Susie Reed – Shoot for the Sky

Shoot for the Sky! I’m lucky to live in beautiful Sedona, AZ where we have spectacular red rock landscapes, wonderful clouds and amazing sunsets. I sometimes think of Sedona as a photographer’s paradise.

I have a lot of photographer friends who live here as well. Many of us have photographed the same places over and over. The challenge becomes how to get a better shot of the same location or how to create a picture that hasn’t already been seen and taken over and over. As one of my students once asked, “How do you take it to the next level?”

For outdoor landscape photography the answer is to shoot for the sky.

What’s happening in the sky in the background is what can make a photo stand out and be unusual and unique. That can be the difference between a good photograph and a great one. So capture dramatic clouds before a storm, shoot rainbows and colorful sunsets. Such backdrops will take your photo to the next level and differentiate it from others.

Susie Reed is offering an Art Experience on April 23 from 1 – 4  “Sedona Photoshoot” full information available HERE.
