Top Ten from IP Retreat 2017:
- Not a “relaxing” vacation, exhausting, yet amazing
- So much fun to be around a lot of photographers-share interest of photography-nerd out together
- Fail upwards-embrace the experience of “failing”=learning
- Room to learn more about the exposure triangle for everyone from beginners to level 3-4 or higher
- Trying other genres of photography will stretch your skills
- Helping other photographers is so fulfilling and fun
- My gear is heavy I found out as I dragged it around for 4 days and nights through downtown Phoenix, deserts full of cactus, hiking up mountains,dragging it through hotel lobbies/rooms/crowded elevators, convention rooms, restaurants, and transporting it in the car
- Sharing and asking for feedback on your work with others can be uncomfortable, but will help you improve your photography
- Add depth to your photo
- Pay attention to your contrast in your photos-look for ways to add depth to your photo on the screen
- Notice the saturation on the photo. Too much-no good, too little makes it look flat
- Improve photography is a group of people who have formed a community to assist each other in improving as photographers. You can’t find that everywhere.
- Learned so much at this conference to improve the conference to be even better next year. Looking forward to seeing you in Charleston in 2018.
