- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
My church had it's annual Thanksgiving concert yesterday and I was asked (3 days ago, I might add) to be one of the two photographers.
This is the first time I have ever taken photos for other people, and I was nervous to say the least. I was very happy to hear that the other photographer was a professional - I figured if all my photos came out badly, we'd just use his .
I took every photo three times, once with flash, once with shutter priority, and once in program mode.
I also wasn't sure about how the "photography etiquette" went, until I saw the other photographer go up on the stage and take flash shots without crouching. And I was like, "Okay, I can basically do whatever I want!"
It was exhilarating and crazy at the same time. I had had the foresight to dress in black (I felt like a ninja!) and we had catwalks in the side of the room at the top. We also had a gallery, and after talking with the other photographer, we worked out a mode of operation. I did most of the top shots, and he did most of the floor shots. By the end of the two hour concert, I was drenched in sweat, but that must have been the best 2 hours of the year!
I'll post just one shot, as I don't have the photos yet. I've given them to another guy to photoshop them...
