I just wanted to say “Thanks!” to everyone that stopped by my booth at the Bridal World expo at the Dow Event Center yesterday. It was a busy day of setting up, meeting and talking with brides-to-be, and tearing down. It was my second show and I was much more prepared to convey my vision of wedding photography. I received a lot of positive feedback and interest for which I am grateful.
Also I’d like to add a special thanks to the following people/companies for making this such a success: My wife, My family, Kristen Forester (my designer), The Print Shop of Saginaw, and SignImage,

This is really more for other camera geeks than clients, but what the heck, if you’re interested then read on. I recently acquired a Canon 24-105mm/4 L IS. I’m hoping this will prove to be a dang near miracle lens. Sometimes I have back problems and I -really- wanted to trim down what I carry around while shooting a wedding. Presently it’s a Canon 20-35mm/2.8 L, Zenitar 16mm/3.5, Canon FL 55mm/1.2, Tamron 28-75mm/2.8, and a Canon 80-200mm/4-5.6. I used to carry the Tokina AT-X 80-200mm/2.8 but that thing is a heavy beast! Usually I spend most of my time switching back and forth from the 20-35 and the 28-75. My hope is that the 24-105mm/4 L IS is wide enough to not need the 20-35, obviously it covers the 28-75 completely, and I’m hoping it’s tele enough to leave the 80-200 in the car as well. It’d be an added bonus if the IS was soooo awesome that I could even leave the tripod in the car during no-flash ceremonies. I might have to get a little closer than I do now. As it is I’m often shooting something like 1/40th, F5.0, iso1600 so it should be very doable. Well, without further interruption, here she is:
