'Little People, Big World' star, Tori Roloff loves her photography
Tori certainly got her confidence with her photography since the days when she asked fans of "Little People, Big World" for any tips and ideas.

Q&A with Tori Roloff on taking photos
Questions and answers flooded in, and here, I chose what I thought may be the most useful answers for budding photographers.
Q1: "Do you use any editing software for color?
TR: "I use Lightroom for editing."
Q2: What camera do you use?
TR: "I have a Nikon D860." She adds that she "loves it."
Q3: "Good lenses to have?"
TR: "Lenses make all the difference. I have a Sigma 35mm 1.4 Sigma Art Lens that I use on 90% of my photos. I also have a Nikon 105mm 2.0 that I LOVE to play with.
I have a 50mm 2.0 but honestly, don't use it much."
Q4: The best starter camera for photography?
TR: "My first camera was a D3000 and I learned a lot with that camera! It's a lot more affordable than a professional camera but still allows you to experience a DSLR.
Q5: Do you shoot over or under-exposed?
TR: "I always shoot slightly over-exposed.
It's easier to edit for me and a lot of times you can avoid any grain."
Q6: Do you try to take photos facing the sun or away? Does the sun look good in your photos?
TR: "Direct sunlight is extremely hard to shoot in. I try to find shady spots that have a nice backlight. An hour before sunset is THE best time for photo taking."
