Iingcebiso ezi-5 zaBafoti zokuNgena kwiifoto kunye neentsapho zabo

Kwisithuba sexesha phakathi komzuzu wokuqala ndathatha ikhamera kwaye namhlanje, ndithathe amakhulu amawaka emifanekiso. Xa ndandisemncinci, ndandifota abazala bam xa sikunye neentsapho. Njengoko ndandikhula, ndathatha iifoto zabahlobo bam esikolweni, umfana endithandana naye (ngoku ongumyeni) edlala kwiqela lomculo werock, kunye nenja yam endiyithandayo, uBrady. Nje ukuba kufike amakhwenkwe am amabini, inani leefoto eziqokelelweyo zacima iitshathi, kwaye xa ndiqala ishishini lam lokufota, ndongeze amawaka eefoto zabaxumi bam.

Ngaba uyazi ukuba yintoni eyayilahlekile kwingqokelela yam? Mna.

Ngaphezulu kweminyaka emibini edlulileyo, umhlobo wam wabulawa xa wayephume ebaleka kusasa. Njengokuba ndandihleli emngcwabeni wakhe kwaye ndibukele isilayidi sobomi bakhe, ndachukunyiswa kukuqonda ukuba iifoto awazishiya ngasemva ngesiquphe zizinto ezixabisekileyo abantwana bakhe, usapho kunye nabahlobo abaya kubaxabisa ngonaphakade.

Ke ngo-Okthobha u-2013, UJodi Friedman wabhala iposti yakhe malunga nokufotwa. Kude kube namhla, eso sithuba simi njengesithandwa sam kule bhlog, kwaye sasinefuthe elinamandla kuzo zombini indlela endandizibona ngayo kunye nendlela endiziva ngayo ngokuba kwiifoto.

Ndandihleli ndicinga ngokusweleka komhlobo wam kunye neefoto azishiyele abantwana bakhe, kwaye ndiye ndabona ukuba kufuneka ndiyeke ukuziva ndingazithembi endigcina ngasemva kwekhamera nangaphandle kweefoto, ngenxa yabantu endibathandayo — ngakumbi abantwana. Nangona kunjalo, iinzame zam zokungena kwiifoto ndisebenzisa ixesha kwikhamera yam zazidinisa ngokupheleleyo.

Ngexesha lotyelelo lwethu oluya e-Jekyll Island, e-Georgia, kwihlobo ephelileyo, ndaye ndagqiba kwelokuba ndiza kuthatha iifoto zosapho lwethu elunxwemeni ndisebenzisa loo ndlela.

Endaweni yeefoto ezintle endizibonileyo, le yeyona nto ndiyenzayo:

Kwaye nangona esi sithombe simele inkumbulo yelixesha elinye xa bendinxibe ngokupheleleyo kwaye ndibile ndinxibe ilokhwe yam ngelixa ndibaleka ndibuyela phakathi kwekhamera yam kunye nabafana abathathu abaphoxekile, ibingeyiyo ifoto entle endifuna ukuyixhoma eludongeni .

Ukukhawulezisa ukuya kulo nyaka…

Kulo nyaka, xa besicwangcisela iholide yethu ukuya kwisiQithi iJekyll, ndacwangcisa iseshoni yokufota nomfoti wasekhaya ngelixa silapho. Ngethuba lokuqala ukusungulwa kweshishini lam lokufota, ndandingumthengi wokufota. Ukongeza kwiifoto zabantwana bam abadlala elunxwemeni endizithathileyo, kulo nyaka ndifumene iifoto ezintle zosapho lwam lonke.

Ngenxa yamava am amnandi phambi kwekhamera ngotshintsho, kukho izifundo ezimbalwa endizifundileyo endinokuthanda ukwabelana ngazo. Nazi ezinye iingcebiso zokukunceda ungene kwiifoto kwaye uthandane nazo.

1. Qesha umfoti

Amava am okuzama ukuthatha usapho lwam iifoto zaselwandle kwihlobo ephelileyo ayedinisa kwaye ephazamisa. Ndonwabile ukuba ndinemifanekiso emikhulu yomyeni wam kunye nabantwana bam ukuba ndiyidlulisele kubafana bam ngenye imini, kodwa ndifuna ukuba bakhumbule indlela umoya wolwandle owenza ubushushu ngayo uzenza iinwele zam kunye nendlela impumlo yam etsala ngayo kancinci xa Ndiyahleka. Eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu, ndifuna ukuba babe nobungqina obufotayo bothando lwam kubo ukubakhumbuza ixesha elide emva kokuba ndimkile. Ndifuna abazukulwana bam balubone uthando endinalo kubazali babo notatomkhulu wabo.

Ukusoloko ungasemva kwekhamera kuyigcina ingenzeki. Nangona zikhona iitoni zabafoti abanobuchule kubugcisa bexesha lokuzimela okanye ukukhutshwa kwe-shutter ekude, andingomnye wabo bafoti. Ukuba awunguye, zigcinele uxinzelelo kunye nokudinwa kwaye uqeshe umfoti ukuba akubambele ezo zinto.

2. Yenza uphando lwakho

Ukuqala kwam ukuzama ukufumana umfoti kwindawo yase Jekyll Island, ndandisazi ukuba ndifuna umfoti wokuphila; Nangona kunjalo, akukho nqanaba lokukhangela lenze "ekunene". Ndifumene itoni yabafoti bomtshato, abafoti bezithombe ezisesikweni, kunye nabanye umfoti, kodwa akukho nanye yeefoto zabo kanye ebendizifuna ngokwam. Ke, andiqeshanga mntu. Ngapha koko, ndaye ndagqiba kwelokuba ndingazithathi iifoto eholideyini kwaye ndaqala ndaphanda abafoti basekuhlaleni. Emva koko, ngenye imini, ndaye ndafuna abantu abafota iifoto kwindawo yaseJekyll Island kwakhona. Ngeli xesha, esona siphumo sokuqala sokukhangela kwam yayingumfoti ogama linguJennifer Tacbas. Ndijonge iwebhusayithi yakhe kwaye ndathandana.

Le piggy-backs "Qasha umfoti." Musa ukuqesha nawuphi na umfoti. Yenza uphando lwakho kwaye uqeshe umfaki-zithombe omsebenzi wakhe unxibelelana kakhulu nawo. Ukuba uthatha isigqibo sokuqesha ingcali ukuba ikwenzele iifoto, musa ukuqesha mntu ude ufumane umfoti ofanelana nesimbo osifunayo kwiifoto zakho. Bendingafuni imifanekiso esesikweni. Ndifuna umntu ofota ngendlela yokuphila. Endaweni yokuqesha umntu kwizinto onokukhetha ukuzenza, ndiye ndalinda de ndifumane oyena mntu ufumanekayo, ngokobuqu.

3. Nxibelelana

Ngexesha lam lokuqala lokuthumela i-imeyile kuJennifer, ndamazisa ukuba unyana wam omncinci, uFinley, une-autistic. Ndifuna ukuba ayazi ukuba ukufumana ingqwalaselo yakhe kunye nalo naluphi na uhlobo lokudibana kwamehlo kuyinto engenakwenzeka, ngakumbi kwindawo entsha enje ngokuba bendisazi ukuba yeyiphi na indawo ngeholide. Kuzo zonke iincoko zethu ezilandelayo, ndiqinise umbono wokuba "iifoto" ezigqibeleleyo nomntu wonke oncumileyo kwikhamera zibalulekile kum. Ndifuna iifoto zokwenyani ezibonisa ukuhlangana kwethu njengentsapho, endisele ndiyazi ukuba uJennifer uza kuyithatha emva kokujonga umsebenzi wakhe. Ndifuna nenqanaba lakhe loxinzelelo lincitshiswe. Bendifuna ayonwabele neseshoni yethu, kwaye bendingafuni ukuba oyike ukuba ndingadana xa ifoto “egqibeleleyo” ingenzekanga. Iifoto eziphumeleleyo bezisalungile, ngandlela zonke—inkcazo eyahlukileyo yelizwi.

Qiniseka ukuba wenza umfoti wakho azi ngayo nayiphi na imiba enokubaluleka kuwe. Ngaba unomntwana oxhalabileyo phakathi kwabantu ongabaziyo? Ungathini ngokungazithembi, njengokuzonda impumlo okanye uncumo? Okanye unemicimbi efana neyam? Vumela umfoti wakho azi ngaphambili. Ngokwenza njalo, unokuqinisekisa ukuba umfoti wakho unolwazi olufunekayo ukuze iseshoni yakho ibengcono.

4. Yonwaba!

Endaweni yokuphelisa iseshoni yethu ndidiniwe kwaye ndibile kukubuyela umva kwikhamera yam, ndiyigqibile iseshoni yam ndidiniwe kwaye ndibile ngenxa yokonwaba kunye nosapho lwam. Sasidlala esantini, sijikeleze ngokujikeleza, kwaye sasinomlo omnandi. Sihlolisise iDriftwood Beach kunye nebala leJekyll Island Club Hotel, sanga iimpumlo, kunye nokuleqa oononkala. Ngamafutshane, saqhuma.

Ukuba ukhetha ukuqesha umfoti, isizathu esikhulu sokwenza oko kukuzisindisa kwiimvakalelo zoxinzelelo. Ithetha ntoni le nto? Sukuba noxinzelelo. Yonwaba. Ayisiyi kwenza nje kuphela iifoto ezibonisa unxibelelwano lokwenyani, kodwa inokunceda nawaphi na amalungu osapho lwakho anokungonwabi malunga nokuthathwa kweefoto zosapho njengawe.

5. Zithande Iifoto Zakho

Abo bandithandayo bayazi ukuba ndinokugxeka ngendlela emangalisayo inkangeleko yam, sesinye sezizathu endihlala ndonwabile ukuba semva kwelensi endaweni yaphambi kwayo. Nangona kunjalo, Isithuba sikaJodi Friedman malunga namava akhe okuba athathwe iifoto kuye kwaba yinto evulekileyo kum, ke ngaphambi kokujonga iifoto kwiseshoni yethu, ndenze isigqibo sengqondo sokuthanda indlela endijonge ngayo kubo. Kwaye ndenzile. Kungenxa yokuba ekugqibeleni, abantwana bam abayikhathalelanga into yokubamba uthando lwam. Abasoze bayiqaphele into yokuba ndinesilevu esiphindiweyo okanye ujongeke ebusweni kum efotweni. Nam andifanele. Andinazo iifoto ezithathiweyo kubahlobo kwimidiya yoluntu (okanye abafundi bale posi) abanokugxeka inkangeleko yam. Ekugqibeleni, ndandifote iifoto zoonyana bam, uGavin noFinley. Ke ekugqibeleni, izimvo zikaGavin kunye noFinley zezona kuphela zibalulekileyo kum.

Nokuba uyayithanda okanye uyayicaphukela inkangeleko yakho, yenza isigqibo sokuthanda iifoto ezikugcina unguye. Funda Isithuba sikaJodi, ukuba ufuna inkuthazo efanayo endivumele ukuba ndenze njalo.

Amava am phambi kwekhamera njengomthengi wokufota andinike iinkumbulo ezixabisekileyo, iifoto ezintle ezixhonywe eludongeni lwam, kunye nembono entsha njengomfoti. Umfoti wethu wasiphatha ngobubele, umonde, kunye nobuchwephesha kwaye ndinethemba lokuba ndiza kwenza abathengi bam bazive ngendlela asenze saziva ngayo, ngexesha leseshoni kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha sijonga umsebenzi wakhe omhle.

Phuma emva kwekhamera ngotshintsho. Ukuba ukwenza oko kuthetha ukuqesha omnye umntu, qesha umntu owuthandayo umsebenzi wakhe. Thetha ngokulindelekileyo, wonwabe ngexesha leseshoni yakho, kwaye uzithande kunye neefoto okuzo.

Abantu obathandayo baya kuvuya.

Iifoto nguJennifer Tacbas zibandakanywe nemvume yomfoti.
