What camera mode?

What camera mode do you use? Are you afraid to get out of Auto? Are you a manual person? We can chat camera in the comments! No matter your camera type or skill level, bring it! If you have ever taken a picture, you are a photographer. No excuses! C’mon now! 
P.S. I love me some bokeh (it’s all those pretty little “dots” up there in that photo). I even created a Flickr group dedicated to it. Add any photos to the group you have with bokeh in them between now (15th of June) and the 30th of June. I’ll pick some of my favorites and feature them here on the blog!
I want to be a photographer. How do I get started?
April 17, 2010 1 Comment
Want to be a photographer, but don’t know how or where to start? You’re not alone. I’ve been asked that question many times! Here are some pointers:
- Do your research.
- Buy a “big girl camera” (a dSLR).
- Get a pile of books and reading your camera’s manual.
- Experiment
- {Possibly} apprentice under someone.
Did that help any? Do you have any questions or comments? I’d love to answer them!

Pretty flower, no? I think so too. Especially now that it is in digital form and won’t make me sneeze. So. Darn. Much.

Aqua Mason jars sparkling in the sunlight on our big farmhouse table. One of the many simple joys that can get overlooked sometimes.
By the way, have you checked out the linky out at the host’s (my friend Darcy) blog? Woa! Tons of fabulous entries!
Photography Basics: Editing Photos
March 26, 2010 Leave a Comment
Always have a great shot SOOC (strait out of the camera). It will save you lots of time in the editing process. If you have a really great SOOC shot, you should be able to get by with your basic photo editing. If you have a bad SOOC shot, you will spend tons of time editing only one photo. In the long run, it is better to know your stuff and shoot right the first time. It will save you tons of time and you will get great shots!
Do you have a question about editing photos or a photography related question in general? I’d love to answer any question(s) you may have to try and help you out! Just hit the “Email Hannah” button at the top.

Photography Basics: What is aperture?
March 19, 2010 Leave a Comment
Aperture is the size of the opening in your lens when you take a photo. The larger the opening, the more light will get in – the smaller the openinging, the less light will get in. Those different openings are called f-stops.
small f-stop = large opening
large f-stop = small opening
Therefore, when you set your aperature, keep in mind the lighting. If it’s darker where your working, use a larger opening (smaller f-stop). If it’s brighter where your working, use a small opening (large f-stop).
Make sense? Have questions?
Photography Basics: What is exposure?

I’m exposure challenged. If you want me to explain exposure to you in a blog post, I’m not your gal. Ree is.
