Wedding Photographers

Yes the code is useless from most points but it does tell the viewer that you care about your images and are protecting them. Photographers always talk about the print screen but forget about the special tool in most browsers, the “save” feature. If you see a web site with a page that you like, simply save the web page and every file will now be stored on your hard drive. One item that will be missing is if they have any special code or scripts and database information. Locking the door on your car is but a small hitch for a thief to violate your rights and break the window to remove a personal item. Nothing is protected in this world but small deterrent helps.

I had a treat last year covering an Indian wedding. Red was used throughout the event and was beautifully decorated. There are two of my favorite images, one of the bride attaching all of her decorative jewels and another of her maid of honor holding hands. The hands are filled with henna markings, which are very important and extremely interesting. I hope you enjoy them.

When an image is created in the camera body it is saved to your memory card for later retrieval. In the JPEG format, the image was processed and written into that file format, where as RAW format is an unprocessed proprietary image file from the camera. The camera body “processed the image” and must be very close to a perfect image. RAW format is great if you need to go back and correct anything major. If you under exposed the image or the camera was set to the wrong color balance you would have a way of changing the image.

Some cameras allow recording a RAW and a JPEG and the same time. You can use the JPEG to edit and if there are any exposure issue the RAW is present and able to get you out of a jam.
