Scrap Booking or Custom Oil?

12 Sep

Scrap booking can be very fun. It can help you put all your memories in a book like story mode of your life, or someone else’s. Then you have custom oil paintings in the USA which liven up your picture. What can be better than that? Which do you like?

If you ask me I like both. Both of them offer something that the other can’t offer. On can offer a story and the other one can offer me a good picture to look at.

With scrap booking I can use anything I want to make one. It is really easy to do-it-yourself. Anyone can make one. You have to have the right materials.

With the picture, I will have to let the professional make it. It will be worth it after it is made. Plus, you can show friends and family your new photo. They will like it too.

Types of Photo Booths

30 Aug

There are various types of photo booths available, so if you wish to rent a photo booth, it may be useful to know what they are. There are traditional as well as digital booths which are available. The Chemical Photo booth produces a single strip of photographs which will contain between 3 or 4 photographs. These, however, are not easy to find as it is expensive to service them. There are Commercial Digital Photo Booths which are most commonly available. This is because the setup process is reasonably easy and, cost wise, they are easy to transport. Digital photo booths are more readily available due to how easy it is to come by the software these days. Mobile Booths are also available and because they are quite large, they are often transported via trailer. Depending on what your budget is, you can inquire at various photo booth renting companies about which booths they have available.

Independent and Agency Photographers

20 Aug

I would like to take the time to tell you the difference between independent photographers and photography agencies. There are many pros and cons when choosing between independent photographers and the agencies. Let me tell you about the agencies first. The good things about agencies, like the Charleston wedding photographers, are they have the latest equipment in photography software. They also have backup photographers if something had to happen with the photographer you have chosen. One thing about the agency photographer is that they are a bit pricey. On the other hand independent photographers are much more affordable, but they usually do not have the equipment or software that the agencies have which could make your photos a bit less good looking. In the end it would be up to you to decide which is more important, better quality photos or your money’s worth. After all it is your big day and you want something decent to show your kids one day.

Choose Your Photographer: Some Tips

01 Aug

If you are getting married or simply hosting some kind of event, be it corporate or sporting, you need to choose your Philadelphia photographers with care. The photographer you choose will need to be experienced in dealing with your kind of event. If you are doing a sporting event you want a photographer with a fast camera and quick finger to capture those great moments and tragic starts. If you are getting married then you want at least one photographer, but two is better since you can then get pictures of the guests while you go and have your posed pictures taken. The biggest factor though is experience. An experienced photographer will get more good shots than an inexperienced one which means you get more value for your money as well as a lot more great pictures to remember your event by. The wrong photographer could make your memories of a special day tarnish a lot more quickly.

Chromatic Aberration and Vignetting on Tokina 16.5-135 Lens

20 Jun

I just tested this Tokina 16.5-135 lens and I will be sharing with you some of the vignetting and chromatic aberration characteristics that this lens has. These two characteristics are very important especially if you are doing any kind of professional photography works. You will want to have both at the minimum.

Unfortunately, this lens failed to perform on both ends. There is significant chromatic aberration at both focal range ends. This is true at the 16.5 and 135mm focal length. You can easily fix this issue using any post processing software of course, but I prefer to have it right on the lens in the first place.

Then, in terms of vignetting, this lens is pretty high on vignetting, especially on the widest focal length. You need to stop down by at least two stops to see some significant improvements here. This is quite an unfortunate thing to have on this lens.

Tamron 180mm Macro Review a Very Sharp Lens!

10 Jun

I purchased this lens after reading this convincing Tamron 180mm macro review on the internet. When I did my first shot, I have to say that this is a very sharp lens. I bought this lens from one of the stores that he recommended online. For the price that I got it at, I have to say that this is truly a bargain lens!

After getting this lens, I keep thinking about buying a 60mm in addition to this one. The primary reason being due to its portability that the Tamron 180mm simply does not have. The Tamron 60mm macro would fit in my pocket as opposed to my 180mm with convertors and ringflash. However, I remember what is so great about this lens and I realized that that the handy and small Tamron 60mm just would not give me what I find so useful in this Tamron 180mm lens.

The Wedding Party Needs to Be Patient with the Photographer

19 Apr

A good wedding photographer makes the day perfect in pictures. The memories of a wedding day should be captured in idyllic perfection. The bride is caught in images at the prime of her life as she is embarking on a lifelong journey with her mate. A bride works hard to pick the perfect gown, to get her hair and makeup perfect and to pick the perfect spot for the photos to be taken. The photographer needs to come ready to handle any lighting situation and with equipment to showcase rather than compensate for issues at the site. The photographer’s eye is constantly looking to make the images perfect from composition to using light to warm skin tones. Subjects might get bored at being posed, having ties and gowns straightened or waiting while object in the background are moved. However, patience of the subjects pays off with wedding pictures that wow instead of just being ho hum.

I Miss Film

20 Aug

All my friends love the digital cameras. They are user friendly and show you instant results. They are quiet and cheap to run. Compared to the complexity, expense and awkwardness of film cameras what is there not to like? For many years digital cameras, apart from the very expensive ones, were not the same resolution and quality of a similarly priced film camera but that has now changed. So why do I miss them so much.

Being a professional wedding photographer I am now finding that I am working a lot harder for the same money.(taking into account inflation its probably a lot less) Yes, I am taking better pictures because I am taking a lot more and experimenting more because I can. But I am also editing all my own images for 3 days after the wedding where as before all I had to do was hand my 3 or 4 rolls of 36 prints to my carefully selected printer and hey presto my work was done. With film cameras a wedding photographers job was known to be skilled and the casual amateur would not risk competing with the professional. The Yellow Pages had a dozen or so local wedding photographers and that was it. Today a Google search for creative wedding photography will give you a choice of over a million. How times have changed.
