        Shooting in Kelvin | Photog Friday

        photography education, diana gordon photography, photo

        Shooting in Kelvin was a game changer for me as a photographer. No more worrying about yellow tones from lights anymore! Kelvin is a scale to measure the color of light.  Each image you take has a color temperature attached to it. A lot of people default to using the white balance settings that are...

              Photog Friday: Scheduling and Weather

              Times and weather are always the depending factors for sessions. And the time of the day/sun location and the weather can make or break a session. I have photographed in all types of weather (rain, snow, hurricane, fog, etc.). If the rain percentage is higher than 60%, I always make sure to communicate with my...

                  Software and Programs | Photog Friday

                  software, programs, diana gordon photography, photo

                    The most valuable knowledge I have gained from other photographers has been through shadowing them/watching them work AND other photographers telling me what type of programs and software that they use. Those moments have always been game-changers for me. I have been able to grow or elevate my business over the years with the...
