What if you could practice on a simulator before taking it to the gig?  Well look no further, cause just like airline pilots have flight simulations, you now have camera simulations. Practice in Shutter Priority and Aperture Priority. When you think your a pro, head on over to manual… and enjoy.

Challenge yourself… Can you keep the girl sharp but the twirly thing in motion? Can you do it maintaining proper exposure. This is what us pro’s do everyday!

 

Facebook Page is back!

Well it started just under a week ago, when I switched servers. Loyal followers may remember that my site took a long time to load. Combine that with an even longer time in facebook… Let’s just accept that it was a disaster! But on Sunday I changed servers, and started over. Thursday night I had the SSL installed so my facebook page can live again!. Now to update them both with information!!

Some key improvements are:

Changing webhosts-now BlueHost.   Their support thus far has been nothing short of amazing. I don’t know why I have waited so long to host with them.
Updating the lengthy facebook url  now only visit windsorsweddingphotographer.com/fb
Improved visibility between multiple domain names such as michaelelford.com,fatguyphotography.com,windsorsweddingphotographer.com,and lastly the-windsor-wedding-photographer.com

Help me out by spreading the word!
