The short answer to the question, "should you hire a wedding coordinator?", is most definitely yes. However, not all coordinators are equal and just as you have "weekend photographers" the wedding industry is loaded with inexperienced, self proclaimed coordinators.  Over the past 20 years we have had the opportunity to work with many wedding coordinators and we can honestly say that if you hire an experienced professional coordinator you will be glad that you did. Weddings are expensive, we all know this, but for most couples it is a once in a lifetime event, so we urge all of you engaged

The Inspiration of a Photograph lll   This past January I was booked on an assignment that ran into the late hours of night.  After shooting images all day and night I was ready to just sink into my couch and sip on a glass of well deserved scotch.  I drove by countless subdivisions of homes covered in ice, not really giving much attention to the spectacle that nature had created.  Just then, as I pulled into my own driveway, I paused for a moment  and looking through my window I was captivated by the frozen scene I had chose to ignore

The Inspiration of a Photograph ll   Window light is the greatest gift that nature gave to us photographers.  You can find it almost anywhere you’re assigned to work in one form or another.  Knowing how to use is something different altogether.  Looking at our photograph here, you could accuse us of staging this image with a hired model and a borrowed dress, and you’d be wrong.  We had the usual 5 or 10 min’s to create and capture what our client saw when they booked this venue.  Working with Julia was terrific; she understood our direction and really enjoyed the whole

This is not an easy task on

Nikon Equipment Makes a Difference   A good professional photographer will tell you that it’s not the camera that created a terrific image but the photographer who knows just how and when to use it.  In the film days we all referred to a camera as nothing more than a box.  If we gave praise to our equipment, then it was our arsenal of lenses that received the spotlight.  As important as our knowledge and use of creative lighting is (see my previous article on photographic light) our selection of  photographic lenses play a tremendous role in the outcome of an image.
