Happy Cinco de Mayo! It’s not a real holiday. America loves to steal culture as an excuse to get drunk during the week.
Anyway! We’re looking at your fashion photos this week, and some of you nailed it! Some of you tried to sneak in regular portraits, or really nice shots that weren’t fashion! I didn’t let lots of those in.
- The “affordable” Leica M-D
- We are borrowing the Canon 1DX II sdp.io/1DX2 you’ll see our video on it soon
- Phantom 4 quadcopter sdp.io/P4. We’ll be testing it out in California in a few weeks.
Ok, we get into your fashion photos here, these are our notable submissions:
- garbage bag dress
- contrast (good for next week!)
- monster street fashion

Let’s go over to me for your questions:
- How do you pose for fashion? Frame the object/garment or post naturally? Depends on the model and what you’re shooting.
- When would you use exposure compensation? When a subject is backlit, to expose for the subject. You should be using automatic shutter speed otherwise.
- Where’d you get your shirt, Tony? You look fresh.
Okay over to a portfolio review. Great portfolio, Vladimir! No real feedback.
Now to Chit-Chat!
