Baby, it’s cold outside. And that’s hell for us outdoor photographers. The frigid cold is tough on the body and equipment. There’s not much to photograph, except white on white. Even the wildlife is hunkered down.

But, fortunately there’s always tons of work to do inside, like catalog photos, edit, and sharpen techniques by studying. But, if you want to keep the creative juices flowing, there’s plenty to shoot inside, too.

Dream up still life photos from prized possessions sitting around the house, super market plants, or deals from the dollar store.

Last winter, my husband and I challenged each other. With a set dollar amount, we went on a spree at an antique shop. Came home and set up the tabletop studio. We even surprised ourselves with our creations.

I feel truly blessed to be living in Western New York. From rural landscapes to city scenery, a variety of wildlife, and the four seasons, this area is a photographer’s dream.

Each of the four seasons provide unique photo opportunities. And the bitter harsh winters are no exception. There is nothing more breathtaking than fresh fallen snow. With skies of brilliant blue or gray clouds, one can capture the pure essence of cold.

So don’t let these frosty moments pass you by. Bundle up and enjoy.
