How To Take Good Photographs of Fireworks

When you are shooting off fireworks from Jake’s Fireworks, you will likely want to capture memories from the special event with your camera. However, fireworks can be very difficult to photograph as they take place in low lighting conditions and they disappear after a few seconds. In order to get a good photograph of your fireworks from Jake’s Fireworks you will have to have your timing and your camera settings just right. Here are some tips:

 

• Use a tripod. No matter how steady your hand is, you will likely bump and jostle the camera which will lead to blurry photos. Tripods come in all shapes and sizes and don’t have to be expensive.
• Turn off the flash on the camera; it is not required because the fireworks will be bright enough.
• Instead of pressing the shutter button with your finger, try using the remote control or the timer on the camera instead. This also helps to minimize the amount of shaking.
• Alter your camera settings so that you are taking photographs on a long exposure time and shutter speed. This will capture a few seconds of the fireworks and create the look of beautiful long trails of light in the air.

With these tips, you should be able to take excellent photos of your fireworks from Jake’s Fireworks.
