Engagement Session in Laguna Beach

Yesterday I met with Jennifer and David in Laguna Beach to shoot some engagement photos. They're getting married in April in Yosemite and I can't wait to shoot their wedding at that awesome location.

It was raining a lot when I left home in the morning but we didn't get a single drop while we were shooting, just some threatening dark clouds... I love shooting whith this type of weather, the light is just great.

I have to thank David for taking me to this location, I'll definitely go back with future couples.

What are you looking at pal?

(Mantis religiosa)
It's been a while since I saw one of these... I remember they were very common in Argentina when I was a kid, you could see a lot of them specially during hot summer days.

Shot with a Nikon D2X and Lensbaby 2.0 with macro kit 10+, f4... 1 inch away or less.


Well hello...

Blink-Free Group Photos, Guaranteed

Don't you hate it when a perfectly good group photo gets ruined by one or two individuals blinking?


Thankfully, Nic Svenson and Piers Barnes of the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Research Organization have already done the heavy lifting. Their research calculates the number of photos you must take to virtually guarantee that nobody in a group will have their eyes closed.

Here’s their rule of thumb: For groups smaller than 20, divide the number of people by three if there’s good light and two if the light’s bad. That’s how many shots you need to take.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I attended Joe Buissink and Marcus Bell's seminar today at the LAX Hilton.
It was great to see how this two heavyweights in the industry think about photography. Looking at Joe's work up close was a real treat too. For those of you who may not know Joe Buissink, in a few words he's a "celebrity wedding photographer" (much more really).

Joe Buissink focused on the way he approaches photography, as art, with passion, shooting from the heart. He also shared a lot of images and a couple of personal projects and a lot of people were very curious about his celebrity weddings so he talked a little about that.


Marcus Bell talked more about the technical and business aspects of wedding photography. He shared the way he runs his successful studio in Australia and lots of Photoshop/Lightroom stuff.
