Nikon D3 great in low light!

29/6/2008
Well, buying the Nikon D3 is proving to have been a wise decision. Friday I had to photograph a new flight simulator in Hampshire. The only available light was from the video screens. Using flash simply blanked the video screens out. Once again the I set the D3 at 6400 and got a great set of usuable images. I edited the shots and uploaded them to the client area that night. Result, one happy client!

Well I got the new Nikon D3!

24/6/2008
I decided to take the plunge and buy the new Nikon D3. And just in the nick of time! The very next day after I received the D3 I was photographing a corporate AGM. The meeting was in a dimly lit conference hall which would have been well beyond the abilities of the D2x. However, at 6400 ISO the D3 managed the job just fine! What a result.

Should I get the Nikon D3X

14/5/2008
Ok, at the moment I have a Nikon D2x which is a great workhorse. The latest Nikon pro model is now the D3x. Recently released the D3x is supposed to be a photographers dream. However, it has a sensor resolution that is in theory, the same as the D2x. Albeit a full frame sensor rather than a DX sized sensor. So, the question is, how much better (if at all) will be the photographs I get from the D3x as opposed to my current D2x? In the good old days I would buy a camera body with the expectation that it would be taking profitable photographs for decades to come. Not any more... I will have to ponder on this matter for a while. Oh, the march of technology!

BT regions shoot

4/4/2008
Just completed a two shoot for British Telecom. One day in Andover the other on the Isle of Wight Ferry. The new 2m by 3m softbox I recently aquired proved ideal! In Andover I had to photograph people in a local community centre. The dull interior lighting wasnt very inspiring, so I opened up the huge collapsible softbox and set up studio in situ. The client was impressed and delighted by the results. This sort of setup is ideal for photographs that require a white background for later cutout.I then travelled down to Southampton to photograph a model with the IofW ferry appearing in the background. The 80-400 gyro Nikon lens I used made the ferry appear as if it were about to run us down. Again the client was pleased with the results and we all got a quick trip on the water.

Park Inn Hotels

16/8/2007
I've spent the last few days travelling around the country photographing Park Inn's for their parent company in Denmark. I've even got to stay at a couple of the hotels...

In truth, photographing hotels is not very glamarous. A lot of the time the rooms all look the same and you have to wait a long time to get the light just right for the exterior shots.

The thing that really got me was how Bedford looked like Telford which looked like Telford! An unfortunate consequence of globalisation is that everywhere looks like everywhere else...

As ever, my trusty Nikon D2X performed flawlessly. Whilst the client was delighted by being able to donwload their images from my online client area. Once again, photographs I shots here in the UK have winged their way around the world, thanks to the Internet.

Vitacress Corporate Shoot

12/8/2006
My favourite kind of shoot! Out in the countryside.... Vitacress (who make watercress. Surprise, surprise...), wanted a series of images to represent how environmentally friendly they are (which they are by the way...).

So, I was duly dispatched to photograph a couple of their Hampshire farms. The trick with this type of shoot is to watch the weather carefully. I shot one location in the misty morning; and the other late afternoon. Again, this is to miss the dead period around midday, when the sun is too high in the sky. Much better, to wait until the shadows have lengthend.

I find myself using a telepho lens on this type of shoot, more and more. I guess it's because a telephoto lens compresses distances, it's ideal to generate 'lifestyle' images. As opposed to straight documentary images.

More shoots like this please!

World Cup Marriage

1/7/2006
Hottest day of the year. All day wedding shoot in a hotel. Guests all hit the bar from mid morning. By mid afternoon the bride, groom and guests all getting a bit worse for wear. ..

Of course, everyone has one eye on the wedding and another on any TV, Radio etc then can get to...Then England gets thrown out the World Cup!

Result... sore heads and a bit of inter family friction...

Still, the photos were great! Taking wedding photos in strong blazing sunshine brings it's own problems. It's very important to find some shade to photograph the bride and groom under. You can try shooting against the sun using fill in flash, but with the sun directly overhead in mid summer, the results can be very garish. Better to find a bit of shade to create softer lighting...

Location, location, location

29/6/2006
Just got back from two weeks holiday with the wife and kids. Other than being worn out by the family, the main result for the last couple of weeks is a new batch of location shots for the photo library.

Being Franco-Philes, we went to Pen Be on the West Coast of France. I just love the qaulity of the light there! I took my Nikon D70 rather than the D2X. When away, I prefer not to make it obvious that Im a professional photographer. Hnece using the smaller camera body.

The results are stunning regardless of the fact that my D70 is showing its age a but (a relative term in the new world of Digital Photography). I have a beady eye on the newer D200...

If I could feed the family on any money I made on just location photography, I would... I just love getting out and about with the camera. Sometimes the realities of being a jobbing photographer get in the way of unbridled creativity.

Motorway madness

11/05/2006
Walsall, Birmingham. Sorry, but it's not my favourite place in the world...

Today's photo shoot was a corporate event at a hotel in Walsall. Which meant a long drive on the motorway to a hotel with very little character.

On days like this it can be difficult to think creatively. It's hard to derive photographic inspiration from a motorway hotel. Happily, there was an outside bar with some cafe-style tables, which allowed me to take some relaxed outdoors portraits.

Again the Nikon D2x with my giro stabilised Nikon 80-400mm lens saved the day. I was also extremely glad to have air-conditioning in the car as it was 30 in the shade! The usual traffic james on the M42 and A34 on the way home... joy...
