Fuji x100 review and tutorial Part 1

It seems like everyone has reviewed this little gem already. It is a fantastic camera. I am not going to repeat the existing reviews if I can help it. I instead want to show you why it is such a good camera. This will be a multi part review with examples from my recent trip to Spain where I used the camera extensively and beside my friend’s Nikon D5000.

How to keep a customer for life

This is Scott and his child. While I was at university, Scott once came out and played music at Finnegan’s wake with me. He was a fantastic musician and played circles around me, but didn’t try to make me feel bad about it like some can do. Scott was killed on his bicycle riding home from school to see his wife and newborn in August of 2008. I took this picture in May.

Portrait help – but what do I know? I can’t even get this picture to fit on my blog.

A friend asked me for tips on how to make her portrait photography better. I am learning just like she is, but I thought I would pass on some tips I have learned along the way. Above is an example of a great shot. You did everything right here, and it is a good example of how what I will write below can come together to make a good portrait. Your color is good, your composition is pretty good, you are at a flattering distance from your subject, the sun is behind her, and you used fill flash. Good job. It looks like you tried different things until you got here. I want you to take consistently great portraits without happening upon one. So let’s start with the basics.

Tina – Why does Green Lantern hang out with Green Arrow?

TweetTina was a lot of fun.  She showed up wearing a vest covered in comic book characters.  We waited for the makeup artist who was running a little late, so we talked about comic books.  She is well versed on Marvel and DC.  I tested her.  Why were there no comic book girl that looked [...]

Maren

TweetWe had a great time on our shoot with Maren. Maren has a great look and this is our second time shooting with her. This is a good example of a location shoot that went into the night. The sky gets to be a beautiful blue if you underexpose it right. Tweet

Danielle – location scouting

TweetHere are some pictures of a model we met in San Francisco. She told me she wanted to be a demon coming out of the woods. I think she did a great job. She goes by the name of Necro Wolfie. We were a little worried because we don’t know our way around San Fran, [...]

More San Fran pictures

TweetErin and I took more pictures in San Fran that I would like to share. You can see the fine arts palace in the distance to her left.   My wife is pretty. Here we got two very different looks, just by setting the ambient level differently. The flash is the same in both pictures. [...]

Halloween

TweetFun Halloween this year, even though I have had a terrible cold all weekend. First to Chandra’s house in Charlotte, NC on Friday. We always take a group picture outside Chandra’s house. This is the only party I have made every year. Something always comes up for every other party. Erin and I got stuck [...]
