Performance Portraits

Photographing Performing Artists

One subject matter I haven't brought to this blog is people photos.  I love shooting people.  Most of my people shots are candid or journalistic.  I like to catch my subjects unposed.

I thought i would start off with some live performance shots.  I like to use the ambient light and stage lights as my light source.  I very rarely use flash.  I hand hold, bump my ISO up very high, usually around 800 to1600, shoot with my aperture wide open around f /2.8 to f/4 and work my subjects from all angles, sometimes moving as much as my subjects to get the right shot.
