On Campus


80 degrees in Springfield on Campus at Evangel! Today was a blast!
And I received some invaluable feedback on working with aperture and depth of field! I have to share some awesome excerpts (just in case there are any beginners out there with me) from team Megan & Mike Powers--they are an amazing photographers :

  • "If you always focus on the eyes for portraits they will look much sharper because people look at eyes in portraits--there is an auto focus setting that you can focus on the eyes and then move the frame and not change the focus"
  • "If the light allows, you can try to put some distance between the subject and the background and close the aperture a little (like 2.0 instead of 1.4). This will make the depth of field bigger and make it easier to focus on the subject while keeping the background blurred." 
  • "if I want the subject and their environment or a really sharp focus I use as high an aperture as I can depending on the light."
