Re: Wedding Photographer Resources - Please Contribute!
• What was your photography background before you started shooting weddings? I primarily photographed animals, wildlife and nature. I was afraid to photograph people until our fashion photography course in photography school (I got so hooked on photography that I quit a good-paying marketing/pr job when I was 35 and went… -
Re: Customers reselling prints?
Clearly. Pricing at this level will get you nothing but frustration both through discontentment within your self and the inevitable nagging whingers that will still moan about everything which undervalued work seems to attract. At $5 for an 8x10? If your in the middle, what are the low end guys doing? Paying the Clients to… -
Re: Books!
Who's this "Prof Colen"? Anyway, this is copied from my MIT course syllabus - First, the required books .... Doing Documentary Work – Robert Coles – the compilation of a series of lectures the Harvard psychiatrist and documentarian gave at the New York Public Library. The lectures explore the ethical, intellectual, and… -
Re: Justiceiro's 70-300 IS Review
Here's my $0.02 after having a while to play around with my EF 70-300 f4-f5.6 USM. This is the first "quality" lens I've owned, if you define quality as "a lens that costs about as much as a cheap DSLR." Actually, this lens currently retails for about $550 at B&H, so as far as the higher end Canon lenses go it isn't too… -
Re: Best books?
Okay, Quincy - you asked - First, here are the books I list in my syllabus. IF you were only to invest in two books, if you were only to look at two, the first two Magnum collections, if lived with and absorbed, would do much to advance the photography of anyone serious about improving his or her own work: “Magnum Contact… -
Re: LPS#6 Feedback thread
Feedback on my runner-ups.... Here's my feedback on those who didn't make my top ten. Believe me, that many of you almost did! I had a huge first cut with so many great images. Elimination was sometimes just a seemingly small reason and sometimes I just had to make a gut decision. I'm offering a small bit of feedback in… -
Re: A Day in the Life of Dgrin! - THE BIG REVEAL!...
A day in the life? Well, why not. I call this snapshots of my day because the light and weather (extreme wind) did not help. But, hey, it's just to share what happened that day, right? So here goes. The prior Saturday Rayna took her car to get a smog. Now back over 20 years ago in New Jersey registration was paid according… -
Re: >>>LPS#14 Feedback Thread
I hope this isn't entirely too little too late territory, but here goes anyway ;-) 2 - MarkTodd - Breakfast Paradise If Kelloggs were to make a TelliTubbies cartoon it would look like this! A lot of fun to look at. Well done. Kind of a mix of smooth and craggy-ish, but still works for me. 3 - fashiznitsngrins - Hills of… -
Re: >>> LPS#13 Feedback Thread
21 - Shamguess - Luna Park Beautiful night shot, I love when lights can be reflected in water. The composition feels off a bit to me. The dock may be doing it. It might be skewing the balance without anything to counter act it. An alternate possibility would be to shoot the same scene with the dock centered. Would it point… -
Re: PS LAB Color, Chapter 16 -- Recipe for portraits
[size=+2]Female, Middle Aged, African American[/size] So far I've walked through the portrait recipe two younger caucasian people. Now let's try a middle aged African-American woman. This will demonstrate two new issues:* A different color balance is required for the overlay blends, and * We have to be careful not to apply…
