There is a general misconception that whiteness and brightness of a writing material is the same thing. The two aspects have a major difference especially when the material is used to print color. However, there is a similarity between a bright paper and a white one in their reflectivity feature.

Brightness of papers is achieved by the degree of bleaching and by use of fluorescing agents used in achieving that purpose. This tends to give such papers the appearance of a dazzling white. Such a sheet will fluoresce under black light. Black light is also used in detecting counterfeit bills.

In theory, whiteness and brightness of papers affect the lightness and brightness of the images produced. In practice, less bright type of papers will produce relatively darker colors. On the contrary, brighter papers produce more vibrant colors. However, light colors in image appear washed out on exceptionally white papers.

To most people looking at papers, white ones always appear just white. When various papers are placed side by side, they show different colors ranging from softer and warmer white to a cool and bright white. The more blue light that reflects off the surface, the brighter and whiter the material appears.

It is also very important for people to know that different companies make papers of varying degree of brightness. The observer of these papers will also be a factor since different people will have different perspective to colors. Other factors that will significantly affect the brightness of color would be smoothness of the papers used.

People have different choices of the kind of brightness and whiteness they need. This is dependent on the nature of their printing project as well as cost. However, the above-mentioned ideas would apply generally to every individual. These tips can guide one so that they could be more selective in their purchases in order to ensure better quality printing.

His friends started to call him Freddie and he showed good sportsmanship by joining numerous sports and winning many games. Besides sports he also has an exceptional skill in art and music. Freddie also took piano training and became a member of university choir. Together with his school buddies, they created the school's rock'n roll band and referred to it as 'Hectics.' They do performances in school parties and during special occasions. He spent his college in Isleworth Polytechnic and Ealing College of Art and took up graphic illustrating course.

He met the band of his buddy Tim called Smile that made him motivated again in playing piano. He started practicing with his own buddies who are very impressed on his unique way of actively playing piano. Soon after graduation having a diploma in graphic arts and design he began selling his artwork for profits.

At the age of 23, he was unveiled in the music group referred to as Ibex and given the opportunity to become among its members but eventually the music group was broken so Freddie searched for another rock band. He found Sour Milk Sea and grew to become its lead singer but just soon after few months the band had exactly the same fate. Freddie had the chance to become a member of the band of Smile as a lead singer and change the name of the band to 'Queen'.

Freddie created Bohemian Rhapsody, a very popular track and known all around the globe. It was performed by his band Queen and released its 1975 album "A Night at the Opera." This track is so distinctive, having no chorus although with three main parts; the ballad, the guitar solo, and the hard rock.

He also wrote several songs entitled the Seven Seas of Rhye, We Are the Champions, Killer Queen, Somebody to Love, Play the Game, Bicycle Race, Don't Stop Me Now, Crazy Little Things Called Love and Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy. Freddie also changed his image by trimming his hair and grew a moustache.

He also had solo albums and singles apart from his work with Queen. His two full albums outside the rock band were Mr. Bad Guy in 1985 and Barcelona in 1988. Mr. Bad Guy is a pop-oriented album good for disco and dance tunes while Barcelona had been recorded and performed with Montserrat Caballe. Both of those records received mind-boggling results.
Freddie met Mary Austin early in 1970 with whom he loved for seven years but separated and remained as close friends.

He even produced several songs devoted to her and one of this is "Love of My life"

During their July 13, 1985 performance at Live Aid in Wembley Stadium with about 72,000 people, Queen secured their place in the music history.

Take the time to make anyone who models for you comfortable, and this is especially true if they are not familiar with you. Many people tend to see someone taking photos as a threat. Be engaging, talk to them and ask for their permission to take their pictures. Be clear that the purpose of your photographs is artistic and not invasive.

For landscape photography, attempt to capture the natural depth of the view. Have a person or other object put into the foreground in order to gauge the overall scale of the image. Aperture sizes like f/8 on a consumer camera, or f/16 on a professional DSLR, make it so you need not sacrifice foreground sharpness for background sharpness or vice-versa.

When using a camera that takes film, consider what brand of film you would like to use. Every person that takes photographs has a different taste in what kind of film they like to use. A lot of good film brands are just as good as any other, so it comes down to personal preference. The choice is completely yours, so experiment until you find one you like.

Skies that are overcast should be avoided in photographs. Showing too much gray sky in photos will make pictures appear muted. If you cannot avoid capturing an overcast sky in your shot, opt for black and white rather than color photos. If the sky outside is a beautiful blue, include it in your photos but watch the light.

Take photos of interesting people whose faces tell stories. You should always ask permission first. Pictures like these help you to find more vivid memories when you look back, even if at the time the people seemed unremarkable. It's a great idea to focus on the unique styles and expressions visible in each individual picture.

When capturing images of natural features, large buildings or architectural structures, have some people in the frame to give the image some scale. If someone is looking at the photos and do not know how large it is, it might be hard for them to realize it without some sort of scale to judge by.

In photography, what you have inside of the frame sets off the overall composition of the image. Zoom in on your subject or the most important part of the photo and cut out extraneous objects from the background. This will make sure that people do not get distracted from the main focal point, as well as keep your photographs well styled without the background clutter.

Whenever you are in charge of taking photos for an event or celebration, draft a list of shots that you or the attendees would like to capture ahead of time. This allows you to be organized during the chaos that results from a big party.

Use a good lens to get a better image quality. You can create artistic pictures with any kind of equipment if you work hard and adapt your style to your equipment. But getting a good lens definitely opens up more possibilities. For instance, you can capture more details and get a better focus.

Although it may seem obvious, but know how to handle your camera and what happens when you press the buttons on it. Understand what happens when the shutter button is pressed and the timing of the shutter. It really depends on personal preference and there is no right or wrong way, but some things do not vary like keeping the camera perfectly still while taking a photo.

An important tip to consider when dealing with photography is that you always want to use the rule of thirds when taking landscape pictures. This means that you want to have 2/3 of your shot land and 1/3 sky, or vice versa. This is a guide to help frame your shot correctly.

Set up some basic programs for your DSLR camera. By setting some of the basic values ahead of time, you don't have to mess with them in the event that you want to get a shot in, in a short amount of time. Instead, you just press the button and start shooting.

Be careful when shooting with the ISO feature set at a high setting. It will allow you to capture photos in low light settings but it opens the door to noisy pictures that may look grainy. Ideally you should keep the ISO set low or increase it very slightly to capture the low light photos.

Keep your pictures relatively simple. A good image should be straightforward and easy to interpret and appreciate. It is important to take meaningful pictures, but in most cases your pictures will say more if you focus on a detail rather than put together a complex composition that might not strike people as much.

Make use of lines to draw the viewer's eye into the photograph. Lines can help provide a sense of depth to an image. If done correctly, the lines themselves can even be an interesting subject themselves. The use of lines in photography is a complex topic, but the main thing to consider is that they should draw you in, not push you away.

Play with the shutter speed on your camera to catch unique and wonderful photos. If you have the right shutter speed, you can get beautiful photos that would normally happen so fast that the human eye couldn't process it fully. Try experimenting with shutter speed and a tripod at a stream or waterfall for some great photos.

Pay attention to your background. Your main focus should be on your object, but you should use the background to support it. Avoid any unnecessary distractions and clean your background to report the attention on your object. Play with lines and perspective in your background to compliment the shape of your object.

Be sure your photo has a solid focal point. Without a good focal point your photographs will end up looking empty, leaving the eye with nowhere to rest. Your viewers will be more appreciative of a photo that has a clear focus, even if you are shooting a landscape or other wide setting.

Photography - Do You Realize?

Posted by Georgy | 4/28/2012

Don't try to pose your subjects for every picture. Candid, action shots are often times some of the best. You will capture a person in their natural setting, in their natural mood, and the picture will look more "real" because of it. Take lots of candid pictures and you're sure to get a few that are great.

Avoid capturing an overcast sky in your photos. Including too much of a gray sky will make your pictures appear muted and washed-out. Black and white photography may work better if you must shoot into an overcast sky. If the sky is blue and beautiful however, include it as much as you want, but pay attention to the light.

Pay attention to your light. The lighting in a photograph can bring a subject into better focus or change the mood of the picture. Different lighting setups will result in very different photographs. Avoid harsh direct lighting on your subject's face, as this will generally cause them to squint.

Experiment with different shutter speeds to see what works best for different scenarios. Photography allows you to capture a split-second moment and to blur together large time periods. Using a faster shutter speed will let you catch objects while they are in motion, while a slow shutter speed is great for capturing serene natural settings.

Consider how the viewer's eye will follow the shot. Good shots have at least one point that will focus the viewer's initial attention. Better shots have multiple points of interest that act as a virtual tour of the photo. Example include a defined skyline, lines on a road, or items in the foreground that stretch into the background.

Don't rely too heavily on image-editing software. It's a great tool to have, but if you rely on it too much, your photographs will start to look highly artificial. Try to achieve what you want before bringing it into image-editing software.

Use a rather low ISO. A good ISO is around 200. Using this range of ISO will make your pictures look dark in certain situations, but you can easily change the contrast and light on a computer. If you use a higher ISO, you will get a lot of noise on your picture, which makes editing harder.

Learn how to play with the shutter speed. You can choose to snap a quick picture or choose a slower exposure to capture a flow or movement in its entirety. You will need to experiment with this and find what kind of speed matches certain situations. This is a matter of personal style rather than a general guideline to follow.

A fantastic photography tip is to constantly look at other photographers for inspiration. Looking at the work of other photographers will remind you that there are endless ways to capture a moment. If you're ever struggling and running low on motivation, turn to the work of other photographers.

Learn how to snap a picture quickly. Do not wait for your subject to take a certain pause, this might not happen. Take several pictures if you need to. By taking pictures quickly, you will get natural expressions and pauses. If you wait too long, your subject will probably have a rather rigid and artificial expression.

There are many wildlife photography tips I can reveal to you, but here are the most key. It really does rely a great deal on, not only lighting, but your timing and awareness of the animal you are photographing and a whole lot of patience.

I can recommend to a a small number of memory cards with you and make sure you can store an obscene amount of data on them. And photograph in RAW. You will be able to get the best quality that way and be able to keep those shots for a lifetime. And expect to capture many photos until you get the right photo. It all comes down to preparation.

Portraits can actually educate us about wildlife photography. How we compose and makeup our animal within the frame, focus on the eyes and body motion, and maintain sharp focus on the eyes...these are all strategies we do in portraiture everyday and wildlife photography is no different.

Even if you get nothing else in focus, and you have the eyes nice and clear, then you can get away with it. We always look at eyes, which is why this system works best and works perfectly. You will have noticed in the past that if the eyes are blurred in a head and shoulders photo, then we just don't respond emotionally with the image.

Your own individual wellbeing is a massive consideration. Never get very close to a wild creature if you can help it. This is why wildlife photographers make use of really lengthy lenses. They need to be able to get as close to the action as soon as possible without surprising the animal to their being there, or, put themselves in harms way. Many wild animals are tremendously territorial and may react to you as a threat if they are unsure. So be wise. Bring a telephoto lens and keep out of view.

Not only do we use a telephoto lens for this purpose, but also for the idea of not wanting to intimidate the animal in any way. This is especially true for birds. Wild birds are nervous little things at best. When a bird is resting quietly on a tree branch waiting patiently for a mate, you don't want to make a sound from the undergrowth and risk it hurrying away.

Sunset and the break of day are by far the greatest times to take photos of wild animals. They come out for a meal and can be seen stalking, fighting and searching carefully. They will also come out of their sleeping spot, get ready for attracting a mate and start singing or performing the ritual of courtship. This can provide you with some amazing photo opportunities.

What about where you place things in the photo? Wild life photography, like any portrait photo, is best complete with a sense of balance of negative space and positive breathing space surrounding your animal. if an animal is looking into the distance for instance, be sure you give the animal breathing space in front of it to "look into". This works well for nearly all wildlife.

Utilize these wildlife photography suggestions by going to the zoo. Practice on a variety of animals until you feel confident to move to the next step- the wild. Good luck and happy shooting!

A good photography tip is to focus on subjects that interest you. If you find yourself taking pictures of things that don't interest you, it shouldn't come as a surprise when you see that people aren't interested in your photographs. Picking a subject that you're passionate about is very important.

Don't stay inside when the weather is bad. Although it's natural to think a sunny day is the best time to grab the camera, overcast and rainy days provide an opportunity to get shots that would be hard to get at any other time. These weather conditions can give shots that would look neutral or cheery on a sunny day a dark and foreboding tone.

Never tell your subject to "smile for the camera." You will almost always regret the result if you yank a person out of a relaxed atmosphere and place them on display. Pressure to perform is rarely what will transfer well in a photographic portrait. Instead to telling them to smile, give them something to smile about naturally. Say something funny, or even better, get them to tell you something about their life that is obviously something they cherish.

In photography, it is very important to vary the amount of angles that you use on your subject. Shoot pictures from the front, side, and back, which will help to give you an elegant collage instead of just one angle. Move around as often as possible to optimize your results.

Be sure your photo has a solid focal point. Without a good focal point your photographs will end up looking empty, leaving the eye with nowhere to rest. Your viewers will be more appreciative of a photo that has a clear focus, even if you are shooting a landscape or other wide setting.

Use a diffuser to minimize the negative effects of flash photography. The built-in flash on most cameras produce photos that have a high light-dark contrast, which makes them look harsh and unrealistic. A diffuser diffuses the light from the flash, distributing it more evenly and making your flash photos look more natural.

If you know that you have a really important shoot the next day, make sure that you get ample rest. Yes, a lack of sleep will directly result in loss of judgment, which will hurt the quality of the shots that you take. Get at least eight hours of rest the night before a photo shoot.

When taking a picture, try to take one at a medium distance and then take one closer. You may decide later on that a picture would have looked better had you taken it a little closer. Also, try to make sure your subject is toward the center of the picture.

Select what will appear in your photograph. A good picture should be like a small window showing a certain aspect of your subject. Do not try showing too much. If you want to give a more general impression of something, take a series of pictures rather than a single photograph with no real focus or details.

Photography - An Art of Knowledge

Posted by Georgy | 4/27/2012

Learn how to use aperture on your camera. It indicates how much of the stuff that is seen in your view finder will be in focus. Low aperture means that only the foreground will be in focus and the background will be more blurred. High aperture means that everything will equally be in focus.

Pay attention to the foreground when you're shooting a landscape. Many photographers pay attention to the background of a landscape shot and neglect the foreground, but the foreground is what the viewer will see. Compose the foreground of your shot to create a more striking frame and increase the appearance of depth.

Do not use the flash on a camera unless you are in a darker location. Using a flash outdoors in a location that already has a lot of light will just make your picture come out too bright. Some cameras have an automatic flash setting so that your camera knows when the flash is needed.

Never tell your subject to "smile for the camera." You will almost always regret the result if you yank a person out of a relaxed atmosphere and place them on display. Pressure to perform is rarely what will transfer well in a photographic portrait. Instead to telling them to smile, give them something to smile about naturally. Say something funny, or even better, get them to tell you something about their life that is obviously something they cherish.

Understand and get to know your camera. Although this sounds simple, many people have never even read the instructions on how to operate their camera. Get to know and understand the various menus and functions of every button on it so that when you need to use a certain function, you know where to find it and that the camera can accomplish it.

Be mindful of the framing of your subject. What this means will vary by subject. For instance, if you are taking a picture of one person, getting a close shot where the subject fills the frame is your best bet, since details are important. On the other hand, a landscape shot might benefit from being further away, as you get the entire scene this way.

Get an external flash unit with a diffuser instead of the built-in flash feature. These built-in flashes often make a picture look very harsh. An external flash unit gives a more natural aspect to your photographs and allows you to edit them without the noise you get when you use another kind of flash.

Use a rather low ISO. A good ISO is around 200. Using this range of ISO will make your pictures look dark in certain situations, but you can easily change the contrast and light on a computer. If you use a higher ISO, you will get a lot of noise on your picture, which makes editing harder.

A fantastic photography tip is to constantly look at other photographers for inspiration. Looking at the work of other photographers will remind you that there are endless ways to capture a moment. If you're ever struggling and running low on motivation, turn to the work of other photographers.

1.) Focus your camera - In order to ensure your images are sharp, ensure that you know how to focus your camera. Digital cameras with auto focus tend to be tough to focus precisely, especially when shooting tiny objects. Make certain your read your user guide and learn how your camera's auto focus operates. Most digital cameras are supposed to easily focus on large objects but have a problem on small objects. It is often useful to put your camera in spot focus mode. Spot focus is going to give you with additional control over what part of a scene your camera is actually focusing on.

2) Use a tripod - Even the smallest movements while taking a picture will cause motion blur. The closer you get to an object the more obvious the motion blur becomes. Making use of an affordable tripod will make a huge difference in the sharpness of the images. For really sharp images it's wise to buy a good, sturdy tripod. If your camera carries a remote shutter release then use it, if not then makes use of the camera's built-in timer to minimize camera shake.

3) Put your camera in aperture priority mode - To get the largest area of your subject in focus, it's good to put your camera in aperture priority mode as well as set the aperture to the highest number possible. The closer you can your subject, the more important this becomes.

4) Use soft lighting - Your camera's built-in flash will rarely work for product photography. For soft lighting either shoot outside by using an over case day or use a light tent like the EZcube, Cubelite, or make use of a soft box.

5) Use image editing software - Even low-priced software like Photoshop Elements or ACD. Because it will certainly make your product photography less difficult. It might appear to be it's faster to make use of an image just as it was shot. But the fact is, it's difficult to shoot an image the correct way you want to appear in its final form. Image editing software allows you to crop a picture, adjust its exposure, sharpen the image and then resize it, often in less than 60 seconds.

The largest difference between an amateur's product snapshot as well as a professional's product image is sharpness and lighting. Steps 1,2, and 3 will help the sharpness of your images while Step 4 may improve your lighting. A minute spent editing an image will improve it further. Since these few steps seem so basic, it's tempting to ignore them. However, by taking time to follow them, you will observe a huge improvement in the quality of your photos.

Understanding how different lighting affects a photo is half the work of creating better photos. This informative article aims to present a brief summary of the several sorts of light you might encounter as a photographer and the way to make use of them to your great advantage.

Direct light - Looking in the family picture album yesterday, I noticed a recurring theme; photo after photo of folks squinting to the sun appearing like ghosts with the flat, white faces and dark holes where our eyes should have been. This can be one of the most typical mistakes people make when taking photos in direct sunlight. By standing with all your back to the sun, you effectively flatten out the light and as a consequence your subject. All those interesting lines and textures disappear and you will be left with single dimensional image. When you're shooting a portrait, you force your subject to look into the sun. It is then hard for them to not squint or contort their face into several unappealing shapes.

When you are shooting in the middle of the day, when the sun is high, the form of their brows might also create dark shadows over their eyes, effectively removing the most effective feature in a portrait. This type of light gives you its advantages, especially early morning and late afternoon when the sun is low in the sky. The lighting happens to be more golden and can cast a warm glow over subjects and make some amazing colors. It truly is for this reason that landscape photographers like to shoot during these times of day. It's also quite flattering for people as the need to squint is less and late afternoon light has a way of highlighting a person's eyes.

Diffused light - is non directional light, where power of light is even; for example, an overcast day. This light is great for portrait photography because it creates little if any shadow on a person's face. This is quite flattering to the majority people. For the very same reason, diffused light is also useful in macro, or up close photography. The evenness of light lets you capture detail with your subject that will somewhat be lost to overblown highlights or deep shadows if taken in direct sunlight.

There are some instances where this type of lighting may be detrimental to a picture. For instance, landscape photography. Getting a picture of an expansive scene with a flat grey sky and dull colors throughout the landscape is just plain unappealing.

You can put a dent in your photographic reputation if you take poor photographs. Here are helpful strategies toward becoming a better photographer.

Shooting at eye level is a great way to connect with your subject. This approach will seem more personal and cause your viewers to gravitate to the subject. If you are taking pictures of small children, you may have to drop yourself down so that you are at their level.

When approaching scenarios or subjects that are unfamiliar to you, don't hesitate to practice before the actual photo shoot. No two environments are exactly the same, so practice shots can help you to adjust. It is normal for light to change, so take lots of practice shots to get the right lighting.

A silhouette can look lovely in any picture. Many methods for creating a silhouette exist, including the most popular method of using a sunset. Any background that is substantially brighter than your subject will create a silhouette. You can establish artificial light in the background or position your subject before a source of light, such as a window, if you want to create a silhouette image. Occasionally, this type of shot might have a face or body outline that is less than flattering.

Keep the settings on your camera simple. Focus on learning a single aspect of your camera's settings before moving on to the others. This will enable you get the image that you want, when you want it, instead of losing time having to fumble with the settings.

Good composition is necessary for a great photo. There are some that are naturally gifted in finding the best composition for a shot, but others will have to work for it. For instance, placing your subject at the center of your shot is the norm, but you can create interesting effects by off-centering your subjects.

Take pictures of anything and everything on trips. While they may not seem that important at the time, when you get home and start to reflect on your trip, having these smaller memories will be great. Oddball items you come across, street signs and paper memorabilia can be great subjects.

Make sure your subject is in focus and at the center of your picture. If you want your pictures to have the best composure, and reflect your personal style, stay focused. When you are just getting started, keep your subject centered in the picture and in view. Don't worry too much about the background. Just leave it alone.

Unlearning poor photography techniques can be difficult, but if you know the right way to do things and practice, you should get it eventually. To improve your skill, educate yourself on everything you can regarding photography and seek out criticism for your work. The tips you have learned here are a great stepping stone on your photography journey.

Whether you are an experienced photographer or just beginning, welcome to this beautiful form of art! This art has many kinds of techniques you can explore. Photography is personal and it might seem like it will be hard to find the things that work. Read the following tips to give you some ideas.

Red eyes may be a common problem that seems minor, but they can ruin the perfect picture. You can prevent red eye by avoiding flash whenever possible. If you do need to use flash, have the subject not look directly into the lens. Many cameras have a special red eye feature.

Choose to set your own white balance manually. Most cameras automatically choose a white balance for your photos, but for true control of your image, set this manually. Yellow tints found in shots taken of scenes illuminated by incandescent bulbs can be avoided by making a change to the white balance. You can even change the whole ambiance of the picture by making a simple adjustment.

For unique and interesting effects, try varying shutter speeds. You can take action pictures without any motion blur by using a faster shutter speed. This can be especially important if you're photographing sporting events, concerts, or a group of animals in the wild. Another option is to emphasize the motion blur by using a slower shutter speed. Motion blurs are especially majestic when photographing moving water.

Maintain only a short distance between your camera lens and your subject. This will help you fill the frame. This works perfectly if your subject is an inanimate object. If you can not get close enough, use the zoom button on your camera.

Before you start snapping pictures, come up with a concept. To create the best shot possible, you need to plan out all aspects of your portrait. As with any form of art, it's all in the details and execution of a concept or idea. This approach will reward you with keen inspiration and better results.

Learn how to compose your photos properly to improve their quality. Whether you want to be a professional photographer or just want to take photos for fun, your photographs can benefit from learning composition principles. Like other forms of art, if your composition is lacking, then the outcome will not be the best. After you have done your research into composition, practice putting it to use and after some time you will see that your images have improved greatly.

In the photography world there are a lot of things you can do to take better pictures. Photographers have so many techniques at their disposal that they need to personalize their style to really excel at their craft. For all, though, you should have a good understanding of how to improve your photographs.

No biggie, just make a confirmed habit of taking one or two extra shots for anything that you can.

Do not forget, take an extra memory chip. This can be an issue when using this method. There are many times I have forgotten totally to take an additional card with me. So here is what I did, I bought 1 or 2 extra cards and put them in the base of my camera bag and totally forgot about them. Then I always practiced to bring the extras from home while managing to avoid the indisputable fact that I already have extras in the bag. If I ever forgot my extras from home, I would still have extras in my bag. It's a easy strategy and it is possible to get memory chips cheap from Amazon.

So you are in Chicago and you have a wedding coming up? If you're like most people you have done everything you can to get the most optimal location, the best band you can afford and even took care of the types of chairs and linen used. But, what do you do about photography for the event?

It's kind of funny when you think about it, but most of the details like the type of food served or music played will fade from everyone's memory within days or weeks of the event. The photographs however remain forever. Doesn't it make sense to pay the most attention to making sure you get optimal photography done for the event?

Then again, what is the process to getting the right photographer or the right studio to your event? What specifically do you need to do in order to make sure you get it right? Well, one interesting idea is that you could hire two studios to work in parallel which will maybe triple or quadruple the odds of capturing everything that's important.

If you're not smart enough to realize the cleverness of hiring two cheaper studios and having them compete at the wedding - then you have to work really hard on picking just one studio. You will have to go ahead and do it the old fashioned way. Go ahead and ask everyone you know in Chicago for recommendations, and what the "word on the street" is in terms of who's good wedding photography and how people's experiences have been.

If you are unable to ask around because you are new in town, or not many people have done weddings from your circle of friends - then I would tell you to take out online reviews and yellow pages. Your next step is finding their online portfolio of previous wedding photography. Just see who's work your like best, and then negotiate!

Getting a professional photographer that's perfect for your wedding is very similar to hiring a good professional in any field. It doesn't matter what the city or profession is, a lot of the same basic foundation rules apply. The major thing that tends to be true in almost any hiring process is using word-of-mouth and recommendations as a great resource.

Word-of-mouth is crucially important not matter what kind of a professional you are hiring. You basically want to ask everyone you know, from relatives to colleagues about recommendations. Just ask if they know who's good and who's bad. Ask about good and bad experiences that people have had and what they can give as advice and tips on hiring pros for weddings. It goes without saying, but if a certain person keeps getting mentioned, then go for that person.

On the other hand, if you are getting lots of different recommendations, and no consensus - you need to do a little more work on the front end. You should use additional factors and criteria to eliminate and filter out photographers and whom you should or shouldn't hire. I'll give you some simple ways to do this.

The first thing I would do is something that some people would consider to be superficial. I would tell you to eliminate people out based on personality matching. You want to see who you have good rapport and connection with. I want you to remember you can't go wrong whomever you choose at this point, in the sense that they should all be technically good at what they do. You're only picking from a pool of people who are equally recommended to you as being good. So you might as well go for people you like.

Having good communication with your photographer will make sure you are on the same wavelength. You want this person to "get" what you're about, which elements of the wedding excite you and which moments you are likely to want captured properly "on film". The more you like how the two of you communicate, the more likely the photography is to suit your needs and your tastes. So please do not underestimate this dynamic!

Blood is thicker than water, that is what they always say, but what exactly do these words stand for? It is a well-known fact that the phase pertains to family, and the ties that should apparently be much stronger than the relationships that we could ever develop with other individuals.

However, most people would probably agree that this is not always the situation, because sometimes, we also form strong bonds with those who are not blood related to us, take for example your best friend, or your innermost circle of friends, they are the people whom we deem as being on the same wavelength as us, the people we turn to when we need advice and a shoulder to cry on, the people who treat us as if we are truly "family".

With all these conflicting notions, what does "being family" really mean? The answer is rather simple, family is where you feel most at home, surrounded by the people who love you unconditionally, whether you are blood related or not. Finding something as special as this is a priceless gift, something that we must all treasure and hold close to our hearts.

With a family portrait, you can do just that, these special photo shoots enable you to document those special moments with your unique family and have something to remember everyone by, even if you are miles from one another. So whenever the opportunity arises for a complete family photo, do not miss the chance to preserve this priceless memory forever, proceed to a trusted photo studio now, and celebrate your time with family.

Your family portraits, can then serve as a great centerpiece for your living space, a striking attention grabber or conversation starter whenever you have guests, and a constant reminder of that distinct bond that you share with each person in the photograph. In the fleeting moments that we are given here on earth, these are the most simple things that we should not fail to appreciate.

It's interesting that I'm about to attempt to tell you how important your wedding is. But you already know this. You already know that it is a massively important event that will stay with you for life. You also know that you need to pay a lot of attention to every detail. Most people try to get everything right. From the band and song list, all the way to the kind of glasses used to pour drinks in.

When it comes to the photographs that remain from the event, you should obviously pay as much attention to as anything else at the event. These are things that will remain with you for the rest of your life. They capture and help make eternal all the other details and work that you did, so you might as well invest the time and energy to make sure the photography is at least at the same level as everything else.

I even know of people who took this so seriously that they went ahead and got multiple photographers to cover their wedding. They hired 1 or 2 cheap amateur photographers plus they get one major photo studio as well. This is obviously overkill for most, but it s an idea worth considering.

The thing I would tell you is to take into consideration the fact that quality is never cheap. I am not saying you have to splurge money like a Hollywood celebrity. I am telling you that if you get the cheapest photographers, you will generally get what you're paying for. The common sense conclusion here is to go as high as you can afford, but no higher than that. I'll let you decide what level this is by yourself.

And one final piece of advice - please go for those who specialize in the field. A studio that advertises that they will "cover all your needs" will generally not do such a good job for your needs as they are likely to be mediocre at everything. Be sure to go for somebody that advertises specifically as specializing in wedding photography in specific.

While I know many different tricks and ways of getting cheaper and better photography, I'm about to share with you my dirtiest and best secret. There are actually wedding photographers out there who shoot for free. They have photos that are far better than most professional ones. They tend to only shoot for friends and family and colleagues. If you offer a person like this even a modest sum, you can get them to shoot for your wedding and get superior results.

The best way to finding these people is using the powers of the internet. Just search for photographer communities or galleries. This is where photographers get together to share their work in a community dedicated to the art. You can then find which of the better artists are in Chicago, and then go see their work, see which person's photos you like the best, especially if they do weddings.

You would then contact them, compliment them on their work and explain how even though you know they're not a "photo studio" you would love to have them shoot your wedding, and then ask them how much it would cost. Tell you would pay whatever their price is . Don't worry; they will give you very cheap rates way below what photo studios charge for.

It isn't just a bunch of advantages though. The downside to going with an artistic photographer is that this one is unlikely to do his or her own prints. He or she doesn't own a studio, and will not be able to offer the same prices for the actual printing, because he doesn't do bulk like a studio would. So you have to go print the photos yourself.

Even though you won't get rates for the printing that are as low as a photo studio shooting would, if you combine the complete costs it will still come out cheaper than hiring a studio to do everything from shoot to organize to print. You just need a very talented amateur.

However, as a result essentially greater freedom to snap, some make the argument that many of our images have less value. This is tricky territory; however who's to mention that the plastic bag lying around the sidewalk isn't lovely, or that the overexposed picture of Fluffy your dog isn't artistic or as valuable as a more traditional family photo? In the end, there is not much point arguing about taste.
