Ok, If taking my camera to this show wasn't a quick crash course in speed settings, ISO settings and aperture, I don't know what was. Here are a couple of my favorites (even if they aren't perfect)! I plan to sit down and analyze what went wrong and what went right (there was way more wrong in all of the photos) and then share some of my findings soon!

I like fashion shows. Unfortunately they are very rare here.
I like these photos. What is wrong with the others?
I also use a D90, let me know if I can help you in anything.
They look great! So jealous.. hope you had a great time!

Isn't it SO HARD to shoot the fashion shows?! I had such trouble getting good pictures at NY Fashion Week! But you did a great job!! Very cool designs here and I look forward to seeing MORE!!!

I love the composition of the first photo! Very nice!
that light looks so tricky!! anyway they turned out pretty nice
Wow! To be honest, you look like a pro - these are some of the best photographs I have ever seen taken at a fashion show. Like something straight out of a magazine!! :)
I think you did a great job! I'm so jealous that you had a chance to go to a fashion show in Zurich! It looks so cool!!
love the 2nd shot
ooh looking forward to hearing
You are lucky. I've never even gotten to attend a fashion show. I'm so jealous.
*sigh* I want long legs...
I laughed at your holiday cup comment. Every one really is talking about them. We must not have much to get excited about these days ;)
ah, yes, the fun part of the DSLR! ;-)
fun feeling of being there in these pics though! awesome you get to be a part of it.
Wow, looks like you had fun! So much to learn from cameras, hey!
I'm much more into composition than all that ISO stuff (probably because I don't understand it AT ALL).
And I love the composition of that top picture. It is awesome.
Løøøøv it.

Fashion shows are difficult. Everyting happens very fast, even the light changes... to take good photos it's better to change position frequently (so each one is different) and be a little bit cheeky. Technical issues are very important, it takes a lot of experience with so much contrast. I like the first photo, it's very dynamic, but I always prefer to see models face. Did you use flash?
You did a great job!!!!
The first one is amazing!
Btw thank you very very much for your comment!
Hope you like my blog as well and follow me back!

I still like the photos you added! I understand the troubles of trying to adjust your camera settings while you're in the middle of trying to take pictures.. you did a nice job!

e.
but i love all of them. not easy to take a good picture from runway.

Wow, what an experience! I have a hard time with moving subjects, I bet it was difficult to focus your shots and still get the composition that you wanted?
Luvs!! Have a fabulous weekend!
So cool you were there shooting!
can't take my eyes off the shade of orange - brilliant, xx
I agree, when I went to a fashion show here, it was difficult to capture a good photo. But these two you selected are great. The first photo you captured the model as she was walking (that must not be easy as they walk quite fast! ) wish I had her legs. second photo I like that the audience was captured in the background.
These are lovely photos. I'd love to take photos of a fashion show too. :)

Oh I love these! And I love your analytical spirit too, its always so important to find ways for improvement. But I must say that I find these images quite beautiful. :)
I freak out a little bit whenever I'm in a dark place and I am trying to take photos. I don't like using the flash and I am still figuring out the settings on my DSLR.

I see what you mean about the lighting, but in time you'll get great pictures 'cause the second picture is nice!!!
http://themessenger-bag.blogspot.com
it was a learning experience so that is great in any case for you :) I have plenty of mishaps. lol, but anyway, these are pretty cool, I have never been to a fashion show.
I hope you had a great time!!! Great photos nonetheless;)
wow you did a great job. you need to give me a lesson, eveyone always looks liek a blur in my photos
Bright Green Laces
regardless, you did an excellent job! the pictures are beautiful! :)
nice shot. it's very nice picture
You're too hard on yourself - they look great! Thanks for the post (and thanks for following today too xo)

nice blog :D
The Nikon's sure have great low light ability, which is the reason why I switched over from the dark side ….canon!. when I went SLR digital…..
I think you are being a bit harsh on yourself, the pictures are great.
If you are finding that some of your other shots have gone a bit orange when you crank up the ISO (or is that down) you can try playing around with the White Balance, set the WB on a cool setting which should get the shot back to a more natural colour.
One thing to remember there is no such thing as the perfect I often find the shot that other people like are not necessary the ones that I rate. Once you put your pictures out there wave goodbye to artistic control….
Sooo jealous!! These images are amazing! I almost feel like I'm there :)
STILL PRETTY IMPRESSIVE!!!
XOXO
ohh thanks sweetie <3 :D
I really like the orange/red colour in the second picture, i want a coat in that exact colour.
peace

grüße :)
I can imagine it must be very difficult to photograph during shows, you have to be very quick! Though I do like the first picture, it captures the energy of the model well.
How exciting for you to get to go to this. Hope you got to enjoy it!
Kacia
you did a great job taking these photos in my opinion! love it xx
That orange outfit is lovely! Perfect for this time of year. I love it!
So awesome! I'd love to go to a fashion show!

I'm so terrible at figuring out ISO and all that fun stuff on cameras.. plus I hate it when certain modes don't seem to flow as easy as they should for when you're taking something that should work in that mode! Definitely share your settings. :) But these pictures still look really good. <33
That orange ensemble is very happy. Gute Nacht fuer jetzt, liebe Krystal xxxx
yes it really was, it was such a great day!

Oh I know it's really hard to take good pictures at a catwalk, I tried it when I was in London, but it's difficult. I love the orange dress, it has a nice colour and shape.

Beautiful photos. I always seem to find the best way to learn features on my camera is when I need to use them.
These are good photos! Looks good from what I see.

I can't even imagine what it would be like to possess such beautiful, long legs! Thanks for sharing these Superior Snaps...
Goodness Krystal!! Just look at all these comments!! :)
Love both pictures for different reasons. The second one has a great sense of contrast - the orange against the dark audience. Would love to paint the backdrop black/white and leave the girl in colour..
OMG the legs on the girl in no 1.. Those were the days.. :)
Thanks for your comment just now.

Hey Krystal, just a little advice if i may. I had the same trouble with my live music pics so i bought a new lens with low aperture (50mm,f1.8) for when it gets really dark, you can pick a nikon one up for about £100. Next time use aperture mode and put it on the lowest setting if your using a zoom, set it to about 3.5/4. set the metering mode to either center weighted or spot, so the camera takes a light reading off the person instead of an average for the whole room. finally gradually increase the iso until the shutter speed is quick enough and your pics sharp.
If you are using a zoom, in aperture mode the aperture number will increase on your screen the more you zoom, thats what the 3.5-6.5 etc value means on the lens, the wider thr angle the more light it can let in on most zoom lenses.
Hope this helps, taking low light pics took me quite a while to master.
