Today was a time-out for me. Two weeks ago, my niece Tyana (12 years old) asked me to do a photoshoot. As I was very busy with my thesis, I told her that we were gonna do it another time. So that time was today. I really needed a break from everything for a day. My sister in law told me she was going to the strawberry terrace with her children. I asked her: a strawberry terrace? Sounds pretty interesting. What do you mean?! Well, it was actually a place at a strawberry field, with a playground where children could play and parents could relax, enjoy strawberries and even have a strawberry milkshake! (GOSH ,IT WAS DELICIOUS!)
Anyway, I brought the camera with me so we could take pictures of each other. Here are some shots that Tyana took of me. Shots are taken with a Sony SLT-A65V. Lens: tamron af 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 (if) macro a14. I chose to take pictures at the cornfields, because I really LOVE corn and also the beauty of the field XD. Lol.
Okay, so we still need to figure out how to take beautiful shots with this camera. The pictures that you see are just some pictures, nothing professional ;), however, we would really like to plan another shoot. Just for fun as we both like photography ;). Later, I will post the pictures that I took with my niece as a model :P.
Even though we are just experimenting with the camera, I would really like to have some tips to make better shots of whatever! So, Steem Photographers, if you have any tips, let me know! :-)
This was it for now. Hope you enjoyed it!
Much love, Kimberley

I normally don't read the text and just look through photos, but i noticed you asking for advice to improve the photos; the easiest way is to improve the quality of light. Notice the background is super bright, but the subject (you) is a bit on the dull side. Speedlight or even a simple reflector would give your face more depth. It brings the photos more to life.
Until you're able to send some corn field my way, i'll just keep visiting your photos and pout over what I cannot have. :p

Hahaha keep visiting my photos, maybe you will see more things that you don't have in NYC! I'll keep visiting yours too :P Envy you that you're in NYC! I hope one day I can visit NYC!!
And thank you for the advise! I don't have a reflector yet. Maybe should buy one and continue with experimenting! Have a great day!!

You can even use a cardboard and tape a bunch of white printer paper to make it white. It works just as well, but just hard to carry around.
I'm so tired of NYC. I need to be with nature haha

Thanks for the tip :P! I can imagine you're tired of NYC! Luckily, here where I live in the Netherlands, it is not as crowded as NYC. I love nature and need to be surrounded with nature too! That's why I often visit the woods nearby my home. You should do to! Go somewhere where you can be with nature haha (then take some pics too + share it with us!)

Unfortunately, my backyard is just another brick wall a few feet away from me. I have to travel so far just to be with nature. Even then, it's usually packed with people. :(
Hopefully, not this time. I'm getting ready to catch a flight to Arizona! :D
I'll share some photos when I get back (or maybe I'll upload some there.)
