3 Photography mistakes I've made so you don't have to

3 mistakes I made so you don't have to in sports photography, so you don't have to. Number one, fast shutter speed. I know when you're starting out, you feel like you've actually got it fast enough and the action is too blurry. So ramp it up. Go over 1000, 1250, 1600, 2000, especially if you're shooting in daylight. Get it up there, freeze the action. And then you take a variable out of it that can impact some blurry photos, right? Obviously, if you're in a low light situation, that makes it harder and you have to balance for it. Number two, over editing. I know it's very tempting to try to edit your photos lots. But practice, practice, practice getting them exposed correctly, so exposed for the skin tones. And then just kind of add a little bit of contrast and saturation in a crop. If you start to get good at that, then the rest can come and then you can start to play with editing. So the editing is not going to make your photo, but it will make it better. The foundation is there. Number three, preparation. Watch where you're going into prior, if you can. So you know where to stand and where to be. Preparation is very key because if you know what's going to happen in that sport, then you know where to be and you're giving yourself the best opportunity to get a shot. If you don't prepare and say if you go into a new sport and you know nothing about it, you haven't watched it on TV or done any rekkie or looked at any images, then you're setting yourself up for failure. So preparation is very important. Anyway, hope they help. Those are my three. Let's go.
