Photography composition can be very challenging, and in wedding photography it can be even more complicated. In the first article I talked about horizontal and vertical format. In this article I am going to introduce a technique that can help you compose your images.
Once we have decided whether vertical or horizontal, we are on our way to composing a pleasing image. Everyone knows the basic rule not to put your subject in the dead center. So where do we put the wedding couple? If it is a portrait, and you are cropping pretty tight, sometimes you can put them just off center, and fill the rest of the frame with background that is hopefully pleasing to the eye, or at the very least background that is not distracting. If you are shooting 2.8, the background will be out of focus. You are then just looking for shapes or colors that compliment the wedding couple and the photo as a whole.
Now if you are not shooting a close-cropped portrait, but an image where you want to show an attractive background, things get a bit more complicated. There are many different theories for composing landscape photography, some even go all the way back to the paintings of the ancient Greeks. I suggest you look up “The Golden Mean”, and “The Rule of Two Thirds” and try them out in your photography and see if it fits your style. In this article I am going to introduce a simplified version of the rule of two thirds.
For this simplified version, imagine there are tic tac toe lines on your viewfinder, that is two lines across, and two down. The points of interest in your image should fall on one of the intersection point of these lines. As you can see there are four points of intersection/four possible points to put your elements of interest. With images with attractive landscapes you need to remember that your wedding couple is just one of the elements of interest in your photo. Lets continue with the lake and mountain peak example. Without the wedding couple, maybe the mountain peak as an element of interest would fall on one of these intersection points. If we insert the wedding couple, we may need to recompose this image so that it is they that fall on one of these points. Which point? Try different ones, and fill the frame with a composition that looks nice. Apply the same question “What am I gaining by having this other stuff in the frame?” So maybe the lake should be in frame, but a bunch of dead trees no.
I hope these techniques can help you in your wedding photography. In the next article in this series I am going to talk about another technique in composition. Thanks for reading!

One of the most basic things in photography is knowing how to compose your images. Composing a lake with a mountain in the background can be challenging enough, but what makes wedding photography a bit more complicated is that a wedding couple needs to be inserted into the frame as well. I have written four articles to help you compose your images at weddings. In these articles I will talk about choosing horizontal or vertical format, different techniques of composition, and lastly, two devices to help make your images more complex. In this first article I am going to offer some suggestions to help you choose to shoot an image horizontally or vertically.
One of the first things to think about to compose your image is whether the photo will be horizontal or vertical. These formats are also called landscape and portrait. Don’t get to hung up on these names though, I shoot plenty of good landscape shots vertically, and wedding portraits horizontally. So how do I decide which to use? To decide if I am going to shoot horizontal or vertical, I always ask myself the question “What am I gaining by shooting this subject horizontally or vertically?” To apply this question to your photography you can start by shooting one image horizontal, one vertical, when trying to frame your subject. Then look at these two images and ask yourself what is this picture gaining by having all the other stuff that isn’t the subject in frame.
Using the example above of a wedding couple with a mountain and lake, if shot horizontal and there is a tree on one side of the couple, is this tree a bonus, or is it distracting? If shooting vertical, if the sky is in the frame, is it an attractive or interesting sky, or is it all blown out? What are you gaining by having the sky in frame? Ask yourself this question critically. Remember that sometimes-empty space in the frame is a bonus.
After some time comparing these two images every time you shoot, you can start doing it mentally before you even put the viewfinder up to your eye. I see the wedding couple and what is around them and ask myself this question “What am I gaining…” and then decide to shoot vertical or horizontal. Only after I have decided, do I then start to carefully frame my subject.
I hope this has helped you how to decide whether to compose your image horizontally or vertically. In the next three articles I introduce different composition techniques as well as devices to help you compose your photos. Thanks for reading!

I have written a series of four articles to help you with your composition in wedding photography. In the first two articles I talked about horizontal and vertical composition, as well as a technique of composition based on the rule of two thirds. In this article I am going to introduce another simplified technique of composition also based on the rule of two thirds.
In this technique you must divide your frame in thirds (either horizontal or vertical) and fill two thirds with one element of interest, and the remaining third with another element of interest. Lets again imagine our original example of a landscape with a lake and a mountain. We can compose the mountain to fill two thirds, and the lake the remaining third, or vice versa. As you can see, whichever element fills the two thirds of the frame will be the dominant element of the photo. The photo may either be a big majestic mountain with a quaint lake below, or a beautiful mountain lake with a distant mountain peak. Add the wedding couple, and we can imagine a photo where they occupy two thirds with a distant peak in the background, or a photo with the peak taking up two thirds, and the wedding couple in the last third below. As you can see, the wedding couple may be part of the lake element, i.e., two-thirds mountain element, one-third lake and couple element.
These two techniques illustrate the most important concept at work here in composition: there may be many elements of interest, but one of them is dominant. This is vital for your photo to have balance. You should not have two elements of interest competing to be the main subject. It is either the mountain, or the couple. The photo should not be composed so that one half is the couple, and one half the mountain.
This is at work in all the techniques. In a close-cropped portrait, it is obvious the couple is the dominant element; the background is pleasing but not distracting nor vying for attention. With the first version of the rule of thirds, if the couple is on one of the intersection points, it is obvious that they are not the main element. The landscape is the main element in this technique; the wedding couple is just a compliment.
I hope this technique helps you with your wedding photography composition. In the next and last article of the series I will continue talking about the idea of balance in composition, as well as introduce two devices to improve your wedding photography.

I have written this series of four articles to help you with your composition in wedding photography. As I stated in the other articles, composition can be a daunting task. This is made even more challenging when you add a wedding couple to the composition. I ended the last article introducing the idea of balance to composition. To quickly review, I said that there are many elements to a photo. One of these elements needs to be the dominant element. The wedding couple is an element of the photo; it does not necessarily need to be the dominant element. You can imagine a photo where a sunset is the dominant element, and the silhouette of the wedding couple is just a compliment.
Another way to imagine this idea is with a photo opportunity we see a lot in wedding photography: a big blossoming tree. We cannot have the wedding couple in one half of the photo and the tree in the other half. The tree or the couple needs to be the main element. Maybe the tree is the main element and takes up most of the frame, with the couple complimenting the tree on an intersection point. Likewise, if the couple is the main element of the photo, the tree can still loom over them a little, but it needs to be out of focus so as to not vie for equal attention.
To end this series of articles concerning wedding photography composition, I am going to mention two techniques that can further help you. The first is framing your wedding couple with something in the photo. A doorway, window or pagoda, etc., can be used in the photo to frame your couple. You can see this technique a lot in photos of a bride putting on make up with a mirror in the photo used to frame her face. Be creative with this technique and use interesting objects or shapes as framing devices.
The second technique is using leading lines to your wedding couple. Imagine a set of train tracks in an image used to lead the viewer to look at the subject at the end of the tracks. These lines are leading the eye to the subject. At a wedding a railing may be composed so that it leads the eye to the wedding couple. As with the technique above I encourage you to be creative with this. The object used doesn’t need to be a straight physical object; it could suggest the idea of a line. It may be the way people are positioned, such that they seem to form a line. Or in a field of flowers, you may realize that there are flowers of the same color that make a line that leads to your couple. Again, be creative and have fun with these techniques.
I hope you enjoyed these four articles on wedding composition and found them useful. Thanks again for reading!

Caricatures are exciting to check out. Actually, they’re contained in editorial cartoons and newspapers that they often make the person or the image more desirable even though distortions happen to be intentionally produced in drawing the caricature.
Learning how to make caricatures can be a little challenging obviously. If a person who are able to draw a portrait just as what it’s in the photograph could be impressive, what of the individual who can distort a portrait but nonetheless in a position to retain its identifying factors.
Indeed, despite the fact that caricatures are distorted plus some features are drawn with exaggeration, you can still identify and recognize the person being drawn. Which makes it spectacular for caricature artists. If you wish to learn this skill, listed here are simple stuff that will help you.
Learn how to draw a portrait. A caricature begins with drawing a portrait because the caricature is basically a portrait that has been distorted but the most important thing in this process would be to learn to draw in proportion so that you can easily become familiar with a style that you can later use on how to make caricatures.
Pay attention to the where one can make bold lines. Caricatures look more of a cartoon than portraits thus, you can actually make use of bold lines in making your caricatures. Use shadows as well but don’t make them too dark, sufficient to show the depth and define the face area of your subject.
Among the elements of drawing a caricature is learning how you can exaggerate or distort your drawing without losing the identifying marks from the image.
Determine the identifying options that come with the face area that you’re attempting to exaggerate. If you’re creating a caricature of someone, attempt to look at the picture and identify what features of the face jumps at you. It’s really a double chin, round eyes or perhaps a distinct smile. With one of these features in mind, after that you can attempt to exaggerate aspects of a subject’s face to obtain a good caricature. You may do that in trial and error particularly if you are still learning, but make sure that you can now still identify the topic after the exaggeration. This, of course, is the essence of caricatures.
Have a trip over each detail from the face, like the nose and drawing all of them with exaggeration or drawing the chin or the mouth. Most often, caricatures have big heads and small necks or small bodies, thus you may also explore on drawing your subject in smaller bodies as well.
Although learning how to make caricatures could be a real challenge, you are able to however learn this skill with constant practice. You may need a detailed guide and a good manual that will help you learn everything of it. it’s also good to understand from someone who has been drawing caricatures professionally to be able to also learn a few of their styles and methods.
Now, let’s discuss about Caricature Secrets created by Mitch Bowler and how it might help you. I hope this short Caricature Secrets Review will assist you to differentiate whether Caricature Secrets is Scam or a Genuine.
Great artists, the most experienced, continue to be constantly learning… still constantly hungry for additional understanding of improving their craft. Three CDs loaded filled with almost 9 hours of video content which will educate you on all you need to learn about drawing caricatures, there is however also a lot more that you’ll learn along the way as Mitch have added many artist tips in to the lessons which will forever alter the method in which you appear at human faces – making the entire process amazingly easy, and providing you with skills that you’ll keep forever, and affect a myriad of various and imaginative uses. You’ll begin researching the various tools you should use after which get directly into examining the fundamental options that come with the face area. From there become familiar with about proportions and what must be done to produce a good likeness of the subject. Next, become familiar with some artist mindset exercises can help you through any challenges which you may meet. Lastly, you’ll cover the differences between women and men of every age group. Lots of people took this program. This program has changed as our biological forebears can begin to see the human head as well as just how much it’s improved their drawing. Understanding how to Draw Caricatures Hasn’t So much easier.

So you love antique tapestries! Well- who doesn’t? But how many of us can afford them? From Sotheby’s to Christies auction houses, most antique tapestries, depending on their age, size and condition can run $30,000 +++. A recent auction sale at Sotheby’s for an antique tapestry called Chasse au Faucon (The Falcon Hunt) from the 16th century went for 1.1 million dollars.
Often, these wall hanging Tapestries have undergone extensive repair, due to abuse over the years. A properly repaired antique tapestry will have a professional weaver re-weave the damaged areas, matching the colors well. An improperly repaired antique tapestry will have a matching fabric glued to the back of the damaged area and the tapestry face threads arranged so the hole is no longer visible. This of course, will significantly reduce the value of the antique tapestry (sometimes rendering almost valueless).
So what is best? Purchase an antique tapestry, or have a custom tapestry reproduced following the same pattern? Well, if you can find a well preserved antique tapestry and have the financial where with all, then of course, an antique tapestry is the way to go. But if you are like most of us, want the effect of an antique tapestry in our home, but cannot afford the $$$$$, a custom tapestry, hand woven in 100% wool , or combined wool and silk is the answer. For example, the same Chasse au Faucon (The Falcon Hunt) that sold at Sotheby’s for 1.1 million can be purchased from Heirloom European Tapestries as a reproduction. It is a hand woven tapestry, using the same technique as the antique version, woven one thread at a time on a loom. However, it retails for around $2600. Of course the size is smaller, and the yarn threads are new – but the effect is wonderful! http://www.tapestries-inc.com/view_product.php?sku=823-A-1 Additionally you can have a hand woven tapestry, custom made to your specifications, of any scene, for that special space in your home, office, etc. Colors can be matched to drapes, furniture, and carpets, whatever. The choice is yours! And you can always call the Heirloom European tapestries experts for advice 1-800-699-6836, or visit the website www.tapestries-inc.com.

If you’re hitting the road this fall for color, try a new perspective: glass.
A collegial fraternity of artisans awaits on the Pennsylvania Glass Trail, an arts venture established in 2006 that connects the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts in Reading — the largest and most comprehensive interactive arts center of its kind in the country — with numerous glass studios along Route 222 or side roads from Lancaster to the Lehigh Valley.
In the next couple of years, five more artists in nearby Bucks County and Philadelphia may be added to the trail.
On the first weekend in December, tourists can watch artists work in their studios, purchase glass and learn about the various techniques used to create art from a hot, soupy liquid or fusing strips of glass together in a process called slumping and flame working, which is done with a lamp.
The best place to start on the trail is the GoggleWorks, a large campus of six brick buildings that house a hot glass shop, a darkroom, a ceramics studio and a kiln.
The center’s name comes from its earlier life as the Wilson Goggles factory, which made optical glass for eyewear, including sunglasses, safety goggles and high-altitude oxygen masks for military pilots. After it closed in 2002, Al Boscov, the department store founder, decided that restoring the brick buildings could spark a renaissance of Reading’s blighted downtown.
Several years ago, Boscov took Diane LaBelle, who was running an arts center in Bethlehem called the Banana Factory, on a tour of the buildings, which offer 145,000 square feet of space.
“He saw what the Banana Factory had done to revitalize South Bethlehem,” said LaBelle, who holds a degree in architecture from Carnegie Mellon University.
After a $15 million restoration, the GoggleWorks opened in 2005. Its rooms crackle with activity as 300 children arrive for classes and 34 artists work in second- and third-floor studios that they rent.
From the GoggleWorks, here are some other high points on the trail.
Drive east from Reading to the picturesque community of Boyertown where Will Dexter works at his hot glass studio Taylor Backes.
An amiable man with a youthful face, blue eyes, red hair and an engaging grin, Dexter has blown glass since 1974. His studio created 600 basket weave style glass blocks for the lights at the new Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, where the Academy Awards are handed out each year.
“They didn’t understand the word budget. It was so cool,” he said.
Dexter makes large, sculptural pieces in rich blues and greens that echo his boyhood by the water.
With a team of three full-time assistants, he is creating 138 architectural glass blocks for Aliana, a new, 2,000-acre community being built south of Houston, Texas. Aliana will have eight residential buildings, two golf courses, the Houston Polo Club and commercial office buildings.
He and his team also are making 68 glass lantern panels with the letter A. By day, the A in the glass blocks will be yellow and surrounded by aqua; at night, the A will turn gold and be surrounded by a field of pink.
These optical effects are created by dichroic glass, which was invented for NASA and used in the aerospace industry. Dichroic glass has a transmitted color and a different reflected color because certain wavelengths of light pass through ultra-thin layers of metal oxides inside the glass and the hues change depending on the angle of your view.
Drive about an hour north and east to Bethlehem to meet Peter Wayne Yenawine, whose broad, handsome face is topped by a mane of silvery hair. Founder of Crystal Signatures, Yenawine started his career as a designer for Steuben, where he insisted on learning to blow as well as design glass.
“Process was very critical to me,” Yenawine said, adding that he knew he could not become an accomplished designer unless he worked with glass.
He eventually went to work for Baccarat and the Franklin Mint. He has created pieces for most of the fine crystal companies in the world and seven White House administrations.
“Crystal is alive. To me, crystal is the only material that’s truly kinetic,” he said, because it reflects light through prisms.
The Lehigh River flows through Bethlehem and you must cross it to reach South Bethlehem. Pittsburgh’s South Side attracts the young, hip and creative; so does South Bethlehem.
That happened after the Banana Factory, a restored banana warehouse that’s now a mecca for artists, opened in January 1998.
Famed for its First Friday evening open houses, the Banana Factory opened its glass shop in 2006. It features a 350-pound pot inside a natural gas furnace, three work benches, large cylindrical reheating chambers, four annealers that are used to cool glass and a kiln for slumping and fusing glass. A jewelry studio just opened at the factory and there are 28 artists in residence on the building’s second and third floors.
Be Smart, a program for 100 middle school students, teaches youngsters ceramics, glass blowing, graphic design and video production. Four interns from Temple’s Tyler School of Art arrive each year to learn how to teach, run a glass studio, care for equipment and acquire college credit.
“Our main goal is to cultivate future glass artists,” said John Choi, who manages the Banana Factory’s glass studio.
At its fire and ice gala on Oct. 17, the Banana Factory will highlight the work of Paul Marioni, a cerebral Seattle artisan whose work is inspired by his dreams.
Jeff Parks, president of ArtsQuest, which owns and operates the Banana Factory, likes the concept of a glass trail, although awareness about the effort appears to be limited.
“I cannot honestly say we have seen a marked number of people coming to the Banana Factory because they have heard about the glass trail.”
But there are artists well worth your time, such as the stained glass work of Karen Lesniak at the GoggleWorks; Greenwood Stained Glass, which makes glass for churches and buildings in its Topton studio; and Neff-Chattoe Co., founded in 1903, the oldest stained glass studio in Allentown. Stephen Rich Nelson, whose studio is called The Glassman, is known for jewel-toned art glass and stunning glass goddesses.

Having the right black tattoo ink pigments is more of a challenge than artists originally foresee. There are many different uses for black tattoo ink pigments and finding the best tattoo ink for the job requires experience and knowing the products. You also need to be prepared for what tattoo style you may be requested to complete as a tattoo artist.

Using a Zuper Black for deep black and fill ins or the all new Suluape Black from INTENZE products is recommended black tattoo inks for use in tribal tattoo work.
As you advance your tribal and deep black skills you will also need to use black tattoo ink for shading of your tattoos as well. Black and white portraits are an example of using a black to shade in your tattoo. This style of work can also be referred to as black and grey tattoo work. The tattoo ink pigments you use will certainly affect the outcome of your tattoo work. Try to find a thinner consistency pigment, but not as thin as a lining black tattoo ink for example.

The basic procedure that is undertaken for improving the digital photography is through the clipping path services. The defects are removed so that the image stays as perfect as possible. These are tools that are used in editing to bring in the desired effects. The clipping path can be used to retouch the image, error correction or improving and even changing the background to enhance the quality of the picture. Unwanted part of the picture is taken off and then the image can be changed to bring better coloring and texture. This type of process where the image or a picture is changed from the old set up to a new set up through a new path can give many dimensions to a photograph.
The background of the image can be changed to a different one. The lightening or highlighting the background or a complete retouching of the background is easy changes that can be done . The photograph of a particular object but the background makes the whole thing weak – then it is through the clipping path technology that the background is taken off and the image is set up in a different background. Thus if a photographer is taking a photo – the background will not pose any problem for him courtesy this unique technology. Though we may think that taking off the image or changing the background may be easy – it takes a professional to choose the right kind of background so that the image turns out to be much better.
The clipping paths thus are a unique tool with the professional photographers to give them new ideas and ways to improve the images and get the images to a different level. This gives a good result for the site owners as they get much improved images to upload them on the sites or to create a web site. The advertising agency and photo shops, publication industry and photography – all will be benefited when the professionals will use the clipping path tools to improve and retouch the images to take them to perfection. This will make the cost of production in digital imagery higher but the end results will justify the method to bring out the images to near perfection.
The art of making the image better has become an art and these are now reflected in logos and posters, pictures and other digital images. The Photoshop tools allow better visuals and the clients can use these tools to get effects on the images that they use in their businesses. There are different techniques – for example a background can be removed and replaced, an image can be improved to a silhouette to get the desired results, Photoshop tools can bring in quick masking and then extract filters or software is used for the effects. The manual tools from clipping path require artists to work with them. The professionals work with image formats like JPEG, TIFF, bitmap and PSD and put in much effort to get improved accuracy. The desktop publishing or the e-commerce, whatever is the industry – they are sure to get the benefit from using these tools and techniques.
