Another Touching Wedding Story

As a Wedding Photographer in the Sacramento and Bay Area Professional Photojournalist I am always reading about wedding related news and stories and I thought that this was really touching.

A Love Too Strong to Keep Apart on the Independent Post

I hope you enjoy it!  I know the part about the wedding photography being supplied by the hospital really made me smile.  I cannot imagine any real, professional wedding photographer not jumping at the chance to do work like this free of charge.

If you have a really touching wedding photograph story (or need!) get in touch with me.  I'm a sucker for the romantic stuff.

Famous People's Wedding Photography

As a California Wedding Photographer, I spend a lot of time reading about and looking at wedding photography resources.  You have to keep up with new trends, track current trends and I, personally, learn a lot from looking at and meditating on other photographer's wedding galleries.  Inspiration and ideas for my own work.

Doing random Google searches wedding photography searches today on Google and found this link story about 'Fergie, Josh Duhamel Release New Intimate Wedding Photos' which, apparently, the couple sold to Elle and US magazine.  I would not normally post anything about this particular celebrity status-quo, but Fergie and Josh took a new direction and, just perhaps, have triggered another trend in capturing the wedding day.  Captured the day after the wedding on-location in the honeymoon suite, Josh and Fergie held various intimate poses (and held each other) while the photographer worked to capture the special emotion (lust?) of the moment.  Interesting concept, and not that different than Trash The Dress, in terms of schedule (after the wedding,) cost (one additional photoshoot) and style (very personal and spontanious.)

Like the current 'Trash The Dress' fad, these new Intimate wedding day photographs have made there appearance in big-name print journals like Elle and US, so it is only a matter of time before someone has a blog and e-zine about it.  Or may not, a lot of people thought Trash The Dress would come and go too, but it is clearly here to stay (especially out west and for destination weddings, I think that has to do with beaches being a great scene for it.)

Destination Weddings at a Ski Resort

As a Northern California Wedding Photographer servicing Sacramento and San Francisco I am always interested in new trends in wedding planning.

A recent increase in small destination weddings has made Destination Weddings at a Ski Resort increasingly popular.

California Wedding Photography on a Budget, 2009

As a San Francisco and Bay Area Wedding Photographer, I am always looking for good pages about weddings, wedding planning and the newest in wedding issues -- recession proof budgeting!

Today on TODAYOnline they posted a great story about Tying the Knot on a Tight Budget, worth reading. The stand-by lackluster ideas like less guests, commercial gowns and do-it-yourself-photography are there, but they have a few creative concepts to add as well.

Another resurgent concept is the all-outdoor wedding as a way to cut costs. My Sacramento California Wedding Photography studio is receiving increased numbers of requests for photography at all-outdoor weddings. Personally, I love them and I think that the people over at TheSpectrum do too, after reading this story about SkyHighLove, Southern Utah and Outdoor nuptuails.

Nikon Sensor Quality King!

Nikon's new SLR leads the pack for sensor quality

Scientific proof!

It's not a surprise that the Nikon D3X, the company's brand-new $8,000, 24.9-megapixel SLR, tops DxO Labs' sensor performance test. What is a surprise is the margin by which it leads its rivals from Canon and Sony.

When the French firm unveiled its DxOMark Sensor benchmark test last year, Nikon's D3 was the top scorer at 80.6, a composite number that represents various performance features. Very close on its heels were Nikon's D700 at 80.5, Canon's EOS-1Ds Mark III 80.3, and later Canon's 5D Mark II at 79 and Sony's Alpha A900 at 78.9.
