iPad Vs Print Folio…

ACMP: 01 March, 2012

*IPAD VS PRINT PORTFOLIO -  *Meg Moss, Content and Photographer Management at ImageBrief.com Are the days of individualized printed portfolios gone?

James Pevitt : 09 January, 2012

Port Fairy's East Beach is regally visited by Southern Right Whales during the cold winter months. I had been into water photography for some time and my equipment being an EOS 3 with a 70-200 zoom all in an Aqua Tech Water Housing. Looking at the East Beach I noticed  a large whale cruising around the bay. Could I get a pic of it with the water housing? I was going to soon find out! The ol

Andrew Richey: 06 December, 2011

To date, this year has been a busy one. We have had some fun working on some exciting projects and I thought we would share a few pics with you...

We were recently selected to shoot the Melbourne Spring Fashion Week Campaign images. It's a thrill to see the huge multi media exposure and our pictures flying high on flags, billboards, posters and all sorts of other applications across the city and further afield...

"On Assignment" Mauro Risch, Shooting a Concert GigaPixel Crowd…

Mauro Risch: 05 December, 2011

A few months ago I was contacted by a Sydney based Agency to help them check the viability of a project. The reference they had was the Glastonbury festival, where there were 8.000 people in the crowd on a sunny beautiful day. The final shot(1.2GB) was placed on the web(FB) where most of the attendees tagged themselves. I thought it would be technically challenging, but if the guy did in the UK, we should be able to manage the same results Down here. The difference would be: our Gig was indoors. My plan was to shoot a series of images and then stitch them together.

Tools of the Trade - iTools…

Chris Benny: 28 February, 2011

Sydney photographer Chris Benny shares one of his Tools of the "Trade"Currently 95% of my work is on location and there are two gadgets I wouldn't leave the studio without.The first is my iPhone and an application called Sun Seeker. I probably use this application about twice a week. It uses your iPhones camera, GPS and magnetometer to work out solar position, path and your current location... Ehh...Make sense? Simply point your iPhones camera at your subject and the sun's path and current location is overlaid on the screen.

"On Assignment" Rob Anderson, Shooting a "WildCad"…

Rob Anderson: 18 February, 2011

My client gave me the telephone number of Mario Condillilio, the creator of "WildCad", a custom 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville. Its amazing appearance is due to the five different colours of unique PPG Vibrance range fadeaway paint in a job that Mario estimates costs AU$200,000 alone.

"On Assignment" Mark Watson, on location for North Face…

Mark Watson: 17 November, 2010

This project was one of the best of 2010 and whilst photographically i didn't achieve all I wanted to because of a 100km+ hr wind and snowstorm bearing down on us (meaning we lost 3 days of intended shooting), from 'having fun in some amazing terrain' angle, this project was amazing.
