Photography Tips from Landscape Photographer Andy Katz

Photographer Andy Katz joins us today on the Marc Silber show to share advice on achieving great natural lighting and composition for photographs. He does not confine himself to only one type of photography—although he mainly shoots landscapes, he also enjoys working with people, especially when he's able to shoot record album cover photographs.

Andy enjoys working outdoors to use the light of the sun, rather than staying in a studio with lighting equipment. He refers to the three elements present in any great photograph: content, composition and light. Any photo must have all three of these to successfully draw a viewer into the image. He loves taking photos when the sun is close to the horizon, since it produces a rich, golden light and creates gorgeous shadows. He is adamant about shooting photos only when the light is ideal and will often wait until the sun hits the right angle for that perfect shot.

As a seasoned photographer, Andy understands how crucial it is to have reliable equipment with him at all times. When working with natural light, he needs to capture as many photographs as he can in a limited amount of time. With SanDisk large-capacity memory cards, photographers never have to worry about missing that perfect photograph.
