    There's definitely a basement section... lol. Literally, my last event shoot had a basement where a lot was going on. Remembered it half way through... not too late fortunately! Great tips all around, Mik!

    Love your videos and overall no nonsense approach. Question. What’s your recommendation on how to find second shooter gigs for a past first shooter that doesn’t need the full responsibility? Thank you.

    I'll definitely grab something off that $1 menu! 😂
    Jokes aside, this is something I'm still kind of feeling out as I go. I think I'm fairly good about it overall, but there have definitely been times where I got overfocused on where the energy was, or didn't quite get a shot of everyone.
    I think also tend to be a bit more okay when not necessarily getting a shot of every single person, unless it's a type of event where everyone in attendance has some sort of personal / emotional connection with the client. The events I cover tend to have a mix of people who are VERY comfortable being photographed and will go out of their way to play to my camera, and also people who actively want to avoid being photographed.
    That said, I don't know if my approach is necessarily correct, and maybe some of those times, I should be looking to get a photo or two of the more introverted people when otherwise I'd normally give them their space. What do you think?

    • @MikMilman
      @MikMilman  Рік тому +1

      Yeah..
      I should say that getting a shot of everyone in attendance is a good goal to have, but not necessarily necessary. Its very natural to have more shots of people playing up to the camera, having a ton of fun and showing it, etc.

    No photo assignment remains unchanged on the first day of shooting. I like to get a shot list that I can refer to and communicate well with the client.

    You bring up a point when you mention keeping your bad shots just in case you don't have a better one.
    I'm often torn in this regard when you take a photo and the person knows you took the photo so you know they're going to look for It.
    But it's not necessarily a great photo. if it's terrible I won't use it.
    But if it's so so I'm torn and feel I need to include it so at least they can see for themself it wasn't Worth much. if they don't see it they're not going to realize and just wonder why I lost it. It's a delicate situation. Any further guidance?

    Mik - The other day you asked about questions we have for you. Here you go: How do you manage event photography in full sun when there is limited shade available? Do you use flash and if so, what are your techniques? Thanks!

    • @MikMilman
      @MikMilman  Рік тому +5

      In those situations I look to backlight my subjects by positioning myself appropriately. I'm not a fan of fill flash, so I do not use it unless absolutely necessary.

    Having 1 issue, using Aperture mode make moving person blurry, what is the alternative pls let me know

    • @MikMilman
      @MikMilman  7 місяців тому

      Your camera is selecting a slower shutter speed because your aperture is not wide enough. Try opening it up further and if it's all the way open, raise your iso. Some cameras will allow you to set a limit to what shutter speed can be selected, I believe. Personally, I don't have any use for this. I'm accustomed to just keeping an eye on my shutter speed even if I'm in aperture priority.
