Hi All

Just finished some Supercar photography at East Fortune, a great day with cold but pretty good weather.  As a professional photographer in and around Edinburgh, the outdoor days are drawing to a close and I have some conferences and internal photography commissions to look forward too.  Still doing some infrared photography, although this is a bit limited at the moment with the light failing but there are always opportunities for infrared photography in Scotland and the UK, even when the trees fall.

I thought I would introduce a Tips for the Day for conference and event photography, starting today.  Here are the first 3.

1.   Preparation, is almost as important as the photoshoot, charge batteries, prepare all your gear, two of everything, sort out your travel arrangements and here is the best bit of advice - imagine the scenarios where things can go wrong and what action will you take.  ie car breaks down etc.

2.    Get to know the venue, for lighting, vantage points for shooting, where you can leave your gear.

3.    Plan out in advance the shots you will take and the timing ie which lens will you use and when.  Think about these decisions in advance.

That's all for now, more in a week or two.

Until next time.  All the best
