Camera Storage

The Richard J Nieves Photography Podcast Episode 14: Camera Storage

Richard Nieves January 14, 2021

Probably one of the most important, but neglected pieces of gear we don’t give too much thought about, but really should, is storage. The memory cards that go into your camera. The thing that carries all your work. It’s necessary that you get the right card for your situation.

The Most Important Goal For Working Photographers

The Richard J Nieves Photography Podcast Episode 13: The Most Important Goal For Working Photographers

Richard Nieves January 13, 2021

If you’re photographing to support you and your family, I truly believe you should have one main goal when proving photos for clients. This one goal could fuel your work in ways you’ve never dreamt. This one goal could be the thing that sets you apart from the rest. The goal, for all of us working photographers, is to be in service of our clients.

Shooting Modes

The Richard J Nieves Photography Podcast Episode 12: Shooting Modes

Richard Nieves January 12, 2021

On your DSLR or Mirrorless camera, you'll most likely have a dial on the top of your camera body with letters including Auto, A, S, P, and M among others depending on your camera. Those are your shooting modes. That's what we'll be discussing today.

The Richard J Nieves Photography Podcast Episode 11: 2021

Richard Nieves January 11, 2021

Even though I lost my 9 to 5, my time grew exponentially and I was able to have the energy to focus on my passion.

Maybe you’re in the same boat as me. You lost your main source of income and now you feel the desperation. I want you to take that feeling and turn it into motivation. Turn the worry into a spark that’ll ignite your business into the source of energy people desperately crave.

Make plans. Get focused. Put in the work. Show us what you’re made of. It’s all we can do in the beginning of 2021.

RAW vs. JPG

The Richard J Nieves Photography Podcast Episode 10: RAW vs. JPG

Richard Nieves January 8, 2021

You’ve heard me mention in passing the ways RAW Files and JPG are different. We’re going to dedicate this episode to it so by the end you’ll be more informed on when to shoot in either file format.

RAW files are minimally processed files that, after editing and exporting them from an image editor such as Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture One, or Luminar for example, can be turned into a proper image file, such as a JPG.

A JPG file is a compressed, processed image created after you press your shutter button. You’re allowing your camera to determine the best settings to get proper exposure.

Episode 8

What is Color balance?

The Richard J Nieves Photography Podcast Episode 8: What is Color Balance?

Richard Nieves December 30, 2020

Welcome to the third episode of the Richard J Nieves photography podcast. I'm Richard J Nieves portrait and wedding photographer, and owner of Richard J Nieves Photography located in the Bronx in New York City. It's great to have you here, ready to listen, learn and use the information we're putting out here for you today.

We'll be diving into the second section of the exposure triangle called shutter speed. Your DSLR or mirrorless camera has a small shutter that rises and lowers in front of your camera sensor at a specific rate managed by you or the camera's preference, depending on your current mode of shooting, the faster your shutter speed closes, the less light reaches your sensor, oppositely, the slower you show to speed, the more light spilling on your sensor.

Buttons or a zipper may seem like a simple decision, but this choice can shape not only the look of your gown but also how stress-free (or tricky) it feels to put on. Here’s what to consider when deciding between the two—and how to make the process smoother if you choose buttons.
