Question–: Photography tips? Not just easy/obvious ones?
I work with a teenager in foster care who is interested in photography, and I want to show her some things. I have a great Nikon digital SLR camera, also a macro-lens and a wide angle lens, but I’m still kind of new tot his. What are some tips or techniques I can teach her? The more interesting the better!

Here are some basic things I already know:
Using RAW images instead of JPEG, shutter speed manipulation, the rule of thirds, taking photos of things like pets and flowers at their level

Thanks in advance for any replies!

This is not a technical tip, but my advice would be for her to photograph
what she likes/loves…It will come through in the finished product.

Answer by Kris L
Take the teenager shopping and buy the BEST camera you can afford to give the teen … with as large a pixel count as possible. Write to the Adobe company, and tell them you have a teen in foster care you are trying to help, and ask them to give you the latest Photoshop disks. Then take the teen and both of your cameras and take as many pictures as possible, going through the ‘list of features’ on both of your cameras at least ten times each (you can do ten of one feature then move on, or you can rotate through them all ten times). Then learn to use the Photoshop with the teen, filing ALL of the good photos but also all of the ‘flubs’ on a computer the teen can get to and use regularly. This way you won’t be ‘teaching’ the teen (not a good idea for teenagers) but will be learning together … it’s a great way to get to know a person, and the teen will feel better for taking her own pictures with her own camera and ‘developing’ them on the computer. Then, when you have at least 50 photos the teen wants to keep, take them to a camera store and talk to the owner or manager about getting a ‘deal’ on developing and printing as many of the photos as possible, with two prints each … one 4×6″ for ‘files’ and the rest at least 8″x12″ or larger if possible. You will become this teen’s FRIEND FOR LIFE and you’ll always have that ‘photo learning connection’ to carry both of you through life.

make it a mutual learning adventure, that is the best kind when you can both learn together and both be students/teachers of each other.
any book store has “Digital Photography for Dummies”, get a copy and study it together…(Those “for Dummies” and “Complete Idiot’s Guide” books are loaded with useful information, and even i can understand them. (and i’m not the sharpest pencil in the box)
