There has been so much going on lately that I haven’t had time to post. I’ll be doing some back logging to catch up now that I finally have time. I have done some event photography, workshops, wedding, and surf photos. Now that the wedding and surf photos are out the door I’m working on a video composite of images from a car show back in my hometown.
Focus of this should be on the wedding of the amazing couple I photographed last month. These two (if you know them from the photos you will agree) are just amazing people! Luke and I had a great time hanging out with them prior to the wedding for photos as well as during. everyone was excited for the idea of photos so it worked well.
Great friends of theirs provided an amazing back yard for the pre-ceremony photos. The yard was an amazing location and produced some great photos of these two.
Luke again used his canon and I was running both the Nikon D7000 and D800. I found that during the reception I tended to lean more towards the D7000 due to the speed with it being so dark. Most of the family and couple photos were done with the D800 though. I
again used BorrowLenses to rent the Nikkor 50mm and 70-200mm. Those two lenses, I would l
ove to own! Everything good comes to those that wait. My lenses are good lenses and provide some amazing photos, especially my 105mm macro, but the glass in the 50 and 70-200 is just…wow.
My lesson learned from the last wedding was to sync the times on the cameras, we did that a day prior so editing was much easier than the lastone. The only thing I didn’t really like is that our naming conventions are still off so when they are exported they export funny. How does everyone else deal with that? Do you change all filenames upon import? Or do you just own all the cameras so that you set it how you want and it’s not an issue?
Well I have places to get some photos out to now that the couple has them. I will wait till Monday before I start sending out the other requested photos, I just feel that the couple should have some time alone with them before they really get released.
