Tips for Photographing Fireworks

Here are some tips for all you that will be out photographing fireworks this week...
1. Use Manual Setting on camera. 
2. Set Shutter Speed to 3 seconds
3. Set Aperture to f16
4. Set ISO to 200
5. Put camera on Tripod - pointed where fireworks will be.
6. If possible use a cable release to fire camera without touching.

(Use this as a starting point and adjust from there)

For even better results, using cable release set your camera to BULB mode and push fire button as firework launches, hold through duration and release once firework completes.

Happy 4th! :)


Thank you to Trevor Dayley for the tips!

Martin Luther King High School Prom - Riverside California - MLK High

Imagine this... one of the most important days of high school - PROM! Add a super sweet handsome boyfriend, a group of friends, a beautiful dress, hair and makeup... and then RAIN? We made the most of our time together to do photos and the minute the rain let up we were outside with umbrella and all. It was a lot of fun to be with them during the excitement before Prom. I am sure they had an amazing time together! {Riverside Poly High Prom Photography} {Riverside Senior Photography}, Riverside Poly High School, Martin Luther King High School, crystal edivan, pure images photography,

Zeait Family

 I met Jessica through a playgroup I was involved in almost 5 years ago. She is a sweetheart! She is always smiling and has a great attitude. Even through our most recent shoot in 98 degree weather with 3 kiddos that didn't nap, she was smiling! I  definitely wouldn't be! She is a great mom and her husband Barry (an Australian with an Australian accent!!) is an amazing father was well. :) I am so happy I've been able to do their family photos for them the last few years. It's awesome to see their family grow!
