By Marco Maseko


With digital photography, even absolute beginners can now take digital photographs that could almost be mistaken for those taken by a professional. Images can be adjusted and recreated to give effects only available with incredibly high tech equipment a few short years ago. Very few areas of our life haven't felt the effects that digital photography has had during recent years.

One area where it has made a big improvement is in the area of digital fashion photography. Digital fashion photography has been able to move forward in a way that it wasn't able to using traditional film.

No longer any need for film, the images captured can make almost anything seem possible. The world of fashion is fast moving and short lived so digital fashion photography is an excellent medium to both capture and portray these images. Like the fashion models and designers themselves, digital fashion photographers are at the top of their profession.

If you believe digital fashion photography is going to be your vocation then there are some important steps needed to become successful. Most important is to keep focused, ensuring your camera is always with you wherever you go as you never know when an opportune moment may present itself.

Good digital fashion photographers know what it is they want to achieve and find a way by experimentation, on how to achieve the desired result. Like any artist you must place the model or models in the way that will create the image that you're looking to achieve. A digital photographer should also be aware that the results of his photos will show others the many steps and points to remember when you are taking a shot.

Knowing what you want and having the knowledge of how to obtain it are two different things and you cannot be a serious digital fashion photographer without learning this. Studio shots and sometimes outdoor shots require the use of a tripod, background Curtains and other backdrop materials can produce wonderful color emphasis and for bright light, a polarizing filter can be used.

Is the important aspect of digital fashion photography which can be easily achieved by have plain backgrounds of white or grey. It is unlikely that until you see the final result, you will not understand what the digital fashion photographer was trying to create. A final tip would be that whilst many people do not really study the background as their attention is rightly focused on the image, the two can easily be connected even if it is not at first apparent.
