Location
I took this photo on the beaches of Duck, NC! I love a good photo shoot with my kids, and I'm learning more about photography every day! I received a camera as a gift and have taught myself everything I know through trial and error!Time
This was taken right around noon! We had just arrived at the beach and I was taking shots of the ocean. My daughter said "take a pic of me leaping," and I did!Lighting
It was a bright, hot, sunny day! I let the sun do all the work!Equipment
I used my brand new Nikon D3100 with the fancy lens that came with it! I was brand new to the camera.Inspiration
I lovvvvveeeeee taking pictures of my children. My teenage daughter enjoying a day at the beach... what could be more inspiring than that?Editing
Post-processing? What's that? At the time, I was brand new to the camera and to photography and didn't even know that post-processing was a thing! It's au-natural!In my camera bag
I have my camera, two lenses and my batteries. That's it! I love to shoot theater, too, and am learning how to best capture images on stage.Feedback
Just go for it! If you're new to photography, don't be nervous. Try and try again. You never know when you'll be asked to comment on a novice shot you've taken!
