How We Got the Shots: 5 Photographers, 5 Stories

How We Got the Shots: 5 Photographers, 5 Stories

Have you ever looked at a night photo and thought, “How by gosh did they do that?” Friday night is your chance to find out!

Join five Night Photo Summit speakers for this special pre-conference panel session. Alex Wides, Forest Chaput de Saintonge, Marybeth Kiczenski, Prince Berkoh and Susan Magnano will each share a night photo from their portfolio and will tell the story behind the shot—anything from the circumstances in the field, to gear they used, to post-production techniques to finish the job. See the methods behind the madness of images of celestial bodies, alpine star trails, light painting, auroras and goats.

Then hang around to ask questions of all the presenters, and to generally just have a good time and a few laughs in this lead-up to the fifth annual Night Photo Summit.
