Always a thrill when a client allows me to create a project with little direction other then the space they wanted to fill. Each canvas measures 24×24 inches. These fine art high-quality canvases are a great way to display your best photos and your favourite memories. Our plan will be to switch out the images...

Kate and I really love the pics!!! Can’t wait to see more and only a couple more months ’til we pull out the kilts!!!
Don’t worry about the rent-a-cops. I’ll save you a warm bed here in Lindsay. I might even give you an extra cup of water at lunch. Great pictures as always. Love the pink dress….. size 2?????LOL

I have only dabbled in HDR and do like it although I think one needs to be subjective as when to use it and how much. The examples on this blog where I have used it is with Photomatix for the initial effect with some CS4 to finalize the look.
Appreciate the info Mark. The Sunbounce system looks like just the ticket. I’m using a windshield sunshade from the dollar store, silver one side, white the other. Matches the rest of my camera stuff, not pretty, but gets the job done.
The main thing; don’t keep blasting your subject with flash.
BTW; The photos below are kinda’ good too :>)
I’ve loved your work ever since I came across it at the Pro Show website. However I do theatre and sports photography mostly with some personal HDR mixed in when I have time. Do I sense some HDR work mixed in with yours, and if so, CS4, Photomatix, or both together. What is your workflow? I enjoy especially your Cuban work.
Good eye!…..I am using a California Sunbounce Pro Zebra reflector. It measures about 4×6 feet. It may even be a tad bigger then that. The whole package is easy to assemble and transport and takes me about 120 seconds to put together. Because it is so light I often bring it along with me and use it myself when I have no second shooter or assistant on the wedding day.
Another lovely portrait, Mark. Did you use a reflector or other light source on camera left?
