Hi, I'm Tony Sweet. I've been photographing flowers for at least 15 years. They're very colorful. They're very graphic. And they're just wonderful photograph.
The techniques that'll be covered begin from the basic compositions to finding a nice subject, making it look the way you see it to more interpretive camera movements, soft focus, that type of thing. Cover the entire gamut of things that I like, the more creative types of flower photography. We're at Longwood Gardens, which is one of the premier gardens on the East Coast. It's just, it's the wonderful place to photograph. And there's several gardens, including the interior that are just limitless with possibilities.
So I hope that these techniques will inspire you to get out there and make your own great flower pictures.
