153 - Whats In My Bag part 5

March 18, 2016 07:30 - 15 minutes - 14.6 MB

Whats In My Bag part 5 First of all I need to apologize (I think) for the almost annoying excitement in my voice. I was just kicking but that day and getting way more work than usual done and I sound goofy from all the energy pumping through my veins. Part 5 of the What's In My Bag sequence was supposed to wrap up my zoom lenses until I just recently made a new purchase. We'll get there next week though. For now I wanted to go over my AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II, try saying ...

152 - Correct Aperture

March 16, 2016 07:30 - 15 minutes - 14.2 MB

Correct Aperture  Is there really such a thing as Correct Aperture? It all depends. When I first got the inspiration to make this an episode I was browsing through my news feed on facebook and I saw a post from a wedding photographer asking why her image still seems to be out of focus even though she made sure have a faster shutter speed and as low of an ISO as she could allow. Listen as I dissect the exposure and things to think about when it comes to Aperture. I wanted to take it a few st...

151 - The Customer is Always Wrong

March 14, 2016 07:30 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MB

The Customer is Always Wrong Photo World how many times have you heard "The Customer is Always Right"? As a customer of many goods and services, I can tell you I have not always been right or at least I wasn't treated like I was right. My guess is half the time I was probably wrong. Often we get stuck on the thought that we are right because we are stubborn or we just don't want to admit to being wrong. With that said, think about the other side. If you are right then the business or other ...

#HeyPhotoWorld - episode 150

March 11, 2016 08:30 - 30 minutes - 27.5 MB

#HeyPhotoWorld Photo World what’s a great quote or mantra you live by for your photography and business? Quotes: "It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste." Henry Ford "If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right." Henry Ford "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what y...

Lightroom or Photoshop - episode 149

March 09, 2016 08:30 - 19 minutes - 17.7 MB

Lightroom or Photoshop The 2 most popular photo editing software's and so many choices to make. First of all should you choose to use Lightroom, Photoshop, or both? I know photographers who only use Photoshop Elements or they are purest"s and do minor touch-ups with Picasa or none at all. Some days I feel like photo editing had ruined photography and other days I couldn't be happier that I had that there to assist my vision. Both Lightroom and Photoshop have more features than most of us ph...

Photo World I go through life day by day and I try to do my best in business, in my relationships with family and friends, and make the right decisions in Every situation I am in.

Whats In My Bag part 4 - episode 147

March 04, 2016 08:30 - 13 minutes - 12.3 MB

Whats In My Bag part 4 - episode 147 Photo World I would like to continue this week's "what's in my bag" segment with the wide end of the Nikon Holly Trinity of lenses. The AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm F2.8G ED lens is the finishing touch to the three part 14-24mm, 24-70mm, and 70-200mm f2.8 zoom lenses. There are no rules stating that every photographer must have these three lenses or even a zoom lens at all. In fact I know several photographers who are strictly prime lens (set focal length) photog...

Sensor Size - episode 146

March 02, 2016 08:30 - 20 minutes - 18.5 MB

Sensor Size There  are so many question that come up when it comes to sensor size and I could write on the subject for 10,000 words or more. It would be informative, overwhelming, and boring for the most part. Take a listen to this 20 minute episode on Sensor Sizes from FX and EF to DX and EF-S. Nikon and Canon DSLRs are the main subjects of my talk but at the very least you will be acquainted with the difference between larger and/or smaller sensors. Larger Sensor Smaller Sensor Higher ...

Kitchen Remodeling - Monday Message - episode 145

February 29, 2016 08:30 - 9 minutes - 8.35 MB

Kitchen Remodeling Why in the world would I ever need to mention Kitchen Remodeling on a photography and business podcast? Photo World if you have been listening for a while you know I find inspiration in the strangest of places; if you are new to Take & Talk Pics then you will soon see my mind doesn't operate on the same wavelengths as most people.

Whats In My Bag part 3 - episode 144

February 26, 2016 08:30 - 17 minutes - 16.2 MB

Whats In My Bag part 3 When I ask other photographers what is their go to lens and they bring up the divine 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom lens my heart sings in compliance. I LOVE this lens. Nikon, Canon, Olympus, Sony, Pentax, Sigma, Tamron, and Tokina (f4) all* make a 70-200mm f/2.8. Tokina makes an f4 version but still there are many options out there for the photographer looking for an amazing focal length to add to their arsenal. The Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II is my photo gear pr...

JPEG vs RAW - episode 143

February 24, 2016 08:30 - 24 minutes - 22.5 MB

JPEG vs RAW JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group) is the most common way of storing and transmitting photos. A JPEG is 1/8 the storage space of a RAW image counterpart – This was the best I could find in much research but in my own experience I find the JPEGs are 1/3 or ½ the disk space. Represented numbers – the average is found within an 8x8 pixel space, AVERAGE+3cos(x)-10sin(x) will give the numeric ingurgitation with the formula of only 3 values in lieu of the original 8x8 pixel aver...

Great Things - Monday Message - episode 142

February 22, 2016 08:30 - 10 minutes - 9.64 MB

“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.” Martin Luther King Jr. I created an entire episode based on this quote. I was (still am) inspired by the profoundness of these words and the obvious approach to taking on the unknown. I do need to correct myself though… This quote is from Dr. King; however, modified from Napoleon Hill’s quote: “If you cannot do great things, you can do small things in a great way.” Napoleon Hill is one of my favorite writers and I do want...

Whats In My Bag part 2 - episode 141

February 19, 2016 08:30 - 18 minutes - 16.7 MB

Whats In My Bag part 2 On this continuation on what's in my bag I talk about one lens that I seem to use more than the rest. It isn't my favorite lens that I own but it does see the majority of my subjects. I shoot on Full Frame or FX cameras most of the time and having the Nikon AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED lens with the wide 24mm to grab an entire room for an event or the 70mm to be a bit more reach than my own standard field of view so I can hang back but still catch more intimate moments duri...

Do It With Passion - episode 140

February 17, 2016 08:30 - 7 minutes - 6.72 MB

Do It With Passion My own journey as an educator and photographer has been a wonderful experience this far and I truly can’t wait for what is to come next. I do my best to be on the lookout for opportunity and inspiration and every once in a while something shows up and it seems to be from out of nowhere. Just like any good story, it starts out like any ordinary day. I was getting lunch and this particular lunch was the horrible choice of fast food. Not that Taco Bell is a horrible choice, ...

Pursuit of Happiness - Monday Message - episode 139

February 15, 2016 08:30 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MB

Pursuit of Happiness "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." - Declaration of Independence Yes, this familiar line comes from the Declaration of Independence, but those last three words are the main ones on my mind. I have battled happiness just like anyone else. Sometimes we become overwhelmed with our families, work, f...

Whats In My Bag part 1 - episode 138

February 12, 2016 08:30 - 13 minutes - 12.3 MB

Whats In My Bag part 1 I see videos from photographers I respect and follow as well as others without a large following and most of them love to put up a What's In My Bag video on YouTube. Frankly those videos do very little for me. It could be that knowing that does little for me personally, I don't have the time to watch a video like that, or just that I know more information on the gear that I find the video lacks learning for me individually. You know me Photo World I try to stay humbl...

New Photography Gear – episode 137

February 10, 2016 08:30 - 15 minutes - 14.6 MB

New Photography Gear As I get ready for a new semester of teaching I am preparing myself for the number one most asked question from newer photographers who want to be better image makers: “What piece of gear should I buy next?” I love this question… more so, I love seeing the reaction after hearing my answer. I am not sure where this idea of getting a new camera body equals being a better photographer. If that were the case I would pick up a medium format digital with 80 megapixels and b...

Practice Makes Perfect - Monday Message - episode 136

February 08, 2016 08:30 - 9 minutes - 9.13 MB

Practice Makes Perfect - Monday Message Photo World in today’s episode I speak on the topic of, “practice makes perfect”. We’ve all heard this and it seems simple enough. If you repeatedly work on the same style of selling to possible clients, over time you will find when you say certain things or talk about one aspect of the job, people perk up and lean in for more. On the flip side, you may find how you word something, clients shut down or lean away with disinterest. Understanding this an...
