Equipment is key

As I become a better photographer and explore more avenues within my photography and push the boundaries of my ability, I realise more and more the vale of good equipment. I have recently upgraded the body I shoot with to the latest beast from Canon in the 5D Mark II but now I’m finding the 24-105mm L lens not sufficient for portraiture and at wide angle has quite severe barrel distortion which gives me me a tough time in post processing. Thus having read the reviews on 70-200mm IS L lens from Canon I have been convinced that this would be the solution for quality portraiture. Will continue to correct in post production for the wide angle shots for a while until budget enables the purchase of the 16-35mm ( or I may go 24mm prime at that stage). Will just see where the photography road leads!

  1. Good morning,

    I have been perusing your website.

    Please may I have a quote for the following shoots that I am enquiring about:

    1) Family shoot
    I am currently living in the UK, but will be in Durban for the week of 11th – 17th September 2009. I would like to arrange a shoot for my family. I was thinking of a studio shoot in which case, how much do you charge for the shoot or per photo please? There will be 6 of us in the shoot.
    Alternatively I may want the photoshoot on the beach 15 mins drive north of Ballito. Would you be willing to drive out and to take the shoot there? I would anticipate that the shoot would be an hour. How much would you charge for the shoot or per photo please?

    2) Wedding
    I am a bridesmaid for a friend of mine who is getting married next year either in Ballito or the Midlands. Date to be confirmed. Please can you provide me with a quote for her wedding. Could you quote individually for the ceremony and before photos; and then for the reception inclusive.

    Do I get copyright of the photos and how long do you take to process these please?

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks,
    Lissa
