Last week's shoot with Las Vegas model, Geneva Lee Monroe went great as always. We have been working together now for about 3 months and the shoots are staying fresh and just continue to get better. For one of the themes of that shoot we decided that since photography is such a big part of what we're doing here, why not let the camera get in a few shots. I have to say, my Canon Rebel T2i never … [Read more...]

This lens is awesome!!! It's what I used to take this shot of the moon. I've wanted a telephoto zoom for a while now to be able to get great wildlife, sports and landscape shots, in which you just need that extra reach.
