Photographing Storms
We love watching summer storms roll over the
mountains or prairies. And there are few things
more peaceful than falling asleep to the sound of
rain. If were being honest we love everything
about summer storms, including the photo
opportunities! So here are 3 quick tips to taking
awesome storm photographs. Make sure youre

catch our next blog post on photographing
lightning too!
Tip 1 Look for LIGHT first. What makes a storm
incredible is being able to see all of the
details of the storm. So this comes when there is
enough contrast between the system and the
surrounds. You might see an incredible storm
cloud, but unless there is enough contrast in the
cloud to create detail or enough contrast between
the cloud and the ground, your photograph will
fall flat.

Tip 2 Add in a subject for SCALE Scale is so
important when it comes to photographing the
weather. Look for a foreground or a subject that
you can use to show your viewer just how big the
storm that you are photographing is. This will
help to make your scene seem more impressive and
grand (because lets be honest, some of the
storms you see are HUGE!).

Tip 3 Be SAFE Have PATIENCE Not to be too
obvious about this, but safety is key when youre
storm hunting. Conditions can change very quickly
and while all is clear and sunny one minute, you
may very well be standing in the middle of a hail
storm the next minute. So be prepared to move to
shelter quickly. You will need to have an
abundance of patience. Summer storms can move
very quickly and you will have to pay close
attention to changing light conditions. Be
prepared to stop, setup and take a shot all
within 30 seconds so that you dont miss the
perfect scene.
