    Lens AF Alignment..a couple ways.

    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.

    Expression Media 2 Workflow

    It was summer and I was hired to shoot the Little League Juniors baseball state championships.  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.  Being a software developer and a video editor, I know there really [...]

    Who says you need the right tools?…I do!

    For the love of pete, will I ever learn?  They always say the right tools make a job go faster and easier. In they heyday of my poorboy days, I did almost all of my automotive work myself.  And over the years I was able to assemble a meager tool kit.  For a while the [...]

    Equipment Dilemma for Senior Pictures Bokeh Shoots

    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 [...]

    Alien Bees PLM Senior Shoot samples

    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.  We positioned the subject far enough from the background to get a light meter reading of the reflected light [...]
