Using the d810 24-70 and a d610 w/70-200. I have never used bracketing option as I do portraits mainly ( not sure if thats relevant or not). I am doing a wedding this friday for a friend. Is bracketing good to use just in general or just certain applications; or not at all for a wedding...

bought a back up body and a 24-70 lens. 24-70 for my d810 and 70-200 perhaps for back up body or maybe the 85?

So i shoot with a nikon d810 i have the following lenes. 70-200 2.8 50mm 1.4 35 mm 1.8 85 mm 1.8 I had a close friend that asked me to shoot for her wedding (NOTHING EXTRAVAGANT) But I want to do a good job. I was thinking of getting a d800 body and using a 70-200 and perhaps the 85? or...

Ok been some months or so, and the more I learn about Lightroom and natural lighting the more my head spins. Any critique from you all would be appreciated. As I said before your friends or family tend to always tell you how great it is; maybe not to hurt your feelings. The learning comes from...

What do you all use to transfer photos over to a bigger screen for viewing, editing, or showing people. Do you wi-fi it from camera, connect using an cable adapter? Whats preferable android tablet, ipad, laptop? I thought about using my iphone 6s plus but would i be limited?

Ok so for Christmas my wife (santa) bought me a 17-50mm lens by sigma. Maybe she saw me looking at it one night and took note, but here it is. My question is I usually shoot with a 70-200 mm or 85 mm for portraits. Ive been a single subject shooter and by no means a pro photographer, more or...

Ok this was a first time taking photos of a baby. Man it was difficult at first, they like to move around alot. My last post i got helpful hints about composition, focus, etc. This was my latest. Any critique would be helpful. As I said before friends and family always tell you its great, but...

So do you all keep original size when exporting to save to a thumb drive or disk for the client? say from lightroom? Or do you save the edit as a tiff or jpeg?

This one is from the same shoot, I tried lightroom some more on this but once again. Lightroom is a beast for me. But as far as composition, is this better?

Any critique, suggestions would be great. Im learning my joy, and of course you always hear from family and friends how great the picture is. But from fellow photographers is really where the learning starts. Uploaded in jpeg, seems to look different from NEF in lightroom. Thanks in advanced

How does one take such an uplose picture like this. Do you think it was taken then cropped? Ive tried to get up close like this with a 50mm 1.8, an 85mm 1.8 even the 35mm. Just wondering what your opinion is.. https://instagram.com/p/9rtbhDo8N1/

I use currently a Nikon 85mm 1.8 lens and a 35mm 1.8. I love the 85 lens for single portrait photos. Ive been looking at the Tamron 2.8 70-200 mm lens also to use for versatility. My question is this lens a preferred lens also for portraits? The 85mm doesnt do very well for group photos, so I...

So I have been messing around with lightroom 5 some more, trying to edit them as close as to natural as I can. Here is my recent attempt. .
