I'm seeing lots of /rpt/, gear, and weirdly specific threads, but very few threads that talk about technique, lighting, tricks, effects, etc.
The goal of this thread is to remedy that, and collect tips/ tricks/ infographs that may not be so obvious to beginners.
Here's the format:
>Your photography experience
About 1 year with DSLR, about 3 with PAS. Recently did my first paid gig.
>Career
Software Dev/ instructor
>Preferred camera ecosystem
Canon (EF-S)
>Your tip (preferably with a pic related)
If your shooting with the intention of editing your photos in software like Lightroom or Luminar, it's generally better to slightly overexpose your shots rather than risk underexposure. You can always "take away" light in post, but it's exceedingly difficult to add it, without introducing noise.
>Where you originally got this tip
A career photographer I met at a bar
