Expodisc... Yep, that's it. I was wondering if it was a bit gimmicky--thanks for saving me some beer money!

Thanks for the suggestions!

I've seen a white balance doohicky that goes (temporarily) over the lens--have you ever tried this? But it's probably easy to just have her hold a gray card or a sheet of white paper with printed text, huh?

Either way, it's time for me to fix my white balance problems!

Hey! Thanks for the comments and critiques. Those are the reason I signed up for this. I will do my best to take a stroll through your work and give you my best as well.
Cheers!

Fantastic pictures. Chelsea's album is fabulous.

Beautiful, beautiful images as always. Thanks for sharing. Bob

Happy Easter, Paul.

Wow, great pics! Keep growing and cultivating your talent.

Thank you for twitter, Paul! I follow your fresh works ;)

i have so many questions i could write an encyclopedia!!

there's one thing that worries me about my photos. i have a Canon EOS 30D (i see you use a 20D) and a Canon 24-70/2.8L, but i find that lots of my photos are not half as crisp as yours are. could there be a problem with my camera? or i am just bad?

Hello, Paul.

Thank you for your kind message.

I am not to blame them. Your images, even the raw ones, are so good that browsing your albums is sometimes almost intimidating...

I like to browse them, because i know i can learn from them. And because your models are gorgeous as hell too!!

Hello, Paul.

The Ericka Final shots are simply breathtaking.

Always enjoy visiting you site. Wonderful work throughout!

Hi, Paul~

I'd forgotten about the RAW vs. finished thing (again). Fixing exposure (where possible) is something I do lots myself when I remember to shoot in RAW format.

No doubt you've picked up on a recurring thematic element of my personality: I forget stuff.

There are, as always, a great many incredible images among those you've posted. I'll wait eagerly to see the finished product!

Best Regards~

...now what was I going to do...?

I was pleased with that pellet stove pic bc it could be one of a kind....and it was my idea. :) Thank you for your thumbs up :)

Thank you for the email. I will take my chances for now. New pic uploaded. :)

Very nice work, you have inspired me to go back into the studio.
Excellent choice of models, themes, and lighting.

Thanks for sharing

You're welcome for the comments. I'm no photographic genius, but I try to bring up whatever seems like it might help, picky or not.

And I understand what you mean by the "photo trollers" (-: It's great that a zillion people check out your work, but if they all leave without comment, the photographer (not to mention his model--especially if she's married to him) wonders if everything posted is, well, interesting at all. I'm always interested in comments (good or bad). The least I can do is return the favor!

You've got some really terrific photographs!

thanks Paul. :)

You do very nice portraiture work. Beautiful shots.

Hello,thank you for the sweet comments
