I woke up this morning to the most snow on the ground that I have ever seen in Dallas. They are calling for 2-4 inches of snow, it could be a record breaker. I went out during lunch and took these photos. Enjoy!

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.

Tip for Photographing Christmas Lights

admin — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 21:34:01 +0000

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.
