My name is Scott Walter and I AM Scott Walter Photography. Thanks for visiting my site! I am based in North Texas and available for portraiture and events in the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex . I am also available for national and international destination photography.
I understand that there is more to taking pictures than just snapping a shutter. It is always my goal to capture the emotion and character of my subjects, so I strive to show the world who you truly are, not just what you look like.
In the past I had a separate site for my portfolio as well as my blog. As of today I decided to merge both into one site. Now you only have on place to go for everything related to Scott Walter Photography scotttakesphotos.com.
If you have any questions comments or concerns please give me a shout.
Perhaps Scott Walter Photography should promote Pet Photography. I really enjoy taking photos of my client’s pets. To some clients their pets are their kiddos.
This past weekend I did my first photo shoot of the new year, Diana and her grown up son David.
Christmas Cheer Recipe: Combine loads of good wishes, heart full of love and armfuls of hugs. Sprinkle with laughter and garnish with mistletoe. Top off with presents. Serves everyone!
I hope everyone has a happy and safe Christmas. We will be at a reduced staff between December 20th and the New Year. Next year we will have some great specials so check back soon!
Once again Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
You can take very good photographs of Christmas lights with inexpensive point and shoot cameras. The real trick with photographing christmas lights is the time of the day.
If you wait til its completely dark out then either the background or the lights will get blown out. You will want to arrive somewhere between sunset and when its completely dark out.
If your camera has a white balance setting (check your manual) you want to set it to the Tungsten settings. Most christmas lights are tungsten lights. Also make sure the flash doesn’t fire. You don’t want the bright flash ruining your pretty photographs
Since you will be photographing in low light you will need some steady support, otherwise you may get blurry photographs. If you don’t have a tripod, really anything will work from a bean bag to the top of your car.
Here are a few photos of the holiday season.
I have updated my portfolio page with additional categories: floral, landscape, and etc.
I will probably add an architecture portfolio pretty soon.
I have now integrated online proofing to scotttakesphotos.com. So now you have the option to have in home proofing or online proofing.
It’s really about customer service and giving my great clients choices and flexibility.
This evening I went to a local little carnival with members of the North Texas Photography Club. We had a lot of fun taking photos of the rides with their moving lights. Here are a few of the photos from the carnival.
