and all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by"
John Masefield
Yes, it's been quiet here for a while. I've been away, not to the sea but to say farewell to a loved one.
Thank you for your patience.
Normal service resumes today :)
...& always with Unique Images!
Seeing: The inspiration behind the images. How we see & how our cameras see. Bringing together your own “eye & brain” with that of the camera.
Shooting: Owning the Image, discovering & reaching the point where “your” images reflect “your” own vision & style. What’s going in the mind as images are seen and captured.
Leaving: Ensuring that the story is complete.
If you can only go to one educational class this year then “Sees, Shoots & Leaves” should definitely be on your shortlist of “must attend” seminars. It will be a day to remember as George Weir describes in detail the inspiration and thinking that leads to the capture of stunning images on each and every shoot such as;
How do you "see, shoot & leave" with great images;
when in addition to the bride & eleven bridesmaids there are at least five others in the room?
or when there seems to be nowhere to go in a tiny room?
How do you "see, shoot & leave" with great images;
that do provide a sense of space?
and still capture the essence of all that is happening?
The answers to these, and many other, questions will be illustrated with a number of sequences which were captured in variety of settings.
“Although I’ve been a full time photographer for 22 years, I always try and attend a course or seminar each year to refresh my batteries and learn something new from other photographers. I’ve been shooting weddings since becoming freelance 3 years ago and, as I’ve come from a newspaper background, I much prefer a photo journalistic approach. Your tips and advice will not only help improve my style but will also mean my clients will get a better album.
