Photography Question 

Darlene Christensen
 

Definition of Lifestyle


Can anyone give me a few examples of what is considered "Lifestyle" photography? I know what I "THINK" it is..but I'm not sure I'm right! And "Corporate" too! Thanks! Darlene

  Lifestyle-any activity, for fun or part of daily routine. Running, hiking, reading books, even mom kids and minivan, man and woman together looking like they're enjoying each other's company. At home, at a cafe.
Corporate-anybody in a suit, at work, on a phone, on a computer. Anybody looking like they want to be a Trump.

  Thanks Greg...that helps define it for me. I appreciate it. From the threads I've been reading, you've been taking it pretty tough over the last week or so. You have to admit your answers are not always "warm and fuzzy" and you often come off like a Simon Cowell personality..BUT you do offer an alternative viewpoint in a devil's advocate type style. I have to admit I look to see if you have put in your 2 cents if only to see the dust-up it causes! But lastly, you've given me some good information thru my own posts and posts of others.

  I somewhat agree with Darlene. Greg, you have a wonderful gallery and I would love to be able to take sports images like you do. I look forward to your comments as they tend to evoke emotion in some which makes these forums quite lively. When you shoot in gymnasiums, what are you using? I have tried to get those kind of images with my Digital Rebel. I'm using a 70-300 lens as wide open as I can, but without being able to use flash I have to crank it up to 800 or 1600. When I use my add on flash at full force, I can get pretty good pictures (with dark backgrounds), but it would blind all of the players momentarily. Any suggestions you could give me would be much appreciated.
