Capturing Holiday Photos – An Assortment of Tips From Professionals
- A photo I took last weekend with a Nikon D40X. Okay, I'm still learning!
Photos taken during the holidays exceed in numbers those taken at the most photographed location in the World... Disney World in Orlando, Fl. But capturing the magic of the holidays is often no easy feat.
A candlelit dinner just wouldn't be the same if photographed with a flash. And photos for business collateral (e.g. brochures, holiday cards and web advertisements) can leave customers or audiences with a bad impression if they're poorly shot.
So, how does one shoot wonderful holiday photos? Don't ask me. Ask the experts. Below you'll find links to a collection of the best tips I've yet seen. Whether you're a professional luring an audience or someone hoping to capture memories around a dining table, these tips are spot on.
My thanks to my friend and upcoming hot photographer Ashley Pendergraft for sharing. Enjoy, and Happy Holidays.
