How To Become A Skilled Architectural Photographer

By Judy Sullivan


When people are living in areas with beautiful scenery, they will normally want to become a good architectural photographer. It may or may not actually come true but it should help a person to have the skills to get good pictures. They should be able to capture the beauty of a building with the use of their camera.

Buildings and towers make good subjects for most photographers. They find it an art to indulge themselves in this kind of photography. They can easily capture the beauty of these buildings or towers, regardless of whether they are amateurs or not, if they know the basic rules to this. Here are some of the things they need to know.

First of all, one has to be aware of the focal length. This is what the person will have to adjust in the hopes of capturing a subject with the widest angle of view. If this is the case, one will have to shoot using wide angle lenses. On the other hand, there are times when it will just depend on how close or far a person is from the subject.

Stabilizing their own camera is a priority. They should always make sure that they steadily hold their camera when they are snapping a great shot. If they are not steady, the picture will end up being blurred or not in the right position. If not confident about the ability to stay steady, then make use of a good tripod when taking the shot.

The ISO will have to be adjusted as well. Since the person already picked a tripod and used it, then the next thing to do is to decide on the ISO level to use in the shots. This is the part where one has to decide on the amount of light to get into the camera. Better lower the ISO so that one can minimize noise.

The aperture is another matter to take into account. If possible, the person should just close the aperture of their camera. This is possible if one's camera is mounted on a proper tripod and when they have the time to leave their camera's shutter open. Their lens error will be greatly minimized with smaller apertures.

The converging lines are important elements of the picture. If the person is pursuing any other kind of photography, they will aim to keep the vertical lines as vertical as possible. In this kind of photography, they should know that this is not desirable or possible at all times. They have to follow the convention for converging lines with this.

They have to be aware of the position of their camera too. There are a lot of times when people can simply make use of the wide angle lens so that they can achieve a dramatic effect. However, it will be another matter if they are in this kind of photography. They should try to use longer focal lengths to bring elements closer together.

Do not be afraid to stand up for the right to take pictures. There are a lot of places nowadays that accost people when they are taking pictures. The person should learn how to deal with such situations to continue on the path of a good architectural photographer.
