The Winners of the Four NYIP Photography Courses Are . . .

Posted by on 24th, Mar, 2015 in Blog | 0 comments

By Angela Pritchard – Fourteen years ago, when my husband and I tied the knot, we could not afford to hire a wedding photographer. Instead, we bought a few of those one-time use cameras and had family members take photos. Needless to say, we didn’t get any really good, memorable photos. Over the years I have gone through countless wedding photos posted on the internet and so many of them are images that I would have loved to have had to remember my wedding by. In the last few years I have actually photographed several weddings for friends...

Tips for Using Golden Hour Light for Portraits

A Post By: Karthika Gupta Most photographers will argue vehemently that the golden hour – that pocket of time just after sunrise and just before sunset – produces some of the most gorgeous light ever. Golden light shows up during this time, generally about an hour or so before sunset (after sunrise). However these times are not exact because golden light does depend on where you live. The further away from the equator you are located, the longer golden hour lasts. The closer to the equator you are, the shorter it is. Golden hour is...

6 Steps to Edit and Deliver Wedding Photographs in One Day

A Post By: Phillip Van Nostrand This is exactly how I process every wedding that I photograph. I am now on my fifth year of shooting weddings and have shot roughly 70 of them. I am a big fan of working smart and not hard. Every step of my workflow is thought out, and belongs for very specific reasons. Most of the time I am finishing and delivering my wedding photos within four to five days. If it wasn’t for attention span and the internet, I should be able to finish wedding photographs in 24 hours every time. 1/100, f/5.0, ISO 2000,...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-CM1 added to studio test scene comparison

It’s not often that a smartphone being added to our studio test scene warrants a mention on our homepage, but it’s not everyday we see the likes of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-CM1. It’s a photo-centric mobile device with a 1-inch 20MP sensor and an F2.8 28mm equiv. lens, capable of 4K video and Raw image output. See how it performs in our studio scene. Spoiler alert: the CM1’s noise performance is on par with the highly-regarded Sony RX100 line of cameras, which isn’t a huge surprise given...

[UPDATED] Can we get much wider? Canon EF 11-24mm F4 L USM samples gallery posted

Posted by on 24th, Mar, 2015 in Blog | 0 comments

Incorrect. We have yet to see how the lens performs on a high res Canon body. Furthermore, the edge to edge performance is still pretty impressive even adapted on an a7R. Also, the shots on the rocky beach are a pretty stressful case for any lens – those rocks were ~1 ft or so away from the lens. I tried to find the hyperfocal distance as best I could to get everything in focus in a single shot, but undoubtedly the edge-to-edge performance of objects at infinity probably won’t be as good when you focus at the hyperfocal distance...

A light touch: Dean Bradshaw’s commercial and personal portraiture

Posted by on 24th, Mar, 2015 in Blog | 0 comments

I think that their is a distinction (at times subtle) between participating in a dialog of the structural characteristics of a relavent critical mass within a media at any given time and creating declarations which seem more interested in policing the boundaries of a media. The later becomes problematic given the apparent need for art, commercial or otherwise, to challenge boundary as part of its historical evolution. Photography, as a particular media, has had a long history of grappling with the notion of ‘truth’ or ‘the...

How to Turn an iPad and iPhone Into a Negative Film Viewing Station

How to Turn an iPad and iPhone Into a Negative Film Viewing Station

A few years ago, we wrote about how phones can be used as negative film strip viewers by simply inverting the screens. Swedish photographer Adam af Ekenstam took the idea a step further by using an iPad and iPhone together as a simple yet powerful negative viewing station. Af Ekenstam uses his iPhone with a blank white screen as a lightbox alternative for backlighting the strips. On his iPad, he sets the screen to inverted and grayscale using the options found in Settings→General→Accessibility. He can then place any negative film...

The Real Meanings of Common Photographic Words and Expressions

And yes, I’m as guilty as the next guy:fine art photography: Long exposure shots of ocean piers or railway platforms in black and white. Nearly always practiced by photographers seeking to distance themselves from ‘ordinary’ photographers by the simple process of shooting mind-bogglingly dull subjects. high key: Basically lone trees on snowy...

Nikon Now Selling a Stainless Steel Hot Shoe Cover That Gives Your DSLR Some Bling

Nikon has announced a new product called the Nikon ASC-01, a new stainless steel insert for your camera’s hot shoe mount. It slides right into the mount when it’s not in use, giving your camera a shinier and more “complete” look. Here’s what the cover looks like when used on a Nikon DSLR: In addition to aesthetics, the cover has other benefits as well.
