www.silberstudios.tv Today we're talking with well-known Burning Man photographer Patrick Roddie on Advancing Your Photography. Roddie is a self-taught photographer and he shares some tips for portrait photography that he's learned while shooting his Burning Man photos for the past 13 years. Patrick doesn't follow a strict checklist of techniques when it comes to photographing people. Instead, he focuses on connecting with people and capturing the moment. He learned photography by taking pictures of "stuff", and wasn't sure how to approach and take pictures of people. But if you are comfortable with and trust yourself, portraits are much easier than you think! Roddie approaches every portrait by maintaining eye contact with his subject as he frames the photo in his mind and raises his camera to quickly take the shot. If you worry too much about lenses or F-Stops, etc, you might miss the decisive moment!
