Thought I’d share with you today a rig I put together for shooting events and outdoor portraits. The idea of the rig is to have the ability to rotate the camera on axis from landscape to portrait quickly , have just about anytype of flash mounted off camera, tripod support without the bulk of a tripod [...]
If you want to go about checking your Auto Focus accuracy with your particular Camera/Lens, here are a couple ways to go about it. One is free and one is not. If your camera has LiveView go to http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/cameras/1ds3_af_micoadjustment.html#AF_test_image and download the test image on his page, then follow his instructions…the page is a little messy [...]

I knew I was going to need a workflow that could help me process hundreds of images a night and provide the necessary integration with my website.

So I have two senior pictures photo shoots this weekend…both on location and both where I want to do some creative outdoor shots with creamy blur bokeh backgrounds. At present, I have a D300, a Nikon f/2.8 24-70, and a Nikon f/2.8 70-200. So one word of advice…never go to the client consultation/location scouting meeting [...]
Here’s a quick gallery of images from the senior pictures photo shoot using the new Alien Bees PLM. For the high key, we used two Impact 100 w/s strobes to light the white seemless at f11.
