Aloha


Hawaii is so awesome! It's actually a lot like Santa Barbara with a lot of really nice kicked back (Hippie-like) people. I always feel at home when I'm here. Today Tim and I tried to find the North Shore but we got lost...I get lost everywhere but the important thing is that I always pretend like I know where I am and that I never ask for directions...any of you men with me! Yea! Go men! We're dumb. :)

Showit Web (beta) is here!

I've convinced one of my perfectionistic (word?) programmers that I don't care if the program is perfect I just WANT IT NOW!!!! Haha...I guess I'm kinda like my clients! Speed sells and the quicker we can show our clients the great job we did shooting their wedding the more they will love the result!

That's why we do onsite slideshows with Showit Effects

and now we can put those same slideshows up online in a matter of minutes with virtually no work on our part! Showit Web is incredible and you've gotta try out a beta version on ShowitFast.com. I guarantee you'll be blown away at how easy it is...and it's gonna get even easier once the final version is released.

PartyCon was AWESOME!


Well Pictage has outdone themselves AGAIN! I've been to every tradeshow this year (New Orleans, Vegas, San Diego) and PartnerCon outdid them all!

It was the most incredible experience ever and I was so stoked to be able to meet so many of you and put a face and personality to the name and picture! You're all the coolest and funnest people and I can't wait to get together again! I can't believe these get togethers aren't like monthly occurances! I would seriously come down to LA every month if we could get a big group together like that!

I had a blast and I can't wait to see more pics so post'em on the forum! I only had my camera out for one night so please do post everything up!

LS2PJ Rocks


This week has been such a rush with my birthday and then getting prepped for the PartnerCon next week, but I was amped to checkout my pics from last weekend and see the amazing pics that Gary Fong's LS2pj produced.

I admit...I wasn't a LightSphere fan AT ALL because of how big and bulky they were and the big white dome was just too much of an eye sore for me, but this new version works brilliantly and you can hardly tell it's on your flash.

Because I have a beta version for the 580 flash I had to stretch it a bit to get it to fit over my 550 and I actually jacked my nail in the process...I'll post up a pic soon...wow...did I just complain about breaking a nail! Anyway...I was kinda worried about taking it on and off but that's the best part - you don't have to! It folds up perfectly even while it's on your flash so you can pack your flash in your bag and have it ready to go at a moments notice in true PJ fashion. As you can tell it made for some beautiful, soft, and warm light. Everything I love for my pics!

Thanks Gary!
