Wedding Photography Tips! By Andy Comber Photography

Some very successful podcast Host and pro photographers would probably at this point give you a whole bunch of tips and tricks, a check list of do's and don'ts, not me.

I think its always best to show a simple explanation as visually as possible to make the message sync in quicker.

Watch the following video and see if you can guess my one single tip?

HINT: it has just 3 words in my tip

OK this IS photography related (sort of)

Now this was blogged some time ago by my friend James Beltz at BC Photo and Phototips.biz but I only just got the chance to watch it. Another example of basic equipment and tools used to accomplish something amazing.

Here an HD Camera is sent to the edge of space with an iPhone being used as a GPS locator. The footage is amazing considering the equipment used.

It just goes to show you, you don't need fancy expensive equipment to make something cool.

Watch and Enjoy............

OK Another Non Photography Post (Sorry)

I saw this some years ago and it has allegedly since been banned.
Now im not a fan of Microsoft generally but I do have an Xbox 360 for some games.
This advert was a stroke of genius, why it was banned defies logic.

I have posted this just for a bit of fun, no hidden meaning, not clever link to photography, no relevance to anything other than I find it a great advert.

What say you all?

Motorola now suing Apple for patent infringement

Some of you will know I am a Machead. "Once you go Mac you never go back" and all that jazz.
Its fair to say I am a computer Geek, I get that too, no really I get it!!

Recently Apple (among other large companies) has been in the firing line for law suits about copyright or patent infringements ranging from the completely probable to the downright absurd particularly in the mobile market.

Whilst looking into this latest law suit I came across the following diagram and it made me laugh but does actually make some sense in trying to explain the complex system of the legal battles infrastructure.

See what you think.....

 Now for all I know this could just be the DNA diagram of the genetic structure of a caffeine powered frog or the love child of a praying mantis and a goat, but I thought id blog it for a bit of fun to be poked where you see fit.

I may be a MacHead and a complete Apple fanboy but I can still laugh at adversity sometimes ;)

New Nikon Body Rumours Hot Up!

There are considerable speculations about an announcement for a Nikon D4 and now it seems a replacement also for the D700 - the D800.

The D4 is likely to boast a 16MP sensor and 11 FPS with a new AF system as well as HD video recording. With the possibility of a D4X having a 34MP sensor this would drastically improve the current lineup of both Pro and Prosumer bodies in the Nikon range.

More on the Rumours can be found here

WOW just WOW!!!

Ok now I realise that this may not mean a lot to many of you but one of my photos has been featured on Flickr EXPLORE pages. The photo features was this one........

Getting featured on Explore is notoriously tricky and Im amazed one of my photos has featured. I look on it as a prestigious event, no matter how insignificant it may seem.

I can only assume that this was due to the huge interest this has generated in a short time and I now have had my first "EXPLORED" Image.

Thank you to all who have viewed my image, added as favourite or just left comments. Your support is greatly appreciated and this has truly made my day.

I Love you all!!!!

here is a link to where it was featured

Im Stoked!! :D

Shooting A Celebs Enzo

On wednesday evening I was a very lucky individual. I was invited by a friend to a top secret location for an opportunity to shoot some images of a celebrities Personal Sportscar, Namely a Ferrari Enzo.

No I don't know if you have been as close as I have to one of these babys but it just screams "Menacing"

The engine doesn't purr along, it GROWLS. when you touch the throttle a tiny bit it yells "GET OUTTA MY WAY"

This car left me awestruck. Now im not normally a Ferrari Guy, Im more of a Lamorghini Fan myself but you cant help but drool at this thing.

Its a shame the owner was not around as I would have loved a portrait shoot with them with their car, but sadly it was not meant to be.

I Hope you like the image as much as I did shooting it

WWWWHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whilst I was there I saw Numerous other really special cars. Ferrari Sagliettis, Challenge Stradales a whole range of them, not to mention maybe a dozen Bentleys also. The amount of money in that place was jaw dropping.

Although surrounded by all these wonderful cars this particular Ferrari Enzo was clearly the star of the show.

I hope I did it justice with my shots and would welcome an invite to any other Super Car manufacturers Garage or showroom or "Secret Location".

Here me Lamborghini? 


Im available!!!!!! 


Im happy to travel..........I'll even let you loan me one for a week to do a really nice review and magazine cover shoot for you?

Hey, You gotta Ask, You never know who might glance there eyes over this blog right?

Id also like to say a big thanks to Anders Hareskov for the advice and help in post.

Cheers my Crazy Dane Buddy! :)
