As a photographer, it is always good to constantly practice our craft and fine tune our skills. We are lucky that we have a beautiful model living with us. Yes, she is only five, but she is readily available, if not always thrilled to model for us. But promises of McDonalds or a new toy will often turn a reluctant model into a happy and willing subject!! This recent photo session had the added benefit of us trying out our newest lens. We like to buy new equipment, when we feel it will improve our pictures. We recently purchased a new Canon lens. It is the wonderful Canon 100mm f 2.8 macro lens. It is an incredibly sharp lens that we are now using to augment our portrait and wedding photography. Another benefit, that you will see in our upcoming weddings, is that this is a true macro lens. As such, we will be able to photograph small object, wedding rings in particular, with amazing detail and clarity. As a Tampa wedding photographer, we are super excited by being able to add this new tool to the other lenses we already have at our disposal. We have already been testing those macro capabilities with flowers, small rings, coins and other small objects. It is amazing how much detail this lens captures and you won’t ever look at small things in the same way again after shooting in macro mode!
The images below showcase some of our recent work with our new lens. Again, we love the sharpness of the images that this lens produces. In the coming weeks we will try to publish some macro images that will showcase the amazing ability of this lens to capture the smallest details of even the smallest objects. As a Tampa family portrait photographer, we are always pushing ourselves to always deliver new and creative images, using the latest tools and technology at our disposal. We hope that you enjoy the images that we post and always look forward to showing off our latest image creations!
