Cliff Mautner Boot Camp

This past week I attended a photography workshop put on by Cliff Mautner. Cliff is one of the best wedding photographers in the world and you can see some of his work here, www.cmphotography.com. I learned a great deal and met some great people and highly recommend this workshop. Here's a few of my images from the shoots we did.

This past weekend I was in New Orleans, Louisiana for a vacation weekend. I also got to spend a little time in a nearby swamp and was able to capture this image of an alligator that approached our airboat. I made this image with my Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 lens at a focal length of 200mm, aperture of f/4.5, and exposure of 1/1250th of a second at ISO 200.

This weekend I had the opportunity to photography a friend on mine's 6-month old baby. I particularly liked this image of the little guy that I caught near the end of our session. I made this image using my Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 lens at an aperture f/2.2 and exposure of 1/320 at ISO 400.

This week's photo of the week comes from the Alison and Joe's wedding which I photographed this past weekend. Alison and Joe are a fun easy going couple which I have had the pleasure of getting to know over the last year. This worked out well as we wanted to take a few formals outside and the 40 degree weather and 40 mph wind did not make it easy. Still there were a few moments such as this one where the weather really didn't seem to matter. More pictures from Alison and Joe's wedding will be coming soon.

Photo of the Week 8/16/10

I recently photographed the wedding of a wonderful couple, Justin and Beth. I always enjoy finding candid moments at weddings and at this one there were plenty. This shot was taken at the start of the reception held at a family farm in Millerton, NY. This image was made with my Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 lens at a focal length of 170mm and aperture of f/2.8 and shutter speed of 1/320th of a second at ISO of 100.
