I Turned $900 Into $4500 |
 What
would you say if a wedding planner approached you with a
client who only wanted to spend $900 on their wedding
photography?
Shhh.. Don't say it out loud there might be children
present!
One enterprising DWFer went forward with the under-priced
consult anyway and the end result? You'll just have to read
the thread to find out.

Jasmin Star: Goddess or Satan? |
 Really
neither. But read the DWF Pro Business discussion about her
latest webcast, and you’ll see a strongly-worded,
sharply-divided, sometimes unruly discussion among hundreds of
pro photographers.
Jasmine’s a rockstar in wedding photography. Is that a
bad thing, or a good thing?

There Goes the Photography Gene Pool! |
 Are
we on the precipice? Are we staring down the barrel of a mass
extinction event? Is it really the end of wedding photography
as we know it? Read our article "Dilution of the
Photography Gene Pool" and share your thoughts on the "End
of Days"!Also on the DWF Blog this week: Say no to
side light, how to soft sell yourself, Lightroom 3.2 and
Australian photographer protest photographer permits.

Sandy Puc's Six Month Old Shootout |
 DWF
Pro Sandy Puc has a thrown down the gauntlet: She wants to
know, “How many ways can you photograph a 6 month old?
Think about it. A six month old can barely sit up, cannot
walk and is not mobile at all. Can you create an amazing,
absolutely breathtaking image of a 6 month old? Can it even be
done?” DWFers are posting their best pics of these difficult
to catch little darlings, or devils, depending on the day. And
share how they catch their tiny subjects without tearing their
hair out.

KISS: Bounce Flash |
 Take
away all your bells and whistles and any reasonable amount of
set up time, and you find out what kind of photographer you
really are.DWF Pro Steph Zettl posts some images
proving that knowing your on camera flash and a little about
angles can help you ‘survive any situation.’ As expected,
other DWFers join in with dozens of great examples of
controlling on camera flash and explain how they got the shot.

Two Takes on Pinup |
 When
it comes to Pinup, we’ll take two, please. Two totally
contrasting styles, points of view and amazing talents.
First, Roberto Alvarado’s latest subject can’t even pronounce
her own name, (she made it up) but who’s thinking about names
when it comes to a Alvarado pinup?
Then check out the Pinup Calendar Mike Long shot for his
model’s boyfriend who is about to ship off to Iraq. You even
get a peek at the Animoto he did for the sales presentation.
Great work from two great artists, if you’re thinking about
pinup, watch and learn from these amazing DWF Pinup Pros.
