While we keep working on the SOAR! entries, I thought I’d pull a fun post from our blog archives. It’s all about photo tips for shooting in the snow!
Remember this one? It’s from January 08!
If you are snowed in (and I’m so jealous that you are!), click the link below to try a fun photo exercise!

we are no longer snowed in.. We got 20 inches of snow, possibly more, last week. Its been so long since we had a white Christmas. it was beautiful!! the day after, it rained and the snow is all gone. i did get my girls out before the snow disappeared and practiced your tips =)
Thank you!!!
A snow recipe exercise… a day late (as we went sledding yesterday)… but I’ll totally put it in my back pocket for the next trip up to the mountains. I tried so hard yesterday… changing my settings all around… staying out of the green box…. trying to challenge myself… hahaha… I’ll totally keep practicing. 🙂
Your photos of ski school… I totally felt like I was right there watching the kids. Beautiful. It’s always so special to go back and look at photos from past years.
Here is the link to our snow day yesterday:

Thanks for sharing the tips for snow pictures! 🙂
I have had trouble with portrait photos in the snow being too dark. So just yesterday I did an experiment to get better shots, and it worked! I wrote a blog post describing in detail what I did here:

I found that on cloudy days I need to overexpose the shot, at least according to my camera’s light meter. On days when I don’t have that bright blue sky in the background I can still see the smiles on my kids’ faces!
Thanks for the snow recipe exercise. It sure will come in handy here with the snow we get in OHIO. I can’t wait until we get enough to actually play in, only if it is my day off of work 😉 Thanks Me Ra for the wonderful tips!
