Top Photo Tips!
Straight Horizon
Make it interesting/unique
Take unique photos of boring things
Change the angle you shoot from (low, high, looking up or down etc)
Rule of thirds, keep the focus of your shot away from the center.
Get closer or further to add interest
Keep camera as still as possible
For action use higher shutter or sports modes
Play in different seasons and times of day with the same scene to get a feel for differences
Back up your photos!
Printing recommendations:
Photo prints:
Atlantic Photo Supply Halifax or Dartmouth
Costco Online
Vista Print
Blacks
*DO NOT use Walmart, Superstore, Staples, the quality is awful
Photobooks-
#1 Blurb. Download the Bookwright software for best options, also has an online version but the download is much easier to customize. Great quality, great service, sign up for emails and get 30-40% off sent to you on a regular basis. Can do huge numbers of pages, 240 pages at high quality. My top choice overall and for larger books.
#2 Photobook Canada – Great quality, always has deals online. My top choice for deals on smaller size books.
Canvas
bestcanvas.ca Good quality, great price
PosterJack
Vista Print
Costco online
Photo gifts- Costco, Vistaprint, photobook Canada are all ones I use on a regular basis.
Christmas Cards:- Vistaprint or Costco
Try Canva online for making cards, posters, announcements, collages, etc etc. Can be shared digitally or printed.
REMEMBER:
Back up photos!!!
