Well the new site @ http://www.sartinphoto.com/ is up and running very well. Thanks!

More Website Stuff

2009-01-25T15:15:00.002-05:00

Well, everything is going much quicker than I expected with the new website...there is still plenty of work to do but it is functional as of now. The new site is pretty cool, its actually a Wordpress Blog with some static pages to use as my website. I even managed to import all of this blog to the new site so we haven't lost anything. So I am going to leave this site up for awhile but will not be posting to it or monitoring it very closely.

So what the heck does all this mean to everyone else? Simple...forgot this site and go to sartinphoto.com Really...it's that easy!!! So please visit the new site and be sure to leave some comments, Thanks!

Website Change

2009-01-24T19:45:00.002-05:00

If I had any sense I would hire someone to take care of my main website and spend more time actually behind a camera, but apparently that's not going to happen. I am changing (eventually) everything over to a WordPress site and have already started the process on the www.sartinphoto.com site, so it may be a little funky for awhile. When all is said and done it's all going to be great and wonderful and easier to use and all that but you may see some minor hiccups along the way...Thanks!!!

I feel bad because I haven't posted in so long :( Well I have all the usual excuses...Christmas, New Years, Traveling, etc. I have not been been photographing much lately but have been busy finishing up my last wedding, which I hope to have completed this weekend. Also stay tuned as we are about to launch our 2009/2010 Knoxville High School Senior Portrait Model Program, it's some pretty exciting stuff with some very cool incentives and prizes for our Models. This year we are going to concentrate on Halls, Central, and perhaps Anderson County. Be back with more soon!

Knoxville Nutcracker On Ice

2008-12-11T22:37:00.005-05:00

Yesterday I had the chance to accompany Mr. Tom Geisler to the Ice Chalet to assist with covering a production of "Nutcracker On Ice". Tom is THE Photography Instructor here in Knoxville and I owe a lot of my success to him. Shooting on the ice with ever changing lighting was pretty challenging, but I had a great time...watching the little ones skating around was awesome!

Wedding Ring Heart Images

2008-12-06T20:46:00.006-05:00

This is a "classic" wedding photography image that I have seen several times but had never attempted. So I had to give it a try...by changing the height of the lighting you can adjust the heart shadows...pretty cool stuff!

Nashville NoBS Workshop

2008-11-09T19:37:00.001-05:00

I recently attended a Photography Workshop in Nashville that was nothing short of AWESOME. The first day was a workshop with Steve and Shelley Harrington from http://www.steveharrington.net/ They specialize in High School Seniors and are wonderful instructors. Of course I learned a ton and had a blast! The next three days was sponsored by the NoBS Photography Forum http://www.nobsphotosuccess.com/ and was some of the most intense instruction I've ever been a part of. I can not say enough about this forum and it's members, it was just incredible. The last day was a glamour photography workshop put on by Andy Armstrong of Knoxville. Andy is an outstanding glamour photographer and is also the creator of Design House, which is an outstanding suite of Photoshop Products. His knowledge of posing and Photoshop is nothing sort of remarkable! http://www.getdesignhouse.com/

Thanks to everyone involved and I'll try to get some images up tomorrow!
