A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Hello r/photography,

I been having a hard go a life for the past year. I decided to do more things on a whim for myself, and one of these things has been getting into photography.

I got a Nikon zf + 40mm f/2.0, and wanting to take picture of my life, travel but mostly my 2mo old kid.

Do you have tips for a photo session? What simple props I could use? Or how to make the photos more interesting? What are you go to props or poses? Do I need to get some form of lights?

Thanks!

I photograph my kids myself, and i love candid photos the most. I also take photos of them each year in the same location during thr same time of year, and after 4 years we’ve already got a nice collection. The leaves and the bench and the light is the same but the kids change.

I also aim to take photos with our home Xmas tree each year.

The rest are all candid shoots, unplanned.
