Alexandria Museum of Art has a new photography policy

Alexandria Museum of Art

For my photographer friends and clients:  We learned this week that the Alexandria Museum of Art (a business that claims to want to promote visual arts)  is now charging $150 for use of their property  (even if you just want to take one shot in front of the building).
Now you know. Is it worth it?
UPDATE: ...

Hmm. This is upsetting, especially for a part of the city that is supposed to be struggling to get “back on the map”.

…and an art museum at that… I guess they aren’t about helping artists, only making money. Pretty sure the “PHOTOSHOOTS IN FRONT OF OUR BUILDING” account won’t see much green…

I do know that the Museum is under new management/leadership. But I agree, this is pretty ridiculous. I can understand charging for photoshoots inside the museum, but outside? What about tourists who think the building is cool? Is there going to be a guy monitoring the parking lot for people with cameras? I’m pretty disappointed with the AMOA. Thanks for sharing Mark

All about the Cake Pull (A great Southern Tradition)

Cake Pull’s are a fun Southern tradition that we see at many of our weddings (especially around New Orleans).  Usually, there are people in the audience who have no idea what a Cake Pull is, so we dove into the history a bit to shed a little light on this fun...

Thank you for sharing that! What an awesome tradition that I have never heard of!

At the wedding I shot this weekend, I thought the same thing…I still don’t know what the tradition is! The bride was creative and thoughtful enough to put out a sheet that listed these…I love this tradition! :) Nice images, Mark.

I love this idea! I sooo plan on incorporating it into my own wedding!

What kind of camera should I buy? (tips for starting out)

We originally posted this on our Facebook Fan Page last year. This is a question we receive often, so I wanted to share it here on the blog as well. If you are looking for a general purpose camera to take snapshots of your family with, I’d recommend getting suggestions from a local salesman-...

i wish there was one of these for “I wanna model how do i get into it” or “i want my kid to model how do i get them into it” i swear people sometimes make me feel like i must be the uglest person in the world… cause i get some OOOOGLY people saying they wanna model or even people with some not so pretty kids. ok i feel so bad for saying that… but it really makes me feel bad about myself when they do. :*(

so funny that you posted this…. b/c JUST today, I for the first time had someone come up to me and ask about which would be the best point and shoot camera to buy…. HA. And this is not a normal occurence for me. :) too funny. But I do agree, dpreview.com is excellent source for researching cameras.
