When I first joined Verde, I didn’t have much photography experience, and I found the Verde cameras difficult and complicated to use. I wasn’t happy with the first few photos I took for my stories, so I made sure to go back and try again, adjusting the composition, shutter speed and aperture until I produced a photo I liked. By taking a lot more photos, I began to improve my photography and gain more confidence. I was also able to better utilize dominant photos in designs.
