I’ve got something pretty cool to share with you today. The exact picture I took that changed my life!
It was many, many years ago when my daughter Julianna was 4 years old. My husband owned a mustang at the time and we were driving around. Julianna was in the back seat and I had my camera with me. My new Canon Rebel. Hubby had just bought it for me as a Christmas gift. I had been practicing like crazy and I brought it everywhere. I had just started learning about natural light and was struggling with how to use it. I wasn’t sure how to capture those beautiful catchlights I read about. I turned around to check on her in the back seat and that’s when I noticed it. Her eyes!

There it was. Right there in front of me. Here eyes looked so beautiful. They had that sparkle I kept trying to capture. Catchlights!
This is the picture that started it all. I became obsessed with close-ups and capturing that sparkle. I couldn’t do it without understanding light though and how to use it though.

One of the trickiest lighting scenarios for me to learn was backlighting. I LOVE sun-soaked, beautiful, golden, backlit images, but I struggled so much when I tried to do it myself. My images always came out so hazy. My subject ended up too dark and it never looked the way I wanted it too. It wasn’t until I discovered that time and angle play a crucial role in achieving dreamy, backlit images. I will show you exactly what I mean in the course!
