1 Kilt 10 Looks : A Visual Guide to Formality in Highland Attire

[Kilted Rogue]

We both use Sony Cyber-shot digital cameras and a tripod with a 10 second delay. Jamie took his pictures over three days between 8:30 and 9:30 AM to keep the lighting about the same. I took mine about 2:00-3:00 PM for the same reason, I use a large tripod while Jamie used a smaller portable one. I'd say you really need the 10 second delay.

Thank you for the details .

I always have a hard time getting head to toe in the shot, and it still be close enough to see all the accessories.

KR,

I am not a very accomplished photographer but here is exactly what I did to get a good full body shot.

First I set my camera on a small table and focused it on the white bench that stood about 15 feet away.

Next I set the 10 second delay timer and walked over to the bench to pose.

I would do this three times and pick the clearest / best photo

Most of the time the photo was off center but this doesn't matter, all I want is clear photo that has my whole body in it.

After uploading my pictures to my computer I use the simple program that comes with the Cyber-shot camera to do a little editing.

First I crop the image so that I am centered and get rid of the large expanse of background around me and then I play with the colors a little bit to darken the picture (colors seem to wash out a bit when photographed outside). If the picture has any red eye I remove it last and save the picture.

I hope this was of help

Cheers

Jamie
