Welcome!
This blog will be documenting different tips and tricks for beginner photographers.

Note: I’m a Canon user so most tips and
references will be based off Canon cameras.
As a photo hobbyist /enthusiast I will be learning some new things as we go too!
I will be discussing a number of photo and camera terms, as well as providing links to helpful websites and before and after photos for all the visual people out there!
To get started, let’s define a few common terms…

I will be discussing a number of photo and camera terms, as well as providing links to helpful websites and before and after photos for all the visual people out there!
To get started, let’s define a few common terms…
- POINT AND SHOOT CAMERA : Simply
put it is a camera that doesn’t have any
detachable lenses. - DSLR = Digital single-lens reflex camera.
- ISO = a DSLR camera’s light sensitivity. Identified as a number rating on cameras, in increments of 100’s or 1000’s. ISO is one of the 3 things that helps your camera determine exposure, which will be discussed in future posts.
- SHUTTER SPEED = How fast your camera allows light to hit the camera’s sensor (the shutter opens and closes). Usually measured in seconds or fractions of a second. (Example 1/125, 30 seconds)
- APERTURE VALUE (AV) = A small opening within the camera that essentially helps control focus (usually measured in “ f stops “ which can be fractions or whole numbers - f1.4 or f2). Aperture is one of the 3 things that contributes to depth of field – which will also be discussed in further posts.
- CANDID = A style of photo that is not posed
Stay tuned for more posts!
