To celebrate Stacy's new book Photo Freedom, I have one here to give away. Leave a comment below + tell me your biggest photo struggle. Comments will be open until Thursday at 8pm Pacific.
Too late or still on time? But would love to win this book and give it to my husband for valentine! He is the photo-addict in our family.
Regards,
Inge
My biggest problem with photographs is that I'm a wedding photographer and since my business took off I rarely get to print my personal stuff and I also take a lot less personal photos that I used to which is a little sad :(
My biggest photo struggle is that I wish I had more pictures of me...but I'm not photogenic at all so the few photos there are of me, I hate! Looking forward to the release of this book!
My biggest struggle is angle - I never really am sure about the angle to take a picture at...I always seem to struggle with that...and then I upload all my digital photos and I do not scrapbook them in a reasonable amount of time - so then that feels overwhelming!
but I think angle is my biggest struggle!!
take care

My photo problems are defintely the organising side of things. I have tons of photos all over my computers in different files and differen places. Finding something when i want it is a nightmare.
My biggest problem is how to organize all the photos i've taken, both digital and paper photos, they are everywhere!! And in no order at all. I really must take controll over this!
My biggest struggle right now is learning to use my camera to it's fullest potential. It's so easy to set it on automatic and just snap away. However, when I go back and look at them I feel like I could have done better. Little things, like the flash took away the shadow that brought dimension. Or, if I had used the manual focus to really get some depth perception. So, a goal of mine this year is to take the time to work with my camera on manual.
Oh yeah, almost forgot... I would love the book! It sounds really interesting.
Thanks for making me think...
My biggest struggle is bringing myself to delete photos. I always think I will find a cool arty way to scrapbook the not so good ones, and so I keep them all. Just this week I told myself that I need to choose a day to sit and go through all my photo files because our external hard drive is almost full! :) I really need to get into the habit of deleting bad ones as soon as I take them instead of just transferring them onto the hard drive!
My biggest photo-struggle....to capture a moment, a feeling, an emotion the way I just FEEL....until now, I don't think any of my photos REFLECT how I really felt at that moment...I have a lot to learn...
Love your 365 Project Ali!
My biggest photo struggle would be choosing the right settings (ISO, Aperature, Shutter Speed etc.) on my camera to take the perfect picture. I have a Nikon d80, but I know I'm not using it to its full potential, so I hope to improve upon that so that I can take better pictures that are scrapbooking-worthy!
That book sounds really awesome :)
I hope I am not too late.... my biggest struggle is learning to use my new camera as well! and getting enough people to pose for me as my kids don't stay still for too long!

My biggest struggle, since I am "old-fashioned" and refuse to give up my analog Canon EOS, is to decide which pictures to develop in different sizes. I get everything developed in 4x6, but would so love to scrap some of them in other sizes. Just never seem to get around to it.
My biggest problem in taking photos is capturing the moments that are so precious and unexpected - by the time I get my camera, it's gone. My biggest problem with the photos themselves is what to do with the photos I don't scrapbook...
This one's easy for me to answer. My biggest struggle with my digital photos is deciding which Photoshopped version of an image to keep for archiving and for printing. (And an offspring problem of that is managing all of the saved wip copies on my hard drive that were created in the process of getting the photo edited.) I save all originals, whether they are in need of editing or not, and they are labelled as such.
A second struggle is figuring out which archiving hardwares to use, since each has vulnerabilities.

Finding time to scan in the mountain of family photos that have been left to me over 100 years worth before they get anymore damaged I don't have the money to do it proffessinally and trying to work out a sensible system to file them so I can find them all as well as the 100's of photos I've take over the last 30 years before I went digital! I don't expect to scrap them all but it would be nice if i could send out copies to the extensive family so every one has a dvd of the family photos not just a few "special" family members then maybe the old family rifts could be mended before all the oldster die & take all those memories with them! seeya hugya *G*
my biggest struggle is finding subjects so I can practice my techniques. I took several great classes, but with no children...oh I do have one on the way...and a husband that hates his picture taken, and my sister's family who has three boys and a husband that don't like to do pictures, it's so hard to find great subjects of people. I am hoping that will change once my little girl is born. We'll see.

My biggest struggle is that i have to share the EOS with my lovely husband. Most of the time when we go out we have a little fight who gets the camera ;o))
My biggest photo struggle is organizing the images into something meaningful. We have have a two and half week old and given the amount of photos we have taken of our new son, I fear the problem will get worse!
My struggle is what to do with the photos I don't plan to scrapbook, from my pre-digital days. I want to store them in a way that they too can be enjoyed, and not shut away in boxes. I have looked through my piles many times, tried to purge, then can't, so am having a rethink. I usually then come away with other photos from the piles that I want to scrapbook!
my biggest struggle is i just cannot take few shots. when my 9 months old is clapping his hands, i go snap away and i,ve got 100 pics.. ofcourse i select one or twoto scrapbook, but i have difficulties what to do with the others... ofcourse not develop them all... but it also feels sooo unnatural to delete them. although that's what you say in your book ;D. so how to handle that...
ps i love your newest book!! i just finished a huge canvas because i was so inspired by yours!!
Too late or still on time? But would love to win this book and give it to my husband for valentine! He is the photo-addict in our family.
