Model Photoshoot: The Rainforest Nymph

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to do a photoshoot with a real live Rainforest Nymph for one of my clients. It isn’t very often that you get these kinds of opportunities considering the amount of luck that you must have to actually meet a nymph in person. We were talking about ideas [...]

Model Photoshoot: Roanne

A few days ago I had another photoshoot with a beginner model named Roanne, who I met on the Body&Soul Models website. She was a bit shy and nervous this first time working with me, but I could tell that she has a lot of potential. Below are two pictures featuring Roanne:

My First Wedding

I’ve recently had the opportunity to photograph my first wedding, and I have to say right from the start that it was a very nice experience. I’ve covered various events before in the past, so I have experience with event photography, but I have been wanting to do a wedding for a while now. Being the [...]

My Latest Model Photoshoot

As part of my goal to do some more model photography this year, I invited a friend over for a test photoshoot. I recently moved to a new location where I have an office and some more room to do my photography. I guess you could call it a small studio where I can just unpack my [...]

Results of one of my latest photowalks

I went out on a photowalk again recently with my friend Jimmy, this time specifically to capture some High Dynamic Range (HDR) images. Having experimented with it in the past in front of our houses, we thought it was time to go out and capture some more interesting images. Most of the HDR images below were [...]

My work in the latest United

The January/June 2009 edition of United Business & Lifestyle magazine is out in Suriname and the Netherlands, and for the second time my photography work is featured on the cover. I wrote about the previous time here.
The picture that was used this time is one from a shoot I did all the way back in [...]

The-Digital-Picture.com deletes “anti-Canon” post about the EOS 5D Mark II

Update 01/02/2009: After exchanging some emails with Bryan Carnathan, I was able to explain to him the purpose of my “anti-Canon” posts and he has agreed to restore my original post back on the forum. Basically I told him I am a Canon user and that the purpose of all this is not just to bash [...]

Canon EOS 5D Mark II: Barely worth it!

Note: This post has been updated below. Last update on 04/18/2009.
Canon has really lost it. It wasn’t so long that I wrote why they have lost it, and it seems that they continue to take hit after hit, not only from the competition, but from their own mistakes as well. It’s one thing to be given a [...]
