Party Pictures
Whether you use a digital camera or a
traditional camera, there are some basic steps you can take to
make sure that the party pictures turn out. The first thing you
need is a functioning camera. If your camera runs on batteries,
make sure the batteries are fully charged or that you have
extra ones on hand. Taking party pictures works best when you
can capture the moment and if your batteries are dead, the
moment will pass.
You also need to have enough storage space for your photos.
This means an extra memory card if you are going digital or
extra film for the traditional camera. For people who do not
use their cameras often, sometimes problems with the camera do
not become apparent until they are at the party and ready to
take pictures. This is not the time to find out that the lens
is dirty or that the buttons stick. Check the camera out the
day before the party so that you have time to clean it up and
make sure everything is running perfectly. Most digital cameras
have a built in flash. Make sure that you know how to use it.
If you are using a traditional camera, bring your flash
unit.
The most important hint for party picture taking is to
safeguard your equipment. You will be partying too and it is
too easy to set the camera down while getting a drink or
something to eat. It is also too easy for someone to knock the
camera off the table (or wherever you set it) or for someone to
spill something on it. Either have a little carry case you can
hang around your neck or a bag you store it in a safe
place.
