If you’re a member of Kelby Online Training, then you likely already know about this great class. If you’re not, then check it out.
David Ziser, world-renowned photographer is teaching a class on everything you need to know about shooting a live wedding.
Wedding Photographer David Ziser invited the Kelby Training cameras to follow for an entire wedding shoot. His day begins with some shots of the bride getting ready, then outside for group shots, then on to the ceremony and reception. David lets viewers see his equipment choices, shot selections, lighting techniques, camera positioning, and finally, he talks about the process of choosing which images to work with in post-processing.

Scott Kelby’s Worldwide Photowalk
Posted on: 6 June 2010
On Saturday, July 24, 2010, Scott Kelby is hoping to have as many photographers possible, from around the world, simultaneously engage in a photowalk. It’s the third annual WorldWide PhotoWalk. You can get the details on worldwidephotowalk.com. You can search for a city near you to join a group or if you don’t see a walk being hosted near your city, sign up to lead one. It’s free and there are great prizes involved. The best prize is, of course, spending a Saturday with other photographers doing what you love.

I finally got around to covering a question that I get asked so often from readers here on the blog, and that is:
“What is the difference between off camera flash (like a Nikon SB-800 or SB-900, or a Canon 580 EXII), and a Studio Strobe?“
If I have time, I sometimes answer people back with a direct email, but I’ve gotten this question so many times, I haven’t been able to answer them all. So, I thought I’d put together an example to show you my typical response to the question, which is purely my own opinion on the subject.
What I usually say is something along the lines of:
“Whether you use a small off-camera flash, or a studio strobe, what you get is a bright flash of white light aiming toward your subject.” [via Photoshop Insider]
Read the rest of the story here. You’ll also find that Scott has done the work of listing the pros and cons of each as well as provide a budget should you be so inclined to upgrade your lighting equipment. Thanks Scott.
Scott Kelby takes you behind the scenes and shows how he works to achieve such masterful headshots like the one below. Check it out.
As a follow-up to yesterday’s post (Scott Kelby showing readers how to create a “travel workflow”) here he suggests videos to watch if you’re considering making photo books.
I had so many requests last week to show how to create Photo Book layouts (like the one I did for my trip to Turkey, Greece, and Egypt), that I did three short videos for you (below), to show you how, but using different applications. The three videos are:
- How to create them in Apple’s iPhoto
- How to create them in Lighroom 2
- How to create them from scratch in Photoshop CS4 using Smart Objects [via Photoshop Insider]
Read the rest of the story and get the links to the videos.
