TUNTUN & UWEM E. TRADITIONAL WEDDING

Tuntun and Uwemedimo got married last Friday in an African traditional wedding ceremony. The wedding took place in Washington, DC which is about 30 minutes from our studio.

Tuntun and Uwem are one of the most beautiful, loving, caring and engaging couple I've ever met. Fews hours before the wedding ceremony, the groom called me to see how well I'm doing. I usually don't recieve phone calls from grooms. I'm glad I am part of their memorable day.

Below are pictures from the wedding. Enjoy and keep on living.....

BIG FLASH NEWS

BIG FLASH NEWS:::::: My future plan is changing my photography gear to Canon ;D This is after I read a reply comment by Gary Fong (His Canon 30D camera was stolen at the PDN Expo) Comment

I have a D2H and a D70 and those were the last Nikons I ever had. From what I remembered, the sensors were very nasty in dynamic range. They would color bloom and blow out highlights unlike any other camera. Fuji's had the best dynamic range, followed by Canon - but Canon had the awesome lenses. When the 5D came out, the first thing I remember thinking was, "wow - this is like - Fuji quality". So that's all I needed was great image quality and awesome lenses.Oh yes, and Canon started incorporating focus distance in the flash calculations. This was something Nikon offered in their 3D matrix metering for flash. in fact, when I shot Nikons - I almost had to have the flash on all the time or I'd be spending a ton of time correcting images.But I don't know about the new Nikons. I don't know about any improvements on them or any new developments, so it would be out of turn to speak about Nikons. All I know is that I stopped using them and I still have a D2H somewhere that has maybe 75 exposures on it. In fact, the D70 was actually a better camera than the D2H in image quality... but by then I was done with Nikon and lost any interest in going back.

This Week

Wow...the week is just getting better. We will be shooting a bridal "trash the dress" this weekend. Right about now the weather for this weekend is happy:) Concept was created by the well known Femster TV. I can't wait for the final product , make sure you check back next week.

Friday the 26 will be super great.... We will be shooting my friend's wedding. This couple are God's given and they are meant for each other. I can't wait to photograph their memorable day, and I am glad to be part of this day.

Finally , Abi and I decided to upload some of our memorable pictures from our wedding :D Our photographer, Doug, is super awesome.

This picture is called "Overlookbay" We were overlooking the Baltimore Inner Harbor.

I kinda noticed that we are hitting the 2000 visitors mark. I need to make this blog more interesting and exciting.

Trip Journal 1

Well this video speaks for itself. This video was shot in a backyard animal farm in Nigeria while I was visiting my father. Olu was shooting the video while I was "getting closer to nature". I don't think he had never been so close to goats before.



To the side are the "Agric" chickens and to our rear is the processed fish pond.

New Website

I would like to showcase our new website. This website is so great that I can easily update contents from any computer in the world as fas as it is connected to the world wide web.

It comes with a scheduler where clients can check out dates that are available and they can book online through the contact page. Pictures can be uploaded and updated on the fly. Current images can be showcased in our portfolio in time.

Also there is a link to my video section. We can now host our own videos and photo slideshow online.

I am soooooo excited.

Why I love soccer...

Why I love soccer...
Its a game were some rules are followed.
Its a game of chance.
Its a game of knowledge, not power.
Its a game of skills and not for cheaters.
Its a game of individuality.
Its a game of equality.
And its a game that brings in excitement as a player or spectator.
