…Five Dee Mark Three

Ok so…the Canon 5D mk3…where do we start… The 5D mk1 (which I own) caused quite a stir when it was first released as it was the worlds first digital SLR with a full frame sensor. Now to jargon bust quickly, what do I mean by a full frame sensor? […]

…Mark & Sarah

Now Mark & Sarah aren’t people of huge consequence who I expect you to know they are people of consequence who ‘I’ am expected to know…because they’re clients. I was contacted by them to photograph their wedding so I, of course, met with them to discuss their plans and do […]
