Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Eek Do you have a "Bridezilla" clause in your contract?
I love shooting weddings! I enjoy the whole creative opportunities it allows. This weekend the wife and I sat and watch several eps of Bridezilla on Bravo and we were just blown away! It actually angered me a few times at that shear nerve of these crazed brides! I'm seriously considering putting a Bridezilla clause in my wedding contract. I was wondering if any of you have a similar clause in your contracts as well. Have you run in to a bridezilla on any of your shoots? What would you do if you did?

I have yet to run into a 'zilla. Well there is my ex-wife but she didn't go all zilla till a few months later! Ha!!

I have seen that show a couple of times and it is amazing how some of these brides act. Why would anyone marry one of those wenches? If that isn't a sgn of what is to come I don't know what is. Maybe they have lots of money or some magical girl parts or something but it is amazing what they capture on that show!

I have nothing like that in my contract. I think a few pictures of the freakout would suffice in any any legal battles!

I've heard that the brides selected for that show are encouraged to be a little more dramatic.. I'd actually take it with a grain of salt.
