I Found Photos by the Man Behind Lennon’s ‘Imagine’ in a London Junk Shop

Peter Fordham was a British photographer best-known for his music work in the 1970s. If you own a copy of John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’, his second solo album, you’ll be familiar with his work. Fordham was the photographer who took the picture of Lennon, sat at his white piano with a pair of headphones on, at Lennon’s Tittenhurst Park home where the 1971 album was recorded. It’s a classic of rock music photography, Lennon singing into a hard black mic set against a stark white room, and was included as a fold-out poster in the...

Portraits of New Mothers With Their Day-Old Babies

For the past five years, portrait photographer Jenny Lewis of Hackney, London, has been finding and photographing new mothers with their newborn babies within 24 hours after childbirth. She says her goal is to “capture the extraordinary bonding, warmth, and strength between mother and infant” as a natural mothering instinct kicks in. “I find the collection of images defiant and beautiful, challenging the expected vision of those first twenty-four hours, a pure celebration of what it means to be a mother,” she states. She wants...

A Beginners Guide to Light Modifiers

A Post By: Gina Milicia Regardless of the light source you use (daylight, continuous or flash) it’s really easy to use light modifiers or shapers to train the light in any direction you want. ***A quick note about costs Every kind of light modifier will have a top of the line version and a really cheap version. The main difference between the options is that the cheaper ones won’t be as durable. This becomes important when you’re using them every single day. When you’re learning how to use them however, I recommend choosing cheap...

It’s Your Image Do What you Like to it

A Post By: Leanne Cole Quite some years ago when I was doing my Fine Art Degree at University I was working on an image which I wasn’t quite sure about. My tutor came over and asked what was wrong. I told him that I thought people wouldn’t like one aspect of it. He looked at me and said, “It’s your image, you can do anything you like to it.” Ever since then I keep repeating those words to myself. For a number of years now I’ve been putting images on the internet like so many other people. The internet is flooded with them, yet,...

I Had 164 Rolls of Film Processed at Once: Here’s How I Do It

I recently stopped into the Costco in Mountain View, California with 164 rolls of Kodak Portra 400. You should’ve seen the look of the staff — it was a look of confusion, awe, and amazement. They were surprised that all that film I brought in was all shot by me. They were also partly worried that they would have to process all of it. I reassured them by telling them to take their time. I wasn’t in a rush. After all, I had been sitting on my film and letting them “marinate” for nearly a full year. The benefits of waiting to...

Lighting Fundamentals: High Speed Sync Versus Flash Duration

Lighting Fundamentals: High Speed Sync Versus Flash Duration

If you’re just getting started in learning how to light your shot with flashes, you may be confused about the terms “high speed sync” and “flash duration.” Here’s a helpful 6-minute primer in which photographer Daniel Norton explains what these two concepts are, how they differ, and which situations they come in handy for. In his first example, Norton uses high speed sync to shoot at 1/4000th of a second, well over the maximum sync speed of his flash (1/250s in normal mode), in order to capture an outdoor portrait at f/1.2...

Instagram Announces Layout, an App for Combining Multiple Photos Into a Single Image

Today Instagram unveiled its new Layout. No, it’s not a redesign of the company’s website or app, but rather a new official app for easily combining multiple photos into single images that can quickly be shared. It’s not the first time Instagram has released an app separate from its main social networking product. You may remember that in August of last year the company launched a new hyperlapse creation app named Hyperlapse. The new Layout app helps combine photos from your Camera Roll in common ways with minimal effort. Users...

A Look at Composition in Documentary Photography

A Look at Composition in Documentary Photography

In my mind, there are three important elements of a photograph. Lighting, Composition and Moment. Every picture that I love has these elements, in varying amounts. A great picture may have strength in all three areas, or it may be, for example, such an emotional moment that it overpowers poor composition or light. But for this article I want to take a quick look at composition, and how photographers will be subconsciously considering many compositional elements when making pictures as well as editing and post processing later. Case...

Adaptalux: How I Designed a Light for the Everyday Macro Photographer

Product design is the notion of transforming an idea into a tangible object that has a purpose. Solving problems with products is what I like to do — it’s how I try to give something back to the world. Adaptalux is something I created recently to give photographers a portable macro studio wherever they go. It all started with a simple problem: how can I design a lighting product that photographers of all ability can understand and use easily? The one word that struck me was simplicity, and I made this a key design objective....
