My Favorite Year: A Sony shooter’s inspiring 365 day project

Posted by on 30th, Dec, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

Hi BartyLobethal, You would be surprised how much inspiration can one get from others.

In short, doing it for real will change the circumstances it will be different – you just need to do a leap of faith. And if that doesn’t do it, then there is always a peer-pressure because you have...

So I’d like to share mine with all of you. I work really hard to impress each artist I work for with my workflow and turnaround every day on the road. Editing on tour can be really difficult because you don’t always have power for your laptop, no Internet...

Japanese Travel Agency Offers a Solo Wedding Photo Shoot That Singles Can Experience

Want to have your own wedding photos without having an actual wedding? Apparently some people do. A Japanese travel agency called Cerca Travel has started offering a strange package this past year called the “Kyoto Solo Wedding.” It’s a two-day experience centered on a fake wedding shoot that’s designed to pamper women and boost their self esteem. Customers each pay between ¥250,000 to ¥470,000 (~$2,075 to $3,900), which buys them 1 night at a hotel, a dress consultation, either a dress or a kimono to wear during the shoot...

If anything, he was more smitten by the Touit’s. And it’s proof that the equipment doesn’t matter in the end – give Toni the equivalent...
