“Since digital cameras came out I was one of the first photographers to go all in. I’d shot film for years and was ready for the digital revolution. My first Canon 5d was amazing. As I shot I discovered that a lot of the settings were designed for different types of photographers. Landscape, Nature, Sports, Adventure. But my specialty at the time was fashion. I learned quickly that my camera was not set up for that. Weddings were on my specialty list as well, so after attending WPPI for 10 years, I learned to visit my friends at the Canon booth. That’s were I learned to make changes in my menus that helped me shoot better. I discovered lots of simple settings to save battery life, help give me better exposures and made my life as a photographer much easier. The tech guys at Canon were a big help. It’s helpful to watch YouTube, but I was not a nature photographer, so it took me a while to get my camera set up to shoot my style of photography.”

These simple steps help your photos look better, get better results navigating through camera settings, save battery usage and solve focus challenges.
