Matt Nicolosi Photographic Art

Trina Knudsen Hey Matt, thanks for the post. It was incredible to me that on the 23rd I was experimenting with Photoshop's HDR (with less than acceptable results), and you had this post the same day. I really enjoy your work. Thanks to Melissa Jill for introducing me to your blog. Jul 25, 2008 ~ 10:34am

Matt Nicolosi Philip, wow total coincidence. Nope, never heard of or listened to that podcast. Thanks for the link, though. I'll check it out. Jenny, I actually just started shooting RAW for wedding stuff. I'm still shooting JPG for portrait work. I think it has more to do with having to work more on the fly all day for weddings where I don't have as much time to dial in my settings... I know if I didn't shoot RAW, I'd get home and realize I forgot to change my WB for half the day and have a bunch of nasty JPG corrections to do. I will shoot RAW in portrait work when I know I want to do an HDR image. Schrode, you mean that 2003 Sony 5.0MP Cybershot with 3X zoom? If it has a RAW option (as opposed to JPG), but you're going to need an app to process the RAW files. Jul 24, 2008 ~ 1:49am

Philip Casey Some people tend to over due it when converting the HDR image, however I think you have defined what HDR images on all about. Great work! Do you listen the to the Digital Photography show podcast? Because I just listened this very morning on the way to work about doing this and using photomatix.

jenny hey matt..since you, ahem, don't really shoot weddings but, ahem, seem to have wedding pics posted quite frequently now...do you shoot all of them in RAW or just the ones where you know you're gonna have alot of shadows and hi-lights? thanks Jul 23, 2008 ~ 8:55pm
