1. The embedded photographer

When you plan a birthday party or another celebration with friends, you often think about taking pictures at the beginning. You let all your guests line up and take a nice picture. However, you get the more interesting pictures when they are taken during the actual celebration after everybody is relaxed and not anymore aware of the photographer. Please see some examples below.









2. Event Photography

Often a formal event photographer is needed. In many instances, flash is not permitted, which makes it hard to take pictures without profesional equipment. See below how we, for instance, set up an event shoot for a dance recital where no flash was allowed.

Event Setup


Canon D30 with a Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens tethered to a laptop for immediate review and quality control. This tele lens is used for the portraits/single dancer shots and is hold on a monopod. Canon EOS 300D mounted on a tripod with a Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM lens for the overview shots. Set on manual focus and shots are taken via cable release.

While we deliver all pictures to you on an electronic storage media of your choice, we can also post them to the Website for purchase (optional with password for your privacy). You can then send your friends the link to this album and they can get their favorite pictures themselves.
