How Can I Take Better Pictures?

Probably my most-asked question is, "How can I take better pictures?" That is something I am still learning as well, but one thing that has helped me take better photos is watching some of the great videos that Nick Kelsh has put together. Here is his website and a great video he put together for CreativeMemories. To watch his video on taking better photos Click Here. It is worth your time.

Just so you know how credible Nick and his work are: Nick is the author/photographer of nine books including Naked Babies with Anna Quindlen, How to Photograph Your Baby, How to Photograph Your Life, and The Sense of Wonder by Rachel Carson. He has appeared on Oprah! and The Today Show multiple times. His photographs have appeared on several of the covers of the prestigious Day in the Life series and in dozens of major magazines.
