Description

In this episode, I'll be sharing my camera settings for indoor and outdoor photography sessions. It's important to note that these settings are not one-size-fits-all and may vary depending on your camera, lenses, location, and lighting conditions. I'll provide specific settings for outdoor sessions, indoor sessions, and studio sessions, including ISO, aperture, shutter speed, and white balance.

Additionally, I'll discuss the importance of shooting in manual mode and underexposing to capture more detail in post-editing.

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Camera settings depend on the camera, lenses, location, and lighting conditions.
• ISO should be as low as possible while still providing enough light.
• Aperture (f-stop) can be kept low for most sessions to let in more light.
• Shutter speed affects the amount of detail captured and should be adjusted for movement.
• Shooting in Kelvin white balance allows for more control over tones and skin tones.
