These pictures were all taken with a Sigma 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens, and it was funny... as I was at the park taking them, another photographer friend saw me using that lens, and my trusty Nikon D7000... and he commented that I was using the "plastic" set up... of course, he was using his Canon 5D...

I took this shot at the LAPD Academy's banquet hall... but come to think about it... it could be anywhere! :-) It was back-lit with a photogenic 1250 powerlight, set at about half power, which was about 300WS! shot at f/11, with a Nikon D2x, 28-70 f/2.8 lens, with ISO 400. I wanted the cake to...

I call this shot Lucky Shot... but I planned for it! :-) I knew the shot I wanted to do during the hora... I wanted to shoot it with a fisheye, in this case a Nikon 10.5mm on a Fuji S2 (anybody remember those?) mounted on a monopod, focus set to about 6-7 feet, at f/4, while firing the camera...

Jewish Temples are big into stained glass! and for a period of about 5-6 years... I did nothing but Bar and Bat Mitzvahs!!! and I loved shooting the kid's Temple Session, which is normally done during the week of the event, on a day that is NOT saturday! and I made it a point to use the stained...

This is one of my favorite shots of all time! it was taken a long time ago! with a Fuji S2, as a TIFF, with a Nikon 80-200 ISO 400, at f/4. The only way that I could compress this image so that both foreground (kid reading) and background (stained glass) were sharp, was to do it at 200mm, on a...

This wedding took place at the Los Angeles Garden and River Center. I just love this door! it was lit by a single Metz 45CT-4 placed behind the couple, and was shot tripod mounted with Nikon D2x, 28-70 f/2.8 at 1/2 second, f/11 with ISO 800

I love doing these type of images... and even though I have some clients that do not understand the concept of a silhouette, (mostly the older parents..."too bad we can't see the faces") the couples, for the most part like it! This image was taken at Castaway restaurant in Los Angeles area, a...

These are some of the ring shots that I do when covering weddings... these were done with a Nikon 60mm Micro, with a Nikon D3. I do not like to bring a tripod in to where the preparations are being held, because it gets in the way! specially if it is a small room! so I normally use a higher ISO...

These shots are some of my favorites! I had my assistant hold the light between the bars of the fence, it was a Metz 45ct-5 that had been rigged with a 7.2 volt battery from a R/C car... it looked like a bomb! :-) I raised the camera with a monopod, and fired it with a pocket wizard. Nikon D3...

I did this shot while doing a wedding in the city of Tototlan, Jalisco, Mexico. It was HOT!!! but I loved every moment of it! This was done as the bride was going to the car that was waiting for her to take her to the church... I saw this mirror, and the light that was hitting her was coming...

I have known this couple for years! But they DID NOT hire me for their wedding! As it so happens, her sister went and hired another studio to cover the event... and as luck would have it, THAT photographer was busy, so he hired ME to photograph it! They admitted that they wanted me, but since...

Hello! I just wanted to say hi! I have been a Sony shooter since last february. I have been a photographer for the last 27 years, and most of those years, I was a Nikon shooter. I was at WPPI2007 in Las Vegas, and I was the lucky winner of a Sony A7R2, and a Sony 85mm f/1.4 G-Master lens. As...

Yes... I know it is a wedding forum! But there is no Bar/Bat Mitzvah one! These were shot last saturday, Sony A6300 and A7R2. My main light was a Cheetah 360, bounced off a profoto white umbrella. The first one, was shot with existing light, with a 50mm f/1.8 lens (love that cheap lens!!!)...

These pix were shot with both Sony A7R2 and A6300... I don't like to shoot with too much flash, and when I do, I like to place the flash either on the side, or behind the couple.

This is my first post to this forum!
