Puerto Rico Destination Wedding

December 31, 2008

I’ve been out for about three weeks doing a lot of traveling, spending time with family and shooting weddings. I traveled to Puerto Rico to shoot a beach wedding on the 20th of this month. The weather was perfect and the location was even better. It was in Steps Beach located in Rincon, Puerto Rico. It was an outdoor wedding/reception with a lot of guests, tons of color and lots of latin music of course. The couple was busy all day as you would expect but I had the chance to grab them and took them to the beach. We had little time to set up so I grabbed my SB-800 and used on-camera to get this shot.

Congrats to Alana and Robert! Best wishes!

D3X finally announced…officially that is.

December 1, 2008

Nikon officially announced the D3X after being miss-announced a couple of days ago by Nikon Pro Mag in Europe.

Well, it’s finally here but, Nikon decided to let it go for $8,000 or $7,999.95 to be exact. ARE YOU KIDDING!? I don’t even think Donald Trump would pay $8k’s for a camera. After all, it’s just a D3 with more resolution and slower frame rate. Pretty much. It even has the same body. You probably need this if you’re a fashion photographer or something like that working for some big company or magazine. And then again, you don’t even need that much resolution to do a magazine shoot which is not bigger than 8×11 INCHES! My point is, I don’t see an average Joe buying this camera just because he’s shooting a couple of weddings next year. Nikon needs to understand this and drop the price because if they do drop the price, more people will buy this. In the mean time, just get a D3 or a D700 if you want Nikon’s best.
