My New Craze

I have always been fond of photography, ever since grade 10, but not being able to afford class camera rental costs prevented me in taking photography classes. So through out high school I had to stick to what I have and it is my trusty Sony Cybershot Camera. With it I learned basic compositions, rule of thirds and how to make a photo look interesting through photoshop.

Here are a few examples of my shots, uploaded in flickr




Not till last year Dec, 2007. After an extensive research about photography and how to use SLR cameras. I was ready to purchase my first SLR, a Nikon d40x. Purchasing and owning an SLR inspired me to do photography as a back-up gig. Specializing in wedding photography just as my cousin does it as well. Because of owning an SLR I have also gotten a job as an official photographer for different events and occasions, almost all of sudden. In the summer I will be shooting on a Church Anniversary, A Dedication, A Debut and A Wedding of a friend.

Through my research about wedding photPublish Postography and techniques that I can use to improve my shots. I came across a exceptional photographer who has a definite style and feel through out his work. He uses wireless trigger flash to get unique photos that not many photographers do. Which I believe differentiates him to many photographer in my opinion.

His name is Ed Pingol, He is a package design graduate that uses photography as his part time gig. He is a fellow Filipino who I look up to and admire his work, for its unique and dramatic quality and vibrancy of each of his shots.
