Doug and Vonda were married last Saturday, and I witnessed two truly happy people. They couldn’t stop looking into each other’s eyes. Now that is a wedding!
Doug and Vonda and a number of their guests are die-hard into shagging, so the dance floor was red-hot all night long.
Below are a few of the pics of the day:
Here is the response i left on my blog after your question.
What I mean is, that many photographers are in the bussiness more to sell to other photograpers and charge outrageous amounts of money for things that are very simple to do like the actions etc. When you purchase these actions for photoshop you pay a lot of money for something that can be done very easily and more important these actions wont work that great for you. they have benn built by the photographer for his images. i have a ton of actions that i have created, and they dont all work the same on every image. a lot depends on how they will turn out. the lighting condition plays a huge role. i once purchased DJ’s set to see and none of them work for me! Also they want to teach you things, and charge huge amounts of money and honestly i have to ask, are they that good to begin with? When i look at photogrpahers like Jay Maisel, Joe McNally and others, i see real photography, not photoshoped to death. I love what is said, photoshop should be a fix it program. you need to learn to get it right to begin with and then, use photoshop to enhance the picture. from what i read about Becker, he seems like a nice enough guy, but his actions are so expensive and anyone can make them for themsleves. http://www.photoshopuser.com has a ton of free tutorials on all of this. for technical and instructional advice http://www.kenrockwell is there. Gary Fong releases a new diffuser all the time. the PPA magazine this month dogs it and shows a much better one. His new diffuser is so huge i would be embarrased to use it in public. At a wedding we try to blend in, not gonna happpen with that thing. anyway, ofcourse this is all my opnion and not fact, i didnt say any of it to offend anyone, if i did i appologize.
