Virtual Copies and Snapshots

1. You can only export one image at a time.

2. Only the last one that you saved will get exported in Snapshots.

3. To make a Virtual Copy image you just press Ctrl+1 after that you can edit the photos however you like.

4. The advantage of using Virtual Copy is that you can export all of them at the same time instead of exporting them one at a time.

5. If you delete your master photo your Virtual Copy will be deleted with it.

Stock Photography and Legal Issues

1. A model release is asking permission to take the photo that they model in and how they want it to be use. You need this because you don't know when you might take photos in public and want to sell it or use it.

2. You should keyword your photos because you want to get buyers attentions by using word that are emotional, bonding, beauty. Don't spam your keywords, it will hurt your work as a photographer.

3. You have to be carful about shooting band names and logos because the it does not belong to you it belongs to the people that made them. If not carful you well get rejected by the photos that you take.

4. Saving space can help when taking landscaping photography or anything else because it applies to compositions rules when taking them. By that when using text to express the photo there might or not be room for the text its self.


5. They like Royalty Free images because they don't have to worry about anyone claiming the image.

6. You should be carful when using Royalty images because other people can use the same thing that you chose but in a different way.

7. An alternative is doing right managed stock, its licensed and you will be safe when conflict arises.

8. Royalty free images are photos that are not licensed for taking photos, while Rights managed is licensed and carefully watched on what they do to sell the photo.


9. An legal issue that i never thought before is "If I photograph a large group of people and plan to sell the picture, would I need model releases from every person?"

10. This is a interesting legal issue to me because i don't when i will take photos in big or small events and need everybody to sign a model releases when i take the photos. Also i need to know if it is ok for me to take and sell the photo.

Part II

We often see flowers, fruits, or bowls. 

A thing that photographers should consider doing when taking still life photos is that you should look at the lighting. This is because you don't know how it will turn out to be when you take the photo, it can come out dark or there can be shadows when the shot is taken.

Having a good Aperture is great because you need to know how much light you want in the photos or how much light you don't want in the photo so it can look great when it comes out.

Having a small aperture is useful because it will increase the exposer time.  

Part III

I could do stock photography of instruments.

Magazine companies, photographers would be interested in stock photography.

Commercial photographers should considered this because it can help you on your skills as a photographer and you don't know you might get into this kind of things. Or clients might want some stock photography hanging around there house.

Part IV
Some objects that i can use as still life is my violin and bows, chess.

If I group these objects together it would make up a person or describes what that persons likes to do.

I could change the background of the photo by placing the items in a different spot or change the settings of the photos. Rearrange the items to make it look good, so it can blind in with its environment.

First Free Shoot

 This is my little brother Caleb, The photo is to be surprise on getting a gift(Bottom Left corner).

 Little brother Caleb, This is trying to look cute and a little sad.

Little brother Caleb, This would be, what you do when you are in a good mood.

I'm happy about that i was able to get the photo in balance with its environment, so it will go well with the photo. What I would do differently is that i would choose a good timing during the day to take the photos, and make my subject do different styles in showing emotion to bring out the photo. Also take the photos in a different angle. The thing that i learned is that I'm able to take photos that try to blend in with its environment, also that i should choose a good time during the day to take the photos.
