So finally I have ventured outside to take some outfit photos with Polly, and to be honest I was pretty disappointed. The photos were taken with my new Nikon D3200 and 35mm lens and as it was starting to get dark the light could have been better but I was most disappointed by the depth of field, when I'm taking close-ups the depth of field is really shallow and looks awesome, but the same does not occur with outfit post backdrops. I'm a photography student and should know this but does anyone have tips or tricks? I haven't tried A mode yet so I'll give that a go next time, but most likely I'll probably stick to taking photos in my top room!tboo
love amy x
I love the blouse and the diamond tattoo looks cute too :)
ReplyDeleteSorry, I can't be any help with camera stuff - I'm still trying to work mine out!

Ahhh love the leggings!
ReplyDeleteYeah to get it to have depth of field for full body shots you'd need a 50mm lens :) I'm saving up for one haha xx
I love this blouse! I havent looked on boohoo for ages, so guess what I am doing after I come off your blog... :-)
ReplyDeleteNo clue on the camera stuff, I got a new lens for mine at Christmas and at the moment its trial and error with photographs!

The pictures look good though, don't be too hard on yourself, nice to mix it up occasionally and shoot on location. But as mentioned above, of you could borrow and test out a 50mm lens and see if you prefer the results. I was pretty pleased with the depth of field when I done an editorial project on some people and needed the background to shallow out.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to cheat just blur the background out a little in photoshop. I don't know, but either way the images look good and the solid block of wall is a great minimal background choice.
I love those leggings :D xx
ReplyDeleteModify the F number on your camera when you're taking pictures, if you want a better depth of field.

I really like the photo tbh. I think the lack of light doesn't help. I have a Nikon D300 but with a 50mm lense and don't tend to have your problem, so all I can suggest is the lense? I'm by no mean a photographer though!

ReplyDeletethose leggings are quite stunning! i'm always too frightened to wear just leggings myself, but they look so nice on you! you styled them so nice! i also really love your tattoo. c: you always do up your nails so nice to match your outfits, it really adds the extra tough.

Your best bet is to buy a lens with a really low aperture setting like f1.8, or something thereabouts! I really want this one http://www.digitalrev.com/product/nikon-nikkor-af-50mm-f/MTM4Mg_A_A?googlebase=1&country=GB but it's a fixed zoom which is annoying, but the ones that aren't are hundreds! If not just try taking the pictures really far away and zoom loads, which should make the camera only focus on you as the further zoomed in, the lower the aperture! Ramble ramble ramble!
