Camera Dojo - Take better pictures with our photography tutorials and podcast. The Imaging Buffet. Photoiris. The Endless Summer. I used to have that dayglo movie poster on my wall back in the day. A few weeks ago at Diah and Colin’s wedding, Colin’s brother Andrew–as only one’s siblings can do–recounted the time that his teenage brother, inspired by that surfing movie, handmade his own surfboard…and took to the waters of Long Island Sound on an oddly-shaped, sinking fiberglass creation. So it was all quite fitting that Colin and Diah were married in the summer, at the seaside–with a gorgeous red-orange sunset for a backdrop at the Riverside Yacht Club in Greenwich CT.

Guests, many who traveled from India, dined under the tent decorated with flowers from Something Special florist, before hitting to the dance floor bigtime to the high energy sounds of Joe D’Elia and the Allstar Band. All very relaxed and in-the-moment, right up to the sparkler exit, when Diah & Colin hopped a getaway on Riverside’s harbor launch.

Photography is all about exposure, or the light that is allowed to be let in when a photo is taken.

Pioneer Woman Photography

Learning how to adjust exposure to get the effect you’re looking for is one of the things all photographers have to eventually learn, and one of the easiest examples of this is taking a photo of a silhouette against a sunrise or sunset. In the photo above, I exposed for the sky. “Exposing for the sky” means I told my camera that I wanted to capture all the beauty and color variations of the sky and not to worry about letting enough light in to see my baby. By “telling my camera” I mean that I made the necessary adjustments and tweaks to my camera settings to make sure the sky was properly exposed. In this case, I took the easy road and simply dialed back the exposure compensation until it let in less and less light…to the point that I was satisfied that it was capturing the sunset accurately.

Anyway, short little lesson this morning. Photographers, please feel free to weigh in! Love, P-Dub.
