5 Pro Tips for Stunning Garden Photography!

[@tdalton854]

Good tips. But what a fantastically pleasant 10 min watching garden photos float by on the screen. I'll have to save to play again . Thanks - tim

[@robertschlomann776]

Your pictures are beautiful, but I nearly gave your video a thumbs down. The reason is that it doesn't help to suggest that I make photographs from a higher viewpoint. What would help -- a lot -- are suggestions for HOW to get the higher viewpoint. Do I rent a "cherry-picker" and drive that into the local arboretum? Use a drone? Carry a ladder and maybe get a tripod that extends six or eight meters into the air? How did you get those shots that were taken eight or ten feet or more off the ground? In the end, I did give this a thumbs-up rating because the other tips were useful, and as I said, your photography is wonderful. Thanks for making and posting this!

Into The Garden I Go To Lose My Mind Find My Soul

[@georgemason2472]

Some gorgeous shots there Adam. You certainly were blessed with photographing some beautiful gardens. Photographing iris is what got me into DSLR photography. Salem, Oregon was well regarded as "iris heaven" with all the hybridizers down there.

[@ronboe6325]

I'm a sucker for nice flower shots and it's something I've done over the years. However; stepping back and placing that flower in context with the greater garden - meh, much less skilled there. Something I should work on. Of most of your shots today; the B&W gardener shot was the most striking. Dang! Inspired idea to include her. :bow:

[@JohnDrummondPhoto]

For me, I'd make tip no. 5 to no. 1. There's nothing like soft, overcast light for flower photography. I would also mention the use of backlighting, especially for closeups.

[@thomasphillips5850]

As always Adam , excellent. This is one area that I really.like. Gardens are amazing. Just look at Monets work. You have some truly outstanding images here. Thank you Adam wonderful video.

[@ronanderson5736]

Fantastic photos! Beautiful gardens to shoot! What were your favorite lenses for shooting gardens?

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Probably around the 50mm range.

[@ronanderson5736]

@@QuietLightPhoto thanks so much for the information! Have a great weekend!

[@ChrisHunt4497]

Great images. Thank you so much Adam. I find it really difficult to photograph my garden. I would love to see more like this. Lovely. ❤❤❤❤

[@susanfirth2279]

Great tips Adam. Such beautiful images. I love photographing flowers but find it challenging some days. Thanks for sharing. I remember on my trips to Victoria Island seeing all the beautiful hydrangeas growing in most gardens. Stunning displays.

[@jontheshrub]

Great shots Adam. I always enjoy your ventures back into the Botanical side especially the more intimate close up work. It maybe interesting to see some intimate fungal work in the autumn. I'm sure some of those fantastic Canadian forests have some great offerings. Best wishes to you.

[@jean-jacquesmarcantoni4604]

Thank you very much for all these tips and for these beautiful pictures. I take my camera and I will apply them in my garden.

[@TAdams-hx9lk]

Produced a string of duds yesterday. You inspire to loop back, look at what might have been done and try again. Education and inspiration! Many thanks!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Good timing as a friend just asked me to take some photos of her garden!

[@cmeluzzi]

Thank you, Adam. That's a magnificent body of work. I think that your tips (I'd call them principles) may also be applied to other genres as a way of storytelling. Very inspirational work. Cheers!

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Absolutely!

[@nancymatheson8602]

Ah ha! I finally know why I thought I remembered your name. I must have read your credits in the gardening magazines I've read over the decades. Terrific tips. Thanks.

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Wonderful! Gardens West, East, Central?

[@tTLM823]

Great tips, Adam- and love the video vignettes!

[@suzannemullaney3205]

Overcast light, good to know!

[@alanjabs6935]

Adam, so do you also prefer to image stack to get front to back sharpness in wider images, shoot at say f11 or have the background be a little bit blurred for that depth of the image? I know all can be an option just wondering what your preference is based on all the years you spent shooting gardens. Cheers Alan..

[@QuietLightPhoto]

I dont mind if the backgrounds are out a bit. Everything doesnt have to be tack sharp

[@roobarb7989]

Great tips Adam and most of them I try and incorporate everyday. Especially with 55 acres to try and cover ;)

[@QuietLightPhoto]

Perfect

[@butchferris7623]
