Film, digital photography, both? A: I mostly shoot digital but film is available. Q: How many pictures do you take? A: Depends on the event / Weddings 400-1000 Q: Do you PhotoShop / Retouch your images? A: Yes, I enhance the image where necessary using typical darkroom techniques such as dodge and burn. I feel less is better, and less is more realistic. I concentrate on getting the best images I possibly can straight out of the camera. Q: Do you shoot studio lighting or natural lighting? A: Yes, I prefer to use both studio lighting and natural lighting depending upon what we are trying to accomplish. I do not feel a need to limit myself to only one or the other. I feel that a professional photographer should choose and use the tools wisely depending upon the situation. Q: Do you take on interns or students as employees? A: Yes, while I was in college, I worked for a few professional photographers. I learned so much and had a great time, it really confirmed for me that being a professional photographer is the career for me. I love to give what was given to me.
