aperture

Aperture in photography – what does this mean? And is it important?

Yes, it sure is, so you need to understand aperture to take the best photos you can.

 Understanding aperture will help you take the highest quality, sharpest and correctly exposed photos with the desired depth of field.

In this episode, I tell you

• What aperture is
• What do those strange numbers mean
• Maximum and minimum aperture
• How aperture affects exposure
• What if I use a phone to take photos and not a camera?
• What if I use a film camera?
• And finally, what I do.

All explained in plain English, without the irrelevant detail, in less than 27 (ish) minutes!

Episode 9. In the "Know Your Camera" series that will be intertwined between regular episodes, we take a deep dive into understanding the basics of our cameras. Why? Even if you are familiar with the basic functions, sometimes there are little nuggets that change our understanding or we just need to hear something or talk about a topic we haven't addressed in a while that can change how we work with our cameras. Knowing your camera is of course the most basic element related to what goes on behind the scenes of any photoshoot.  You may also had the experience of something seemingly going wrong with your camera or you can't make a basic adjustment only to then realize it's because you accidentally touched or changed a setting. It happens to all of us. The better we know our cameras, the less likely to panic when this happens.

In this episode we talk about one of the fundamentals of photography, Aperture. Aperture is the key to giving your photos your desired look and giving your photos your signature style whether you're a hobbyist, semi-pro, or pro. But in order to do that, you have to have a strong foundation and understanding of Aperture and how it works.  Aperture is one of the elements of the Exposure Triangle but today, when we talk about Aperture we're only going to talk about Aperture. In future episodes, we will combine the elements of the exposure triangle-aperture, shutter speed, and ISO-plus other elements such as white balance and flash. But for now, we will discuss each element independent of all others.

I've found that this is the point where most people get lost: when someone decides that these elements are so basic they can be understood just in a few minutes. While that may be true for many, it's not true for all, including me. It took me a long time get "it". My hope is that learning it this way will save you time and having you shooting like a pro in the fraction of the time it took me.

Lastly, you may notice that my speech is slow (slower than usual) and deliberate. I wanted to make sure not to rush and to give you the best opportunity to learn about Aperture and to learn about it properly. So if it sounds deliberately slow it is!

Episode 7. In this week's episode we take a look at how to map your portrait photoshoot in order to create a seamless workflow for the client, the team, and for the photographer. Those annoying minute details that we dread taking care of before a shoot can make all the difference between a quality experience for everyone involved and a series of challenges during a photoshoot. Key to a quality experience is building consistency for general mapping: Doing the same things over and over so they become good habits and become a routine for every shoot. Next, we look at shoot specific mapping: the customized details specific to the individual client including things like backdrops, lighting, aperture, posing and other facets to help convey the desired mood of the photos for that client.

In this episode I cover many types of auto focus methods and the theory behind them. I talk about my favorite settings when shooting, and why I choose to use certain settings.

Welcome back and thank you for coming back to listen to another installment of Archetype Aperture! In this episode I will be discussing how to shoot in low light situations, as well as defining a bit more of what this podcast is and who its for. I also discuss my crazy brain, and how and why I skip around so frequently from subject to subject.

My hope is that this episode will actually teach you something, and not just bore you to tears.

Hi and welcome to my little corner of the world! This podcast is created for those that are beginners to intermediate in the art of photography. In this my first episode to be uploaded (not the first episode recorded) I discuss change, changes in marketing, changes in life and how its affecting me. This first episode is mainly a daily thought that I had, the following episodes will most likely follow that pattern. As I have thoughts throughout the day, I may decide to sit down and discuss them with you!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions concerns, as well as topics youd like to hear about.

Jonah and Renessa discuss THE MOST important piece of queer news this week: The L Word Generation Q premiere. Sunday night's viewing event in Boston was a smashing queer success with the Lez Hang Out ladies and the Wicked Queer Film Festival!

Our guest this week is Antwaun Sargent, art critic, curator and writer, who has contributed to The New York Times, The New Yorker, Vice, Interview, and more, as well as essays for multiple museum publications. His first book, “The New Black Vanguard: Photography Between Art and Fashion” (published by Aperture) tracks the emerging global movement of young artists reclaiming the black image, beauty, and identity. We discuss the problem and the movement his book examines, his career trajectory to becoming a writer and critic, and  looking to history to find examples of people who are like you.

INTERVIEW STARTS AT 00:15:33
