Totally! the thing is.. this is actually one of my client's (not photography related) friend's website. So, I'm asking her to see if she can introduce me to LyLy and hopefully get some pointers from there. I'm trying to create my portfolio.. but a lot of times, I don't think the photos are that great to go into my portfolio. Also my website is not even up yet. haha.. i'm so lagging behind!

good lighting a great lens and perfect exposure im guessing.. i once saw a test shot from a member here... he took it at work with his brand new 24-70 L.. it was of a co worker and this shot was one of the crispest, clearest sharpest shots I have ever seen... the colors and contrast was spot on perfect.. i have yet to see another!

zacker... stop making me drool on the thought of getting the L lens. i'm still trying to save up for my 70-200L f2.8 IS. *sniff* *sniff*

I'm saying probably with a camera...

sorry I'm in a smartass mood =) hehehe.

Yeah... and LyLy must have a good camera. It takes good pictures!

Seriously: Practice, Practice and Master your equipment. I would guess that many aspiring "pros" don't know what settings to use and when to use them half or more of the time.

From these shots, the photographer decided what DOF was required to achieve the wanted effect. Exposure was then spot on and PP added the finishing touch. As simple as that. Don't guess, take control!

Good exposures, and jacking up the saturation and contrast in post production. B&Ws done with natural or off camera light, B&W conversion with a good method, and contrast bumped in post.

As an aside, I don't like the way you have to look at gallery photos sequentially on that persons site. Say I want to jump forward to look at ceremony photos, or see a good range of photos from one wedding, you can't.

Oh yeah, and don't forget the light! After all, it's what your camera captures... Find natural sources of light or exploit artificial sources to create the atmosphere you want. It makes all the difference in the world.

at anyrate she is good!

The exposures, colors, and compositions are great, but I got kind of bored because it was pretty slow and she needs to mix up the images instead of putting them in chronological order. I stopped looking during the getting ready pics.

I can teach you daniel-son, but first you must wax my car... wax on... wax off....
Hopefully somebody got that one. There are some very nice shots in there. I feel the real key to great photos is to pay attention to the basics: exposure, aperature, focus and composition. If you have a technically great photo, it is easier to make it pop in post processing

hardcore unsharp masking.

I see a lot of Kubota actions there... (not that there's anything wrong with that ) coupled with a GREAT eye!
