Photography Presentation. Learn the basics of Night Photography from Corporate, Portrait & Fine Art Photographer Carey Stinson. In this presentation you will learn all about shooting photography at night. The discussion will focus on equipment, camera setting, Night photography tips and techniques to capture the night.
Photography is ideas. It’s life interpreted. It’s the intersection of a client vision and photographer expertise, life experience and creative curiosity. (Carey Stinson)
Carey’s photography career began as a seed planted during his 22 years in the entertainment industry as a Big Purple Dinosaur in front of a camera. When he moved behind the lens, his passion grew quickly, beginning with shooting concert photography for Texas and national musicians and bands: artists having fun creating on both ends of the lens. It then expanded to encompass commercial and portrait photography through his dedication to listening to clients, artistic technique informed and refined by a multi-faceted life experience, and the art of the possible.
