The question I have chosen is: How can I take professional photos using my camera? What apps can I use to edit these photos? 

The reason I have decided to choose photography is since high school, I have had the opportunity to take photos for the yearbook. Before graduating, I bought a camera to learn how to take quality pictures for different events. Unfortunately, I never fully grasped how to properly use the camera, forcing me only to use auto mode when taking pictures. I am hoping from this project, I will be able to understand and use the various methods on the camera as well as find user-friendly apps to edit pictures. With each post, I will have a challenge that I must find the answer to before submitting my post. The camera I will be using is a Nikon D610 with lenses 24-85 mm and 50 mm.

Ideas for what I can post about: 

  • How will I use manual mode to take my pictures? What are the benefits to using this mode over auto? 
  • Is it necessary to edit photos? 
  • What apps are user-friendly that allow quality edits to photos? 
  • How does posing affect photos? 
  • Different photography shots and when to use them
  • Portrait photography  
  • Nature photography 
  • Photojournalism
