Vivian Aubrey gave a delightful and engaging presentation at our February meeting, teaching us how to take better photographs of our knitting.

An experienced product and portrait photographer, she has a wealth of knowledge about her subject and shared it with us.

Vivian talked us through lighting (outdoors and no flash is desirable), backgrounds (keep them calm and watch out for unexpected things you may not have noticed when you took the photo), composition, getting a natural look of people, using props (mostly none), and more.

 
Each concept was illustrated with some of her gorgeous photographs.  These photos are from her website and there are lots more there to give you ideas and inspiration.
