Hardly a day goes by without someone asking how to arrange their catalogs, and great swathes of people saying you should use a single catalog for *every* *single* *shoot*.

A few people asked why I didn’t move to the Nikon mirrorless system. And the answer was simple, I didn’t want to risk shooting a wedding with a single memory card slot. I shoot RAW to both...

Nothing like getting stuck into the middle of a party and capturing everyone having an awesome time. But invariably the lighting for the party isn’t great, what’s fantastic for a party atmosphere isn’t always good for a photographer. So if you want to capture some incredible dancing shots, you’re...
