; otherwise your session can go wrong.
Reflectors and lights:
The key here is to make sure some of your light is hitting the sparkly
face(s) so that you get a nice sparkly bokeh in the background. I also advise
using lights in a right line or reflective surfaces during the shots. I mean, who
doesn’t love a double dose of beautiful eyes or unique expressions?
Stands:
Stands for to put models in ( sometimes a detail in scene can make a huge difference).
Positioning models: This
amazing technique can salve your work. is the secret weapon of many portrait photographers. Just a small pinch of positioning can be molded and
used to make models more beautiful and clear in front of your camera.
Keep an eye on the
end result of your work. Be sure to compare your photos with the more
experienced photographers, it is common to miss on the tone of skin leaving
too yellow or white.
When in doubt,
search too!
Be creative! With
experience you will see that seemingly useless objects can save many hours of
work.

Be creative and conquer more clients
In jewellery photography, specifically shooting rings,
being creative requests more than skills and also needs a good quantity of
working time beyond of your on knowledge.
Is everything about exposition?
By Daniela Riego
Photographing rings is one of the trickiest subjects to understand and
master. To shoot that kind of jewellery, sometimes it’s a chance to sneak away
from the hustle and bustle of the piece and create something truly epic for
clients.

If you’ve ever found yourself wishing you could create more dynamic,
interesting, and unique ring shots, then read on to learn about some of the
things that can keep your ring shot game fresh and new.
Photographing
jewellery faces two major obstacles, they are: the reflections and the
stillness of small objects.
Thinking about it,
I'll give some tips for useful accessories to make your photo professionally
and more efficiently without spending too much, or rather without throwing
money in the bin.
If you are trying to make the most money possible from the sale of your
jewellery, you MUST have excellent photos.
Reflectors:
The key here is to make sure some of your light is hitting the sparkly
object(s) so that you get a nice sparkly bokeh in the background. I also advise
using mirrors or reflective surfaces during ring shots. I mean, who
doesn’t love a double dose of diamonds?
Stands:
Stands for necklace, bracelet, earing and rings.
Black, white
acrylic: These are used commonly in jewellery and other small product photography to
create stunning reflections underneath your products.
Positioning wax: This
amazing product is the secret weapon of many jewellery and coin
photographers. Just a small pinch of positioning wax can be molded and
used to make rings, coins and other small items stand up on end. It is
virtually invisible to the camera.
Keep an eye on the
end result of your work. Be sure to compare your photos with the more
experienced photographers, it is common to miss on the tone of gold, leaving
too yellow pieces or silver with metal face.
When in doubt,
search too!
Be creative! With
experience you will see that seemingly useless objects can save many hours of
work.
