Hi all, looking for advise on shooting an indoor event, basic beer, burgers and general good times.
I’ve been asked to cover an event, now please before it happens, I’m just looking for tips and advise, I DONT want this to turn into a “your not qualified, let them pay a pro” thing. It’s something I’d like to learn and way to get started.
It’s a tricky one, as my boss runs the club that organise the event, I can say no, but it’s a bit awkward, they know I’m mostly outdoor sports with little to know experience with indoor photography and zero experience with flash, and I’ve warned them loads that I won’t and can’t guarantee usable images, but they know I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so what ever I get is going to be better the iPhone snaps.
This event has outdoor areas, indoor with reasonably good lighting and then a nightclub type bit with live music.
So I know the basics, understand mostly for good light, it’s the low light and flash I’m struggling with.
Any tips or help would be great.
