MRP – “Downsizing”

March 6, 2008

I’ve decided to cut wedding photography out of my generally available services. I will still offer it if someone asks, but I am not going to actively pursue it. I am going to focus on portraiture now – some changes coming to the website soon!

Flash Velcro Modification

March 2, 2008

After a long trip to Lowe’s (love that place) I exited with 36″ of Velcro. The idea was to wrap the Velcro around my flash head so I can attach light modifiers, but so I am able to take the Velcro strap off. Then, it looks a lot neater, doesn’t lower the resale value, and is pretty darn nifty.

Velcro Modification1. Here lie the lovely Velcro pieces, ready to cut. I wrapped it around the flash head to get a feel for the length.
2. Two evenly cut pieces, the other strap I made, and scraps to the left. The one side sticks to the carpet nicely – peel the backs and adhere back-to-back.
3. Here’s the finished products. Sweet and simple.
4. And this is what it looks like on the flash. Start attaching..stuff!
