If you're wishing to take your photography skills to the next level by trying your hand at boudoir or glamour photography, you're going to have to learn how to shoot photos in low light. Perfect your low light photography skills and you would be well on your way to a career in professional glamour photography.

Shooting in low light is challenging. The good news is that huge improvements have been made in photographic technology that has improved a camera's ability to capture images in dark settings. These new tools maximize your chances of success as an artistic photographer.

Your job is hard enough as it is shooting in low light; don't aggravate the difficulty by simply holding the camera in your hand. Instead, use a tripod or, at the very least, brace yourself or the camera against a solid surface such as a door jamb or low wall. This will help steady the camera as you take your shots.

Professional glamour photography requires a soft, gauzy (but not blurry) look to the finished product. Slow shutter speed can contribute to blurry photos, so increase your camera's ISO setting to help increase the shutter speed. You'll also want to carefully add light to avoid the "snapshot" look to your work. Take your camera's hot shoe flash and angle its head to bounce the light off a nearby bright surface, such as a wall or ceiling. This is better than directing the flash right on your subject; bouncing it off a nearby surface softens the light and gives your subject the soft glow that is a hallmark of professional glamour photography.

If you're an artistic photographer who uses a simple point and shoot camera with a built in flash, set your camera to its "night scene" setting. Your flash will go off while allowing the background light to "burn in" so that your photo won't look as if it was shot in a cave. You'll definitely need to hold the camera steady for these shots and you can help yourself do so by placing your feet in the 5 o'clock and 10 o'clock positions, with your left foot forward and your right foot back. This extra-wide stance will help keep you from wobbling as you take your shots.

Professional glamour photography requires pressing the shutter button softly but firmly. You also need to hold your camera steady until the firing sequence is done. Don't put your camera down until the shot is secured because most cameras have a bit of a delay in their shooting. An artistic photographer knows that if they put the camera down before it's completely done taking a shot; they could get a "smeared" look to the photo instead of the desired "soft" appearance.

Problems with vivitar DF 22 for canon EOS 1000d?

Ok, so i bought a vivitar DF 22 external bounce flash for my canon EOS 1000d, when i attach the flash to the hot shoe and make sure its on correctly, the camera doesn't recognise it, i tried to take a picture with the flash on obvs i put working batteries in it and waited for it to build up the charge to make a flash, but when i pressed the shutter after i let it focus, there was no flash, i pulled it back slightly, tried it again and it worked, it just doesn't tell me when the 'auto' is ok and it doesn't sync with the camera. so i ask if anyone else has had this problem and i also ask how (if you did) to resolve the problem other than messing aound with the connection.

any and all help welcome cheers

OK, 2nd try, Yahoo ate my first response.

The DF22 is (supposed to be) fully compatible with your Canon and ETTL metering. This is a good thing. So, there are a few things to try before you send it back.

1st, make sure the flash you have is actually for the Canon flash mount. If you look at the shoe on your camera, there are 5 contacts. 1 large center contact, and 4 smaller contacts in a square, towards the eyepiece. Look at the bottom of your flash, and make sure the pins are in that same arrangement. If they are not exactly the same, your flash is made for a different brand of camera, and isn't going to do you much good. Send it back and get the proper Canon mount version.

2nd, if the flash has the proper pins, clean the contacts on both the flash and the camera. Use a pencil eraser and rub all 5 contact points, and all 5 pins. Clean off any debris. Make sure none of the debris gets stuck under the lip of the hot shoe. Now mount the flash, turn everything on, put the camera in green-box auto, and fire off a few shots.

3rd, if that doesn't make it all better, get into the menu of your camera. The mode dial will have to be on P,A,S, or M for this. FInd the flash control menu, and make sure it is set to ETTL. Check the flash as well, and make sure it is set to ETTL. It may not even have the option to change it, but never hurts to look. Put the camera in P mode, and try it again.

If it still doesn't work, the flash or the camera is probably defective. Most likely the flash. Send it back.
