Top 11 Web 2.0 Social Networks to Promote Your Photography Website

  1. Facebook.com - Utilize the groups functions. Build a network of friends and keep your profile page updated with interesting things to with either a RSS feed or something content related. Photos are the best way to grab someones interest. They pop up in the minifeed. Utilize the minifeed!
  2. Flickr.com - Use the Flickr tags to put yourself out there for people who are searching.
  3. Technorati.com - If you own a blog this might be a big boost to you. Usually if you find an area to blog about that no one else has blogged about you can get a free backlink to Technorati.
  4. Livejournal.com - Livejournal is an old but very helpful website in terms of traffic for me as a photographer. Just add yourself to a community and add photos as well as a link back to you. You can find communities in all different kinds
  5. Forums - Join some forums around the internet. Make sure you contribute to the forums and communities by provide commenting love or provide the community members with interesting content.
  6. Smugmug.com - Smugmug is awesome. It provides top notch searchability. I have no idea how but it somehow works. Just make sure you embed keywords to your photos. Make sure your keywords are relevant.
  7. Stumbleupon.com - Stumble upon is useful because it provides everyone with a level playing field to find your website. Anyone can just hit the stumbleupon.com button to come to your website. The problem is the traffic isn’t very targeted.
  8. Digg.com - Behemoth Digg.com is also very useful; but its very hard to get yourself on the front page. But if you do get on the front page get ready for the digg effect
  9. Cocomment.com - This is a rather new system but I think it has a lot of merit. There is a pretty big community and when you tag posts you can organize them together. They’ve also now have plugins for your blog as well.
  10. Sphinn.com - This one is a digg type system and is gaining popularity. Its another digg clone powered by pligg.com
  11. Photographyvoter.com- this one is just starting to build some steam around the blogosphere. It does need a lot of help. You might not get that many hits but you’ll get very targeted users that actually are geniunely interested in your website

I’m missing other websites huh? I’ve only excluded others primarily because I haven’t discovered them. Please feel free to leave some suggest some websites that I may have not mentioned.

DQ Studios of Calgary at Modern Photoglyph’s of Troy, Michigan

This Friday, September 28th, 2007, there is an event you must attend if you’re a photographer.

Dave and Quinn of DQ Studios of Calgary in Detroit. They’re going to be at Harold Jankowiak’s, of Modern Photoglyphs, place presenting their Quickeys product. If you’re not familiar with Quickeys it is a product used by DQ studios that speeds up the workflow by automating tasks to a number of keys alongside of using a wacom tablet. I’m not sure how Dave and Quinn of DQ studios actually engineered it. I’m thinking it is just a bunch of macros that fire off and trigger actions. Then they just use their wacom tablet to mask out certain areas.

I’ve seen a demonstration in Las Vegas when Dave and Quinn spoke about it. It seems like there is quite a bit of a learning curve to it; as well as it might not work for everyone. Again, Harold of Modern Photoglyphs will be hosting this event at his house in Troy. I’ll be attending. Hopefully there will be lots of other Detroit Photographers that will be participating as well!

Contact me if you’re interested. I can provide you with the information needed.

Canadian and American Equality?

As a Detroit-er, we’ve had the privilege of living right next to the open Canadian border. My mother would take us weekly on Saturdays Windsor, Ontario with her friends and sometimes relatives to enjoy getting fresh vegetables and cooking supplies needed. We would always start the day by getting Dim Sum at Wah-court and then visiting pastry shops which would bake the freshest tasty chinese pastries. That would be usually my favorite part of our ritualistic weekly adventure across the border.  Waiting at the pastrie shop counter and pointing to my favorite sweet pastries. She primarily did this because of the advantage that Detroit-ers had: the American Dollar vs. the Canadian Dollar.

Unfortunely, as of recent the US dollar as fallen to a point where the Canadian Dollar are almost the same. This is startling because its always been an fact in my life that the American Dollar was strong and worth something. Hopefully, something good will come out of this for Detroit-ers and more Canadians may travel over to Detroit and buy our goods.

See it for yourself at Reuters.

10 Tips for Capturing Night Photography with Long Exposures

night photography tips

Night Photography is one of my favorite things to do besides [tag]wedding[/tag] photography. Every once in a while one needs a departure from doing the same type of photography.  It’s taught me a plethora about how to see light. In a way with night photography, the outdoors is your studio.

Copyright Chris J. Lee 2007

Titled, “Plastic Knife Fight.” Copyright Chris J. Lee 2007.

So I thought I’d share some tips.

  1. Be Careful - Make sure you bring a friend with you. Your safety is very important.  It’s dark, you’re carrying expensive equipment and it’d be easy to just get your things stolen.  Also, never leave your camera unattended. If you can try to have a car around for your get-away. So you could run like a ninja. Hey, I’m a wuss I get scared easily. If you run into cops it might be useful to bring your business card too & always have a cell phone on you.
  2. Bring a flashlight - When you’re doing night photography you can always add light to the scene. This can be helpful if the foreground is really dark. If its cold make sure you bring several flashlights. I’ll explain at number 9.
  3. Keep warm - Usually it’s colder at night. Make sure you have some way of keeping warm. It’s not an issue in the summer but in the winter I’ve faced some harsh conditions. I’d definately suggest getting gloves. If you do get gloves make sure you’re able to push buttons with your gloves on.
  4. Check the scene first - Shoot at 3200 ISO and a faster shutter speed before deciding to commit to a 10-20 minute exposure. This way you can check the frame.
  5. Use a Tripod - If you’re going to use a long exposure make sure you have a secure tripod. It might even help to gaffer tape it up. I love my Bogen Manfrotto Tripod.
  6. Take multiple exposures - If your camera has a bracketing try to bracket your properly exposed photo. Expose for the highlights then shadows and then use multiple layers to create one photo in photoshop. This way you don’t blow the highlights out of light sources.
  7. Turn on noise reduction - On Nikon and Canon cameras there are  functions that turn on noise reduction for long exposures. Usually with long exposures, areas where the scenes are dark but continue to be exposed will add more noise. But beware usually the photos will
  8. Shoot in raw - I guess this is very debatable on your workflow. But I love using raw because I can change the white balance in scenes where you will not know what the color temperature of the photo. Mixed lighting is very common in more urban scenes. Plus the file size provides you the ability to print very large prints.
  9. Bring extras - Bring extra batteries. When it’s cold the batteries for your camera and flashlight usually drain much faster. I suggest using a crank flashlight. Those are helpful when you’re in a jam and can’t find batteries for your flash light. Also bring extra compact flash cards if you’re shooting raw. Sucks when you have a great shot but
  10. Start shooting at sunset - Usually if you want really  super blue skies the best time to do it is right after the sun gets down. See below photo. This was shot right before sunset when the skies were orangish. Thats at least what my photo professor told me.

Biggby Coffee? Whos that?

I went to Michigan State University and everyone there knows “Beaners” as a coffee place out on Harrison Road thats open 24 x 7. Now they’re officially changing their name to “Biggby”. I think it’s because Beaners is trying to move to their franchises to the southwest and market them there.

To East Lansing-ites we associate “Beaners” wasn’t associated as a racial slur. I think it’s great they’re siding on the side of political correctness; but i think it might conjure a negative reaction on some loyal fans of the previous name. I predict that many will react negatively because many have grown accustomed to this name and the new name isn’t really that attractive. It’s kind of banal. I’m just skeptical.

According to their press release from Beaners Biggby, they’ve spent nearly a million dollars to re-brand their coffee name.

Anil & Vu’s Wedding at the Hyatt Dearborn, Michigan

The Hyatt in Dearborn, Michgin is definately a very nice place to have a wedding. Anil & Vu totally went all out and had their ceremony decorated very well. As I said before I shot this for Jonathan Thrasher out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The day started at 8am when we got breakfast. The breakfast at the Dearborn Hyatt isn’t too great of a value. It was rather overpriced but the cook to serve omelets were pretty tasty and their options are quite limited.

So the next day I woke up early and drove to the Dearborn Hyatt. It’s about a 45 minute drive from West Bloomfield, Mi. Jonathan and I had breakfast and then we were off to shooting. The day turned out to be pretty awesome.

indian wedding ceremony decoration

This is their ceremony site. Up in the center is a platform where they set a stage fully decorated for their wedding. I’ve never seen a more elaborate and beautiful setup than this. The setup was primarily a stage used for a traditional indian weddings. I’m not sure what it’s called.

Vu Getting ready

Grabbed this mirror shot of Vu getting ready. Rarely do I get to see brides to get ready mainly because I’m a guy and they don’t want them watch them in their scrubbed nature.

Vu afterwards

This is Vu after the transformation. She looks great!

Vu watching the ceremony site

This is another shot of vu. This is after she saw the ceremony site. She was pretty pleased.
