Creating a Moody Photograph with Long Exposure

Are your reluctant to try the long exposure to create an image? In this video, professional photographer and instructor, Layne Kennedy, shows you how to be innovative when photographing at a low shutter speed.

He takes you to a rushing stream below Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis for a portrait session. He positions his model so that the natural light values separate her from the background of dark, shaded trees. He captures her in multiple one-second exposures, instructing her to hold still at each interval. The idea is to create the mood with the creamy, out-of-focus stream rushing past her.

Join pro photographer, Layne Kennedy, for some great landscape photography tips and tricks on creating different moods in photographs using long exposures.
