My name is James Eakin and I live in Shreveport, Louisiana. This is my first post on Digital Grin. I have enjoyed the "People" section on DG for about a year now (lots of talented photographers). My interest in photography started three years ago and includes shooting, PJ, Landscapes, and studio portraits. I have always liked technical hobbies like Ham Radio, I guess that is another reason I love photography. I have learned a lot visiting DG and DPreview. Keep posting and commenting. Thank you.

Please feel free to view the images on my web site. http://www.eakinphotography.smugmug.com/ and leave a comment there and here on DG.

James,

Welcome to dgrin!!

I like the looks of your studio lighting also.

I would swear that the studio strobes I see are Flashpoints, from Adorama's wedding kit. Is that correct? I have a pair of those strobes and find them very satisfactory.

Again, welcome to dgrin

Andy, I read how to post photos on DG. I will post some in the future. Thanks for your comments on my studio and portraits. I have seen the images on your web site and some you posted here-Outstanding!

Pathfinder, Yes the lights are Flashpoint 1820s. The lights are great, I wish I had the knowledge to operate them better - I am still learning. I use
Canon DSLRs new 5D and old 10D. Thanks for asking about the studio.

Hi James

Grab this link instead, and you'll be able to post the pics inline.

Here is the difference in the links:
