Adventure Photography: 4 Tips to Get an Epic Shot | Get Out: A Guide to Adventure

Hi, my name is Keith Linski. I'm an adventure photographer and filmmaker. Today, I'm going to talk a little bit about essential things I bring in the field for every shoot.

There are so many great apps that make photography so much easier out in the field. One I really like is Sun Surveyor. What this app does is it allows me to figure out where the sun's going to come up and where it's going to set. I can even know that if I'm scouting at noon, at 6:00 later that day, the sun's going to go down there, and I can kind of pre-build the composition.

I've used split neutral density filters for the last 20 years, and they are an essential part of my kit. They go with me everywhere. They're pretty simple; you just slip them right onto the front of your camera like any filter. What they do is they help combat situations where the light is uneven. I think this is an essential tool that any photographer or filmmaker should always have. They weigh next to nothing, and they can really make an impossible shot possible.

If I'm going out into the backcountry, an item that's become so household is the GoPro. I like to bring a stabilizer for my GoPro. The combined kit is incredibly light; it's great for run-and-gun shooting behind somebody or in front of somebody. This is perfect.

I'm a big fan of using off-camera lighting. I like to bring a full battery-operated light. It could be a small light or a big light such as this. Having an extra light can really open up a lot of opportunities to get photos that you couldn't get otherwise.
