Has anyone learned something new or been wanting to try something new in photography? Comment what you’ve been working on or what you’re learning!

I just wanted to get everyones thoughts on the Brenizer method? do you know about it? If not, its a method whereby you take a picture of your subject in sharp focus and then proceed to shoot several pictures around the subject without refocusing, then stitching the photos together in lightroom to create a huge bokeh panoramic shot

Hey yall, I’m taking my friends proposal pictures this weekend and I’m super nervous because I haven’t done anything like this yet! Anyone have any tips for me? It’s at 3:30pm and it’ll be shaded by a fire pit at a lake house.

AI is changing photography, I will not be pretending it is not. So easily, people can now generate polished images in seconds, so I think photographers need to get clearer about what we actually offer. Because our value was never just the final file! It is the experience, the trust, the way we guide people who feel awkward in front of the camera, the way we notice real moments before they disappear. And yes... AI can create an image, but it cannot create the real experience of being seen. I believe a real photograph carries something different because it says, “This happened.” There is also a huge difference between an image that looks beautiful and an image that holds an actual memory. I don’t think photographers need to be defensive or argue that we are “better than AI.” I think we need to communicate our value better. The human connection, the direction, the atmosphere, the memory, and the proof that a real moment happened. Because to me, photography is about helping people feel seen, remembered, and connected to a moment they do not want to lose. Curious how other photographers are talking about this with clients?

Has anyone ever had their photos printed in a layflat book just to have on your coffee table?? If so, what service did ya use?! Having some format glitches with mpix and im getting nervous the final print will be wrong!
