Capturing the world, one frame at a time
It is difficult to take good pictures without having a solid understanding of ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture. While most DSLRs have “Auto” modes that automatically pick the right shutter speed, aperture and even ISO for your exposure, using an Auto mode limits what you can achieve with your camera. In many cases, the camera… Continue reading Photo Tip Tuesday – ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture
Your digital camera comes equipped with a plethora of automatic and semi-automatic modes designed to make your life as a photographer easier.

As Mother's Day approaches, VNC Photography captured portraits of several families. One of those families was my friend (and bridesmaid) Alannah & her brother Thomas.
