Patience

About 2 weeks ago I did a shoot in Washington, D.C. for a model named Patience. My wife who is also a professional makeup artist did her makeup in the food court of Union Station and we headed outside on a nice day to see what kind of pics we could get. Here's a few from that day.

Slow Day

Sunday was a slow day for us as we only had one shoot scheduled. We did two looks and shot at the train station in Old Town Fredericksburg, VA again. Check out the passing train in the background of the second pic.

Canon unveils EOS 500D / Rebel T1i DSLR


After much rumor and speculation, Canon has unveiled their new entry-level DSLR that effectively cuts into the market that their 50D is targeting. It has the same 15.1mp sensor as the 50D and the HD video recording of the 5D MKII, just 10fps slower at full 1080p resolution. From what I've read, I like it and at $799 for just the body, the price is a steal. While the 5D is still numero uno on my want list, the Rebel T1i will hold me over for quite some time. As always, click here for all of the details and pics.

New Canon PIXMA printer


Currently I'm in the market for an Epson photo printer but for the high end stuff I will definitely be going with Canon. Pictured above is the brand new PIXMA Pro 9500 Mark II photo printer. It's nice. Click here for the scoop.

Missed it by THAT much


Have you ever missed a shot because you didn't have the right lens? It's annoying but we can't carry every single lens, camera body, etc. with us all the time. Well, this guy can but who wants to look like him?

Just one from today's shoot

I'm being a little lazy right now and don't feel like editing. I've gone through the pics once though and deleted the unusable pics and made contact sheets. Anyway, here's one of Ryan. She was previously featured on Perfectshots.tv and is just getting back into modeling.

Another beautiful day

I only had one shoot on the schedule today and it was nice to not feel rushed during a shoot. We did three looks, all swimwear at the Rappahannock River in Fredericksburg, VA. It was nice out and we had one guy that decided to watch the shoot...he wasn't invited. Thankfully the model didn't mind. Check back later for a few pics from the shoot.

On Tuesday Apple held an iPhone OS 3.0 preview event. All the nerds (myself included) and millions of iPhone users worldwide have been talking about it ever since. Personally I can't wait until it ships this "summer" and we finally get cut, copy and paste, MMS messaging, push notification, USB tethering, turn by turn GPS navigation, and some other cool features...100 plus total. Check the link for all the info. Click here for iPhone OS 3.0 screens and info.

Wow...it's been a long time

I'm back after a 4 month hiatus. I've still been shooting and keeping busy. The business has grown and evolved. I've met some wonderful people, some not so wonderful people, and had some great shoots since I last posted.

Along with my random thoughts about photography related things and life in general, I will be posting a few pics from each new shoot I do. Currently there are a few projects that I'm working on. I'm building my bridal and swimwear portfolios and we are preparing to launch our online magazine, Candy Phat this summer. Wish me luck!!
