Spiderman Told Me to Buy It

Little Guy Productions, as its always been, has been known for its video production. But what happens when a client asks you to become the videographer and photographer for their wedding?

Well, besides hiring another shooter, it means its time to dust off and upgrade the camera gear!

First up was a major upgrade; we moved from the Canon Rebel XT to the Canon XTi. The Rebel was great for what we were using it for; capturing fun stills throughout the evening and a few professional looking shots that would be later used to create the DVD case cover inserts.
But as the great Spiderman often says "With great power comes great responsibility".

With that the power and responsibility also comes a new toy; the Canon XTi and the Canon 430EX II speedlite.Oooh...pretty! And you can dance on those things! Want them at your event? Contact Ryan at The DJ Company

This photo doesn't look nearly as good with our old Canon Rebel XT setup. The internal flash would have given the skin tones a weird redish look, so adding the 430EX II Speedlite helped. With relatively low ceilings at the Casa Mia Manor house, the light was able to bounce and light the subjects fairly well.
