Hey blog fans, would love some of your networking help here:)  This would be much easier for me during a slower time of the year but with all the shooting, I’m not getting out much to meet some new peeps.  For about a year now, I have been working off and on to add video fusion to my studio offerings… so far, clients have loved what I have done and I have so many great things coming up to show you as well.  I truly think capturing the emotion and story from a couple and their wedding day using any and all visual formats, is the future of all photography studios.  One thing I can say that I have learned, is that I love taking photos more than shooting video… and I would love to have a trusty, creative, fun, quality and strong cinematographer that would be interested in working with us at Moore Photography.

So… if you are reading this and might be interested yourself… or you know someone else, please get in touch with me:)  Tell me your story, experience, and anything else you might want to share.

What I want…

• someone creative
• someone with experience in DSLR video
• someone with equipment
• someone professional
• someone passionate
• someone fun
• someone available for weekends for weddings and weekday evenings for engagements
• someone willing to learn
• someone willing to teach
• someone who will pick me up some coffee on the way to the studio:)

What I don’t want…

• someone who is the opposite of everything above:)

So thats it… get in touch with me asap:)  Thanks again everyone and happy shooting!

Last week I travelled to Barrie, Ontario to hang out with Erika & Ryan from Rowell Photography… what an amazing couple! (and amazing photographers)  I have always admired their work for years and until this point we have only kept in touch over the internets.  We had always talked about meeting up but always had a reason to miss each other… why not in the middle of wedding season, LOL!

We hung out at their place for a few days and wow, are we ever similar:):)  We certainly love movies so one night, last minute, we headed out to se Super 8… what an amazing film!!!  Check it out:):) We talked photography, business, life and food (sorry about that guys… it is a cult isn’t it).  They even threw a BBQ and had a bunch of photogs come over from all around Ontario… what a great community of professionals:)

On the last day we had a portrait session in the studio… yikes!  Not my thing… I belong behind the camera, LOL!   Just kidding, we had fun and so did their adorable dog pepper.  Check him hanging out below and head over to their commercial blog to see more from the shoot… http://rowellphoto.com/commercial. Thanks so much you two for being so hospitable and having me over, till next time:)  Get over to www.rowellphoto.com to check out their amazing work… follow them on facebook too… http://www.facebook.com/Rowell.Photography,  thanks and enjoy!

I think it was Chase Jarvis that said “the best camera is the one in your hands”… I couldn’t agree more:)  Right now for me, the best camera is one that is small, easy to use, always on me and most importantly, one where the images are shared and organized immediately for easy future use.  Currently, that is my iphone:)  When others ask me what is the best camera to buy, I usually reply with the iphone.  I find myself using it on a daily basis, especially when travelling.  There was one day in Mexico where I lugged my canon around for the entire day and never used it once… but I took over 100 photos using my iphone.

For the iphone, or any smart phone… it’s all about the camera apps.  I have 8 to 10 on my phone that I use on a regular basis… all sorts for all sports:)  Currently my favorite is the very popular (and free) Instagram app.  I love the square photo look, it has countless options for picture styles, has a tilt n’ shift function and shares easily with your mac, facebook and twitter.  The smart thing about instagram is that it is a social network in itself… you can follow your fav’s and keep updated with what they are capturing.  If you want to follow me, look up “moorephotography” within your app.

Check out some pics below of the last Mexico adventure… we had so much fun with it that everyone else with iphones joined in for the rest of the week.  In this case, it provides even more amazing keepsakes for my clients and will make a sweet album:):)  Thanks and get shooting everyone!
