How to Create Beautiful Long Exposure Shots: AVGCAMPRO Walkthrough

So you would like to take your photography to the next level?  Today’s darkroom tutorial will cover iPhone long exposures. A long exposure is used to sharply capture the stationary elements of images while blurring, smearing, or obscuring its moving elements. This is very useful when shooting beach scenes, waterfalls or even night photography. In this tutorial I will cover everything from the setup needed to take the shot to getting the most out of it with your edit.


Read the FULL TUTORIAL where Jamie (@landcreature_) will walk us through shooting long exposures with AVGCAMPRO. Prior planning, location, and compostion are key factors in creating gorgeous landscape shots.

About the shot:
I wanted to go with a “multiplied subject” theme for this shot. The challenge was two-fold. A steady camera and a cooperative subject.


Process:
Stabilized the camera at the same fixed location for all 4 shots. Used ProCamera because of the quick capture rate. Took one shot of her posing in each chair.

Pulled each shot down to my iPad via Photo Stream and imported them into a new Filterstorm Pro collection. Using the Double Exposure tool I worked from back to front and blended in each shot using the Normal blend mode.

Next, I loaded into Snapseed and applied Vintage Style 9 with Texture Strength up and Center Focus at a level that provided a nice vignette. Then the image was converted to BW using the Contrast setting.

Finished remaining touch ups in Filterstorm Pro. Saved, treated with Instagram’s Rise Filter and posted.
