What is Fine Art Photography and How to Do it?

Digital photography has changed the way people take photos, and how many are taking them. Anyone with a camera can be a photographer these days, and many of those want to be professional photographers or artists, though they can be the both. All over the internet there is a rise of those who are calling themselves Fine Art Photographers; so maybe it is time to look into what they are and how they are different to the usual photographers. Below is what I consider to be one of my fine art images. Home built in the 30s and then abandoned only a...

How To Create Two of the Same Person in One Photograph Using Photoshop

This is a fun twist on portraiture that can often tell a bit more of a story about your subject, by allowing them to reveal two or more sides to their personality. It’s an old photography trick used in the days of the darkroom, and now with modern technology can be done in minutes with a few simple steps in Photoshop. First you are going to need two or more photographs of your subject, so find yourself a victim to experiment on, or try a self portrait. The main trick to this technique is to get things set up well in the shooting stage so...

How to Photograph Swirling Splashes of Liquid

Shooting splashes is always great fun, even if it’s a simple image with a coffee cup and a falling piece of refined sugar. Plus, there is always so much room for experimentation for even more fun! When I made the “Empty Cup” image seen above, many people asked me how I shot it. And I thought it would be better to show you in a step-by-step breakdown rather then answer individual questions. So, here’s a look at how it was done. Props First of all you will need a solid background (paper or set of boards only will make things more...

It’s directed and narrated by Lange’s granddaughter,...

Queen Elizabeth II’s 94-year-old husband, Prince Philip, is making headlines today after he was caught on camera cursing at a photographer. The prince was at an event honoring the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain yesterday, where he was asked to pose for a group portrait with six surviving veterans.

How to Make a DIY Newborn Photography Background Stand

Have you ever wondered how professional newborn photographers get their backdrops so smooth and wrinkle free? Are they Photoshop masters? Do they have a team of highly paid assistants pulling the fabric? No. The answer is a DIY backdrop stand that costs less than $20 and that you can make in less than 15 minutes. When I first started in the world of newborn photography I used the tools that I had available. I would use a traditional background stand to hold the back of my fabric backdrops.

Photographer captures once-in-a-lifetime Las Vegas sunset

Hey everyone! Thanks for the comments (good and bad) about my image. It’s funny really – I almost didn’t share this, but I was pushed by some close friends to post online. The reason was because I thought people wouldn’t really believe this was a genuine shot and start criticizing the image for the wrong reasons – I mean, it looks fake, but it really is what happened. It was the glow from the sun that bugged me. There was such a fine mist falling on that part of the city that gave it such a brilliant glow. That...
