Photo/Video - Floating above pavement

My photography typically all revolves around impromtu shots. Photos of social events, people, scenes, or objects I happen to come across.

I've never really strayed into setting up shots, or trying to find some especially unique situation to photograph. I think I'm going to start trying to explore posing, as that is what makes the best shots in my opinion, with some of Alyssa's shots being a good example of that.

These are all by Denis Darzacq. I've seen this guys work before and it's really cool.











I'd never had any idea how he was able to produce it until I came across this video.

Another thing that struck me is that he only seems to take a couple shots of each situation. That's impressive. If it was me, I'd be setting the camera to 10 frames-per-second and just hold down the button until the motion had stopped. But that's why I'm not a professional photographer.

I find that taking multiple shots or something like you said is a good idea, but dont forget, all the pictures will be blurry because of the movement ;)

Yeah I have enough trouble with my shots coming out soft as it is.
