Over the past few years, I've noticed a shift in my tendency to get wrapped up in feeling like everything I share with other photographers needs to have some kind of overarching complex, technical, in-depth talking point. This could range from the specifics of the gear used, a brand-new piece of gear or software, a fancy technique during capture/editing, or some extreme "making something out of nothing" environmental behind the scenes.   Often, I'm so fixated on figuring out these talking points that I hit a kind of paralysis before I even begin, ending up posting nothing at all because by the time I start to get a handle on it, life has moved on, and I either have no time or I'm bored with whatever half-baked idea was in progress.  There's also the exhaustion of creating a thing for patreon, figuring out how much to make free, or put behind the paywall, only to then need to create all the things (reels, stories, summaries, titles, thumbnails, clips, etc etc etc)  so that I attract new patrons as supporters come and go.

Sam Hurd - An Impossible Double Exposure. Photo Deconstruction

Sam Hurd - An Impossible Double Exposure. Photo Deconstruction

https://www.patreon.com/posts/impossible-photo-108007403

Hello lovely patrons,

By popular request - I'm excited to bring you this photo deconstruction! I highly recommend watching the video to fully understand what's going on.

Also, here's a link to the projector I'm using. I've also attached from jpeg files to this post to get you started without having to make your own shapes.

Key Takeaways:

  • A portable projector can be used to create double exposure photos
  • Preparation and practice are key to achieving the desired effect
  • Choosing the right shapes and positioning them correctly is important
  • Directing the subject and paying attention to details like shutter speed and focus are crucial
  • The projector's brightness can create a dramatic effect by overwhelming the background

As mentioned in my previously posted video... I've been working a LOT to get a completely seamless experience of sending an image (or many images) from my camera fed directly into midjourney, which then creates an Ai render to (hopefully) inspire a new idea as I'm actively shooting a session.  Well, I've done it. It took a TON of work. Probably close to 30 hours, but it's working... and it's fast. About 1-2 minutes and the ai renders simply show up on my phone... or even my apple watch. This post does not provide a tutorial to do this yourself... that will come soon enough in another post.

  • Full deconstruction and analysis of one of my favorite photos from the Canon eon R w/ canon 24 1.4 lens during a night wedding in Detroit. I go from beginning to end with editing, and sharing other contextual images leading up to the final photo. I take a deep dive into a specific photo, discussing the background and context of the wedding shoot. I explain why this particular photo stands out and how it differs from my personal favorites. I also explore the composition and lighting techniques used in the photo, including the addition of reflections. Then, I walk through my editing process in Lightroom, highlighting my preferences and adjustments. Finally, I discuss the finalizing and exporting of the edited photo as a JPEG. Overall, this conversation provides insights into my approach to photography and editing.

I thought I'd resurface some of the most important posts I've made that might be a bit buried in the back catalog. I recently came across a brand new photographer who booked their first wedding and asked about preparation for family group photos. This is one KEY post that everyone should find helpful!
