All of these shots were with the Canon 200 F2.0. This lens is world class. The more I use it the more I cannot live without it. I do not think there is a lens as sharp as this. The only down side, it is big and heavy to be trucking around in a wedding environment and if it is not an outdoor wedding your use becomes limited.
I will post some pic’s after the event to convey some of the ideas I have.
Port City Business
Port City Business Resources Project
If you are looking to advertise your business to other businesses this is a great place to do it. I had the pleasure working with President Steve Wike along with Steve McMillan of Cape Fear Video Productions to put an image on Port City Business. From the multiple plane trips for Aerials to the web design, I had a great time working with everyone. I highly encourage one to use Port City Business for effective marking solutions. Have your business in in print in front of 25,000 + businesses in the area. Wilmington Area.
Steve McMillan Was the first cover story of Port City Business. I was also tasked to photograph Steve for the “Cover Shot.” It was important to convey Wilmington so we headed to Downtown River Front. I have been experimenting with Led Lighting for several reasons. This shot was pulled off without flash and with the use of one assistant holding a 72 led lamp from the side highlighting the face and using natural light form the sunset on the other side. The one thing I like is that if you look at the eyes there is very minimal light reflection you would otherwise get form diffused flash lighting. WIth Led’s you do have to compensate for the color spectrum in post processing or otherwise use some gels over the light. These LED’s were battery operated and easy to carry. For location shoots where time is not a factor they work great. However, I have used them in situations where time was of the essence and they worked very quick.
