p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · WEDDING- lots of images.


2nd shooting at Normandy Farms. Saw Danny Bostwick doing his thing...couldn't say hi because as I said, he was doing his thing...and then he was gone

Had fun. Saw some things. These are the things I saw.

Peace!

Nice 2nd shooting Me. You did a pretty good job. A few things I would've done differently but hey, you already know that.

Love shooting styles like this, telling stories from different interesting POVs. I really like the last shot with the cake eating. I like the grain but curious as to how the photo was originally shot? what ISO, looks wide open? what lens, 35?

Good 2nd shooting Miguel. I really enjoyed the set.

I love #13 but I wish that the dodging (I assume) is not too pronounced.. she kinda look like a hologram image, haha.

#19 is also very well done and one of my fave from the set, but it bugs me that its not perfectly centered.

#35 - a nice key light on the subject would have been awesome. Since that probably wasn't an option, I would burn/dodge the image a little to accentuate the subject.

What's up Miguel! Thanks for your feedback on my set. Love that Philly comradery. Your set is very very solid - especially since you were 2nd shooting. I'd be curious to see the primary shooter's work, because your coverage looks like a full set on its own.

I've seen a lot of your sets and overall I absolutely believe that you've defined your own unique style, which from my perspective (as a photographer) is defined by creativity, and also aggressive color/contrast in post.

I don't know if this is going to make sense, but I feel like a lot of your shots are focused on impressing photographers first and foremost. Though, obviously that may be based on the shots you selected for FM - or the fact that you were second shooting. Specificly I mean: 1, 5, 6, 30, 38.

Critiques from my perspective:
1) My eye immediately went to the little girl, which made me wonder why she was so out of focus. Obviously this is a dress shot, but I don't think the client will understand why the girl is so out of focus.

2) Nice

5) Compositionally I love this shot, and involving the TV face is genius, but I wish the subject in the center was doing something more meaningful. Really interesting though.

7) I can't help but think that his head should be turned to look out the window.

11) Her skin/hands look pretty dark. Otherwise nice detail shot.

19) As Farid said, one of my favorites, but bugs me that it's not centered. I would just do a non-traditional crop for the blog (i.e. only crop the right side).

30) Assuming this is the first kiss, you get a lot of props from me for taking a risk on the creative angle. One of the benefits of being a second shooter

32) Really nice cake shot

36) Awesome. Full of emotion and lighting is great.

38) Pretty cool that you framed them in bokeh like that

42) I like this one a lot, though I think it'd be even better if you burned the non-bride arms that were hit with flash around your bride. In general with these party/dancing shots you seem to favor the on-camera-flash-zoom + dragged shutter. Sometimes it produces some sick shots like your #42, but from a photographers perspective I always equate direct-on-camera-flash to be trouble (especially since you had an off-camera setup available). I think a lot of people like it though, so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt. Do you use this lighting for all of your late-night dance shots, or sparingly?

43) Perfect shot to end the set. How did you get a cake-shot without dozens of people standing closely and watching lol

Shots of substance like 26 and 28 really do it for me...well done! 28 is a great example where foreground out of focus stuff has purpose and context.

nextelbuddy -thanks for the thoughts man. I think I might have had the 50 1.2L...or the 35 1.4L I have to check. lol

Farwid- spot on bro. On 35 also I probably should've got rid of the arm too. lol.
Thanks for coming in bro!

Bartlett Pair- Thanks for the thoughts man. Yeah I think I've identified what I want to be and am trying very hard to get there this year. lol

I think you're almost spot on that yes, I am one of the photographers who wants/likes to impress...my self first then my clients/people in general. Not just photographers. Even though I'd like to impress them too. lol

But what I'm really trying to do is combine the 2 -like image # 38- because while you may notice the 'creative lighting' aspect you'll also notice the happiness between daughter and dad. Like #15 the first look, the expressions. Like #37 grandma holding her hand so tight. Sweet some with a little awesome mixed in . lol .

At least that's what I want to do. Now finding it all the time is what I'm working on

Thanks man

canerino- You know I love ya stuff, thanks for the eye!

Thanks also to the other 300 people who viewed and didn't say anything. I'm not mad at ya! lol

Miguel

Yeah I hear you Bartlett. I would like to do interesting PJ work throughout the day along with dramatic/wow/epic B&G portraits.

I want the best of both worlds!
