Film Friday on Kauai

Happy Film Friday!

One of the things I learned while shooting film is you can’t fix an underexposed photo like you can with a DSLR camera.  Really….it looks so bad!  The lighting changes so much and sometimes I’ll just expect the lighting is the same at a different angle…but nope.  So my best friend is the light meter…always.  I usually meter 45 degrees bulb in.  I like to overexpose a little….except for Kodak Ektar, I just meter straight up and down.

The first photo I took while I was already taking photos around at the basketball court.  I angled the camera down to focus on her, and I thought it would be the same light, maybe even brighter….but I thought wrong.

Well it’s not too bad, she makes it look good.  =)

Have a great weekend friends!
