Photo Equipment:
Canon 5D, Lens: 24mm 1.4L Series, F-stop: f/2.5, Exposure: 1/1250sec, ISO Speed: ISO-1000, Focal Length: 24mm

Notes:
"This shot was taken at the end of the wedding when I asked all the best men to show off their abilities in one shot since they kept doing tricks throughout the day. They all agreed, and climbed onto a higher level where they did a couple of test jumps. I asked then to jump in different directions, and after three jumps I got the shot that is now before you."

Photo Equipment:
Canon Mark II N, 35mm f1.4 lens 800 ISO at 1/250 sec at f2.0

Notes:
"This type of photograph asks the client to have a lot of confidence in their photographer. They picked their location because it's beautiful river views so the idea of shooting some of their portraits against an on-site retaining wall might not have been their first choice of shooting locations.To me, this location had beautiful defused light in the corner of the tent that hit near the retaining wall. I added a canvas texture in post production from my Pro Actions Texture set."

Photo Equipment:
Canon 1Ds Mark II w/Canon 15mm f/2.8 fisheye. Shutter 1/15th sec. at f/5.6 800 ASA, Tripod mounted

Notes:

"I used a Metz 60-CT4 flash, output at f/5.6 400 ASA set behind the bride on the fence. We worked with the couple during their actual wedding at Heceta Head Lighthouse in Oregon. During our first meeting, the couple indicated a desire for artistic, editorial photography. They worked with us during the reception to make a series of sunset images on the beach head that included the light house in the background, I liked this one best. My approach creatively was to use the low light level at sunset for mood and color saturation. In addition, I used the backlight to make the dress appear translucent and to make her legs appear just slightly through the dress. I didn't use any direct front flash, that's why I had to drag the shutter a bit to allow the ambient light to slightly illuminate the front of the brides dress. I used Photoshop CS2 to burn in the sky a bit, and dogged the foreground somewhat to expose tree root detail.The brides pose was intended to invoke a sense of romance and her longing to see her new husband.
