Just wana share some pics taken recently at majlis cukur jambul for my colleague's daughter. Comel kanak2 disitu. Unexpectedly, dapat extra upah ambil gamba plak tu. Gamba biasa2 je pun..tapi, nak tenkiu jugaklah. Anyway, lessons learned from my first freelance photog experience are:
1) Always arrive to the event atleast half an hour early. To get to know the surroundings and people, i.e. family & close frens & spots, is essential part of taking pics in any event.
2) Stay alert, take initiative and be creative in getting the angle views. Always take positions earlier whenever your instinct tells you that there is going to be a moment to be captured. Aritu luper nak cuba amik top view dari tangga.
3) Stay informed with the agenda of the event. The agenda gives a holistic view in mind on what pics to be taken in an events that makes the photo album more meaningful and complete as if nothing is left missing.
4) Be open dan ringan mulut bertanya. Atleast orang2 kat majlis tu rasa tak segan sgt dan sedikit selesa dengan kehadiran photog yang nak amik gambo candid mereka.
5) Most importantly, know how to cope with your camera settings. As for mine, for indoor: with flash=TTL mode, ISO=200, Mode=Manual, Shutter=125, Aperture=Depends. For outdoor: no flash, ISO=200, Mode=Programmed (Shutter & Aperture adjusted accordingly). Sebenarnye, suke ati, no restrictions to whatever settings you have in your camera as long as the pics turned out gorgeous!
