VICKI SANTELLO

"Creating Visual Impact through Wildlife Photography"

July 15 - 6:00pm Eastern

Vicki will share valuable secrets she's learned throughout her career to help her stand out in a crowded field. Some of these include:

How to stop the 3-second IG scroll so that your work is SEEN!

How to be creative IN CAMERA with post-production techniques as a secondary process to polish an already good quality image.

How to see mindfully versus reactively in the field
How to visualize in the field- being ready for your subject, a good background and the light
The elements of color: complementary colors, analogous colors, triadic colors, color pop
How to see in black and white for in-camera or conversion post processing
Looking for contrasts, repeated patterns, negative space, backlighting
Creating an emphasis in camera- winter shoot wide or zoom in
When to consider intentional camera movement: slow shutter speed blurs, panning, long exposure
