Mike Hudson Photography: Since 1989...

http://mikehudsonphotography.blogspot.com/2011/09/my-anniversary.html

Thursday, September 1, 2011. 22 years as a professional photographer today. I still can't believe I'm able to do this and make a living. I've bought twelve new cameras since 1989, and twenty-four camera lenses, from SLR (35mm) lenses to Schneider-Kreuznach 4x5" lenses, as well as three enlarger lenses. Thirty-one filters, one 5x7" enlarger, six portable flash units, eight studio flash units, five remote wireless triggers, and seven Macintosh computers. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Friday, January 29, 2010. Got a call to shoot a college student, the vice president of the student government, for the college magazine.

Mike Hudson Photography: Lighting

http://mikehudsonphotography.blogspot.com/2010/03/lighting.html

Thursday, March 25, 2010. I was asked by a new commercial client today if it'll be necessary to set up lights for a shoot we're doing. I know the location will be bright enough to shoot without any additional lights, but I responded that we may use them anyway. Here's why. How will the light fall on my subject? Will they be backlit? How will I light up the background so it doesn't go dark? Will the available light complement my subject, or should I use supplemental lighting to define my subject? Wow, wha...

Tuesday, September 13, 2011. Photographing the Royal Wedding.

Mike Hudson Photography: October 2009

http://mikehudsonphotography.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html

Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Landscape Photography- Acadia National Park. Each autumn now, for the past three years, I've been traveling up to Maine to spend a week photographing Acadia National Park. This was my fourth trip, and I learned a lot about my equipment, how I approach photography, and myself. Landscape photography is better when you don't shoot everything at f16. F2.8 is far more creative and interesting, and f1.8 is even better. The pre-dawn light is a beautiful blue, twenty minutes before s...

Mike Hudson Photography: July 2009

http://mikehudsonphotography.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 7, 2009. My friend Scott recently posted on his Facebook page that he would be going on a trip somewhere with the family, and wondered what gear he should bring. Scott is what I would call a 'keen amateur' and has just bought a digital camera for the first time. I didn't plan on spending an hour replying to his post, but I get asked similar questions often. Here's what I wrote:. Do you have something, like a laptop, to backup your pics to each day? Make sure you have more than one memory ca...

Mike Hudson Photography: December 2008

http://mikehudsonphotography.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Friday, December 12, 2008. For a year, my stock photography was online at the website, Digital Railroad. For $550/ year, they hosted about 3-4000 of my images. Over the year, I sold only two pictures- the first sale didn't even cover my annual fee, the second was my biggest stock sale ever. Soon after paying my annual fee in September, DRR went bankrupt, taking my money with them. Here was my response to him:. Here're a couple links that explain it better than I can. That was on Monday; I haven't heard b...
