Canon 5d mark II awesomeness Tuesday, March 31, 2009

At first, I was skeptical about the 1080p video feature on the canon 5d mark II thinking what a waste of space it was on the body. Now that I’ve had a chance to experiment with it, it’s actually pretty nice and handy. It definitely opens the door new possibilities such as integrating video with picture slideshows. This past weekend, I was able to get some video of Hyon Smith teaching during a photography seminar.

Learning is Awesome Thursday, October 9, 2008

Hyon Smith Photography held a workshop and it was another great learning experience. Day 1 consisted of an engagement session out in Georgetown. Robert and Alison were our awesome models for the session. They did a great job putting smiles on their faces as we photographed them in different poses. Day 2 consisted of a guest speaker, Douglas Sonders, a celebrity photographer. He showed us the various lighting techniques he uses to photograph his subjects. The 2 days were great! Here are some pictures from the engagement session.
