Engagement session photos

Herson — Fri, 08 May 2009 07:16:12 +0000

As usual, I have a couple of engagement session photo shoots this weekend here in Virginia Beach. There is also another first wedding anniversary photo shoot coming up shortly.

I love being a wedding photographer in Virginia Beach because it’s a nice area and the couples always seem to be very social and fun to shoot with. I always look forward to meeting my couples and doing the shoots with them and it’s no different now for these upcoming shoots so stick around for more.

The new Nikon D90 has been announced by Nikon. It has a CMOS sensor, went up to 12MP and a new feature called D-Movie which allows you to record HD video up to 720p at 24fps with sound. They also claim low noise up to ISO 3200. I hope so! It will be available by the end of the month. You can pre-order through Amazon or Ritz. Go HERE for all the details. Will keep you updated.

Virginia Beach Plymouth Prowler Shoot

Herson — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 03:17:00 +0000

When I started photography I started doing a lot of automotive photography until I basically got tired of shooting cars and then moved to what I do now. Weddings, Portraits, etc. Being able to interact with people motivates me but this assignment was one of a kind. I had the opportunity to shoot 36 Plymouth Prowlers @ The Virginia Beach Boardwalk and I had a blast. These guys traveled from all over the country (even Canada) to meet here in Virginia Beach, talk about cars and have a good time.
They told me they wanted a panorama with all the Prowlers in it and of course, they wanted to be able to see the beach. Well that almost ended up being rocket science!

I took individual shots of the cars and when it was time for the big shot I had to go inside someones hotel room and use their balcony for the shot. (no, I didn’t steal anything) I was using a 12-24mm wide angle lens and guess what? It wasn’t wide enough so I had to improvise. I took 12 hand held shots and decided I was going to stitch ‘em up later in post. I pulled this one off and everybody was amazed with the results giving the situation we ended up dealing with. (not a lot of room for the shot they were looking for). Saved the day!

Nikon D90

Herson — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:48:00 +0000

Looks like the new Nikon D90 will be announced this week. The D90 will replace the almost 2 years old D80.
Not that it means much for us wedding photographers but we can expect it to be as good as the D80 and of course better.
It will probably sport the same sensor as the D300 in a smaller, more advanced-amateur package rather than the semi-pro D300. That will place the D90 between the already famous D300 and the new amateur oriented D60. Check here for more updates.
