  1. I just started shooting in manual about a month ago on my canon 80d and that was scary and i had some over exposed and under exposed photos. But now I'm starting to get it as I continue to shoot manual. What lens do you use for videos? Also do use any lens to get that bokeh effect?

  2. Hello from Houston! I so needed this video, thank you for sharing. I have a fancy DSLR camera and I use it on auto mode only. I have a question. When you're shooting, do you like to err on the lighter or darker side? Would it be easier to fix an image that's too dark or too light in post? I've heard that taking darker photos is preferable because they will turn out better once you Photoshop them (which I only know basics of) Do you agree?

  3. I love photography. I had to take a break when I had my kids but I would like to get back to it slowly. Manual mode is scary! So thank you for sharing this video. Looking forward to more of your videos!

  4. I remember how daunting it was venturing out of auto mode and trying to figure out what the heck all those settings meant. Now it's way more intuitive, although I'm far from being a pro!
