<p>I hate watermarks... if someone sees your photo, it's likely that they already know it's yours. I understand the purpose, but I'm against it</p>

I'd love your feedback- Website for Weddings Photography
aleks_biteman replied to joe_marshall4's topic in Website Creation
<p>Agree with William, you also have dual links, under the Weddings drop down, you have a link to your pricing, but you also have a pricing link on the main header menu.<br> Also, I found taking down pricing is the best way to keep people interested, that way they need to contact you, and get engaged and it immediately becomes a little more personal. I'd remove that.<br> And I emphasize on William with the about section...</p> -
Shot a Wedding Last Weekend...Thoughts?
aleks_biteman replied to bryce_sickich's topic in Wedding & Event
<p>Personally, at the reception, it seems your flashes are very direct and harsh, you may have been able to point those up, seeing that the ceiling is low enough. This would've spread the might more evenly and softened it quite a bit.</p> -

<p>ok cool :) thanks for the tip Wouter. Helpful as always!</p>
-
<p>Also... I typically shoot in all manual... recommended or not? shutter priority?</p>

<p>Awesome! Thanks for the tips :) </p>

<p>They look great Athena! Just wondering, any external flash? I'll be going in with 3 speedlites, 2x Canon 580ex II, and 1 Yonguo 560II... Just wondering if you used anything besides ambient light!</p>

My beautyfull HDR, write your comments
aleks_biteman replied to jean_marc_perfetti's topic in Website Creation
<p>I mean I guesssss. It is better than most HDR shots due to the fact that I think it's over done and there is some manipulation, it seems abstract to me more than anything in a way.</p> -
<p>Gotta say, with my first wedding coming up this weekend, this makes me much more confident! Any tips on someone who JUST got into it? What exactly would you do differently? I too am ignoring people saying I shouldn't do it for lack of experience... If not now, then when!? Hope your future career as a photographer goes well :)</p>

<p align="center">I figured I would post this here, because I suppose it fits. Let me know what you guys think? I'd love to see some thoughts on this. How you feel about, what emotions you feel when you're capturing images. The prompt was this:</p> <p align="center">"<em>Describe a place or environment where you are perfectly content. What do you do or experience there, and why is it meaningful to you?"</em></p> <p align="center">thanks guys!</p> <p align="center"> </p> <p align="center">Looking Through the Glass<br> The Milky Way bursting out from a monstrous mountain, fish netting flowing in a spool like a gentle ballerina, a couple preparing to tie the knot. This is the life behind a camera, a place where anyone can capture a moment in time, and appreciate it for what it truly is. Often times, I find that moments that should be appreciated are simply ignored, and abruptly discarded into the irrelevant memories of our past. The life behind a camera, where I can always go when I need rest, where I can always go when I need to ponder things in my life, or when I simply need to capture the world around me. Photography has taught me to live, it has taught me to experience the world around me and notice the little things that so often go ignored. I’ve learned to capture the most significant things in this world, often finding that they are no larger than an ant. I began photography on my own, in the summer of my sophomore year, I watched hour after hour of tutorials, soaking the information in, growing my passion and love for the art of photography. Realizing it wasn’t quite as complicated as one might think. The patience and perseverance that photography requires is amazing. Capturing the light that falls across the face of an individual, positioning yourself to frame the subject. Photography is an ever growing art, where the equipment stays the same, yet your techniques evolve and become so methodical, that you eat, sleep, and breathe the art itself. Framing every subject you see around you in your mind, paying attention to the abstract light in an otherwise bland room. I have begun to embody myself in something I will carry with me for the rest of my life. Photography will continue to teach me to capture, appreciate, and embody myself in the smallest things this world can offer, the most beautiful things this world can offer.</p>
