Happy Easter!!!

1. Look for patterns
    -A bunch of colors will make your images turn out impressive and beautiful! If you find repeating patterns or colors, this should be the jumping point for your images. You'll need to adjust your camera's setting. You should over-expose the pictures by using 1 to 1 1/2 stops for the most saturated colors.
2. Shoot Candidly
    -Be sure to capture easter egg dyeing or painting. Use a longer lens like a 80mm or 100mm. Turn your camera mode to AV, select a low ISO and a wide aperture. Allow the camera to do an automatic shutter speed. To fill in dark spots use an external flash.
3. Capture Expressions
    -Use an 80mm to 200mm zoom lens for flexibility and versatility. Expressions can make or break a photograph, so try not to be noticed while photographing. Keep your aperture around f/4 or f/5.6.
4. Simple Backgrounds
    -By having shallow, and therefore blurry, depth of field you can create separation between the main subject and the background. You'll need a telephoto lens of 200mm-400mm to obtain shallow depth of field when your outside.
5. Dress Right
    -If you pay attention to clothing style and how its worn, it will increase the production design of all your photos. Be sure to set the aperture at f/11 or f/16. This will ensure that your subject's clothing is sharp, the colors pop, and you'll be able to notice the spring background.

HAPPY EASTER!!!
