Autumn photography fun at after school club!

This week at after school club the kids were having lots of Autumn photography fun! Autumn is a wonderful season for photography, the colours are vivid and the light is soft. To inspire our students photographs we showed them images taken by famous photographers. This week these images are by Hiroji Kubota, Richard Kalvar & Sergio Larrain.

The Nikon Coolpix W100 cameras that we use at after school club have some great settings for the kids to use to make their photographs even better. This week they were using the ‘More Vivid’ setting, which makes the colours really pop, the black and white setting to remove all colour, the ‘Take a series of pictures’ setting which takes a burst of photographs (great for throwing leaves!) and the ‘Close up’ setting to really capture the amazing details of the leaves.

Autumn photography top tips:

  1. Think about your camera angle, don’t just photograph from eye level, get low and photograph in the leaves or find a high view point for a big landscape.
  2. It is great to photograph fallen leaves how you find them naturally, but also think about setting up your own still life image by arranging the leaves in a specific way.
  3. Play around with your cameras colour settings to see how you can improve or remove colour from your photographs.

Here are our after school photography club kids best autumn images:
