Valpo Women's Basketball vs. Cleveland State (January 5th, 2009)

Took the 5D2 out for some more sports action.... this time for the Valparaiso University women's game against Cleveland State. I used the 70-200 2.8 IS as usual... and the shots were taken at ISO 4,000 f2.8... shutter varying between 1/800 or 1/1000 generally depending on the lighting.

Below are a few of my favorites:

December 20th Wedding

This was my first wedding with my 5D Mark II as well as my first wedding getting to use the 35 1.4/L Both thoroughly impressed me in what I was able to pull off using them. I second shot this wedding for / with Cindy of Captured By Candi.

First we will start off with my all time favorite wedding photograph:


I also got a great shot of her dancing with her mom:


The cake looked very yummy


The couple had this awesome cozy as the gifts for everyone


I love this shot I took of their guests


Since there was a Christmas tree at the reception hall, I used it for the ring shot


The couple was really fun to work with


And everyone had lots of fun!
