Understanding Aperture 🔘 Essential Tips for Depth of Field & Low Light [Photography Basics] 

Let's dive right into the heart of photography basics. Have you ever been stuck trying to break down the fundamentals of photography for friends or family? I've found myself in that spot, so I decided to create a series of videos to tackle this challenge, starting with aperture.
➡️ Aperture is a cornerstone of photography, sitting alongside ISO and shutter speed in the trio of essential elements that form the backbone of every shot. Picture the aperture as the eye of your camera, regulating the flow of light hitting the sensor. But the aperture's role extends beyond mere light management; it's pivotal in crafting depth of field, enabling those beautiful, soft backgrounds that make subjects stand out.
In this video, I'll take you through the ins and outs of aperture, from decoding f-stop numbers to offering hands-on advice for shooting with a wide aperture. To cement your understanding, I've prepared practical exercises, such as an "aperture walk" and indoor portrait sessions, to help you apply what you've learned in real-world scenarios.
