Our Equipment
We currently shoot with a wide range of cameras. We have two digital SLR cameras that accept interchangeable lenses and these are our primary cameras for shooting our weddings, portraits and most of our landscapes.
Our newest camera is the Sony Alpha series camera called the A7RIV. It has a 61mp sensor with video shooting capabilities. This sensor is amazing and will allow us to make larger enlargements for our customers.
"For professional wedding photographers, landscape shooters and studio portraitists, the Sony a7R IV is, frankly, the camera to beat right now." - dpreview.com
Our second camera is a full size Nikon D500 with a 21 megapixel sensor with video shooting capabilities.
"The D500 is the most well-rounded DSLR we've ever tested, and among the very best." - dpreview.com
Our Large Format Camera is given to me by my father as a gift with the condition that I NEVER sell it.
It uses film that is 4" by 5". I have mostly used Fuji Velvia in this camera along with some black and white film. I enjoy using this camera because it makes me slow down and think about what I am doing. You make every shot count and because of it's set up when you look through the camera everything is upside down and backwards. I have to use a dark cloth to see in the daylight and I have to load my film in a black bag.
It is a lot of fun and takes me back to the old days of having to think about everything I do, calculate exposure and try and figure out that upside down and backwards thing.
For underwater photos we have Olympus mirrorless cameras and housings and use Light and Motion Video Lights and Inon strobes for underwater lighting.
All of these cameras use interchangeable lenses. We currently have a range from 16mm (ultra wide angle) to 600mm (super telephoto) and everything in between. This gives us the ability to take pictures of everything from large groups at a wedding to Grizzly bears (at a safe distance!).
We have an entire host of accessories for our cameras including high quality flashes, tripods and filters etc.
We are able to make excellent quality enlargements to 40" x 60" and beyond. The quality and tonal range is excellent! Being able to shoot at 11 frames per second is great for shooting sports photography when the action is moving fast and it is also great to capture a bouquet in mid-air during the bouquet toss or the single guys dodging the garter belt.
