By Justine Hall While marriage is the beginning of the lives of the bride and groom as one, their wedding day is the conclusion of months of preparation. Every couple knows that regardless of how modestly or extravagantly they celebrate their wedding, it's the product of a thorough planning, which includes a prenuptial photo session wherein the couple get together and smile before the camera weeks or months before their wedding date. Some may think that it is just a trend, but pre-wedding photography has been around for a very long time. Even our parents and grandparents had a prenuptial photo shoot. However, it is only during the recent years that it has escalated in popularity. A growing number of engaged Singapore couples opt to pose together for the camera prior to their wedding day nowadays, perhaps because they've seen the wisdom of doing so. Pre-wedding shoots are like the getting to know stage of the couple and the photographer. It's a great opportunity...

By Chad Nixom To be the best in any field, you need to know what your competition is going. Keep an eye on what your competitors are adding to their portrait photography business, what new markets they're moving in to. If you know what they're going to do, you also know what holes are being left for you to exploit. Here are some tips to help you figure out their game plan so that you can improve yours. Never let anyone, an individual or another portrait photography business, push you around. If one of your workers keeps giving you a hard time, simply fire them. You are the boss and everyone must realize and respect that. If another business is fighting dirty you should challenge them while operating in a fair way yourself.

By George Smith Photoshop plugin, The Golden Ratio, Golden Ratio Throughout modern history artists and mathematicians have been fascinated by a special proportion known as the golden ratio, or golden section as it is also called. It has the special feature that if you divide a line into two sections, a larger A and a smaller B, according to the golden ratio, then A is to B as A+B is to A. Numerically it is about 1: 1.618. Artists and architects, even musicians, have used the golden ratio as a basis for their paintings and buildings, or music. The golden ratio has, more than any number in the history of mathematics, inspired thinkers of all disciplines. It has inspired men for at least 2.400 years since Pythagoras and Euklid in ancient Greece. Amongst the prominent thinkers, who have pondered the golden ratio, we can mention Leonardo of Pisa, Johannes Kepler and the present day physicist Roger Penrose. It has fascinated biologists, artists, musicians, architects, psychologists ...

By Danny Hoyle Photoshop plugins load into Photoshops Filter menu when Photoshop launches. They add all sorts of extra functions to Photoshop. In the old days Photoshop plugins were just a bunch of weird effects. Recently a number of plugins have been produced, that do sophisticated image retouching that would otherwise be impossible or very time consuming in Photoshop. Photoshop has since begun to offer functions similar to some of the old plugins, like lens correction and proper black-white conversion. It is easy to install plugins into Photoshop. Adobe Photoshop installs with a folder called Plug-Ins inside the Photoshop folder. Simply place the plugins there. Launch Photoshop and the menu Filters will have your plugins listed. The new plugins will show up the next time you launch Photoshop. So if it was running when you installed the plugins, you will have to quit and relaunch Photoshop. The plugins can in fact be installed in any folder you want, not just Photoshop's ...

By Adriana Sharp Oil fresh paint is certainly an incredible versatile medium. It might be used in a thick buttery fashion or thinned lower with a watery consistency. This versatility makes way to a number of painting techniques. My own, personal preference should be to begin my oil works of art beginning with drawing the composition using acrylic fresh paint or with water-soluble oil offers. The most used method of oil painting should be to thin the brand new fresh paint with turpentine to use your first layers. Turpentine is very toxic that we opt to not apply it. Acrylic or water-soluble oil offers may be thinned lower with common water and they are more enjoyable to take advantage of personally. You may also start your oil painting beginning with drawing your composition. There's also a number of drawing mediums realistically work quite nicely with oil offers. My two faves are vine charcoal and water-soluble pens. I love vine charcoal because it does not smudge like o...

By Luke Walker Perhaps you are interested in eventually building your very own home photography studio. Let's look at some useful tips on how to go about this. First and foremost, you're best off using a fairly small sized room with neutral white walls. White walls ensure that the light remains uncolored, so that the person you are photographing doesn't get subjected to any coloration by the light (imagine if your walls were neon yellow for example...). You may have a soft box, an umbrella, or both in the room. A soft box is a small box that connects on top of the flash, the small flash tube fires its light out, which is reflected from the insides of the walls of the soft box before passing through a translucent material that goes over the front of the soft box, shattering the light in all directions. An umbrella is very similar to a soft box with the main difference being that some of the light coming from the flash is able to pass through it, and the rest ref...
