shabby chic

I have contacted a man on facebook about going to see his studio and taking photos of his furniture. I have gone to his furniture studio in Manchester to take photos of the shabby chick furniture for my project, I enjoyed taking the photos it was nice to chat to the furniture designer about his furniture.

This is one of the pieces of furniture from the store 

mac aperture 3.5

Mac aperture is a photo editing software that allows you to further enhance your images. The new features added to aperture 3.5 are;

• The mixture of aperture and iPhoto to give a better library to hold you images
• Advance white balance this gives a whole new way to correct colour
• Improved highlights and shadows, this lifts shadowed areas and recovers blown highlights

To buy this straight from the app store it would cost you £54.99.

A down side to aperture 3.5 is that it is only available for apple laptops or computers.

shutter priority mode

Shutter priority mode allows you to change the speed in which the shutter take the image you are trying to capture. 1/second is the slowest shutter speed and allows a greater amount of movement to be captured, 1/ 1000 is generally a fast shutter speed and will freeze the movement of the image you are trying to capture.

aperture mode

Aperture mode allows you to change the size of your lens opening or aperture while taking the picture, which is about how much light can be let into the camera. Generally F2.8 is the lowest that allows the most amount of light in, F22 is generally the highest F stop which allows the least amount of light in.

shabby chick

I have decided to look it to shabby chick furniture, how its made and what different types of shabby chick furniture there is. I have already contacted people about constructing a photo shoot of there furniture. The first person I found that was willing to let me take photos lived in Nottingham and couldn't get to her.
