Subject: Re: Working a campaign

Richard

As Greg said - don't expect to make any money working a campaign.
Negotiate access and rights up front - the campaign will want to give
images away as hand outs but that shouldn't stop your niece from
retaining rights for use after the campaign is over and for non news
uses for example books (I'm still selling the occasional image from my
time as Howard Dean's photographer). On the access side you want really
good access - you trade publication control for access. The deal I had
with Dean was if there was no press present or less than 5 people
present they had veto rights over the image - otherwise it was my call
on publishing it. If it was published on the campaign web site it
became my call on future publication. The less they want to pay the
more rights you should ask for.

Actually working with the campaign the biggest thing is keeping your
mouth shut, see everything, hear nothing Power in a political
campaign is measured by proximity to the candidate so all the staff are
playing office politics to get "in the room" or "on the bus" or "on the
plane". An effective campaign photographer has to exist outside the
power structure. The second you voice an opinion on anything related
to the campaign or politics you become just another staffer and subject
to the same competition for access and the staff are better at the game
that any photographer.

Be prepared for insanely long days and get real good as doing grip and
grin photo receiving lines (take two images of each person!). I had a
blast working for Dean's 2004 presidential campaign, shot 45,000 images
and if he'd won I would have had a great book. As is I about broke even
on sales of images (although it took a couple of years).

Happy 4th of July 2008!!!!!

2008-07-04T12:38:00.000-07:00

Friday is the day you get off work to grill meat and watch fireworks explode (oh, and celebrate Independence Day), and that means the camera shutters will be snapping like crazy.

But taking a good picture of your BBQ ribs or a girandole isn't quite as simple as just pointing your camera and pushing the button. Here are five sites full of tips for taking perfect pictures on the Fourth of July and throughout the summer.

Digital Photography 101 with Ritz - Use Natural Outdoor Light to Your Advantage - Best tip: People (especially kids) squint when the sun is in their eyes. To keep eyes open, keep the sun behind your subject (though I'll add that it can be difficult to keep faces out of shadow this way), or better yet, shoot in the morning or evening when the sun isn't as harsh.

Digital Photography School - How to Photograph Fireworks Displays - Best tip: Use a tripod, and set the aperture setting to somewhere in the range of f/8 to f/16 for the best results.

Your Photo Tips - How to Photograph Amazing Fireworks - Best tip: If you're near water, include the surface of the lake/pool/ocean in the shot to capture some cool reflections.

Kodak - Photographing Fireworks - Best tip: Film a sequence of shots using burst mode, so you capture a series of pictures encompassing an explosion from start to finish.

National Geographic - Action and Adventure Photography Tips - Best tip: When photographing action shots (like the annual three-legged race), planning is everything. Stake out a good position to frame your shot properly well in advance so you don't end up with a technically great and perfectly-exposed shot... of everyone's backside as they run away from you.
