Sports Photography Using HDR Composite Images

By | Canon 6D, Composite Photography, HDR Photography, Photography | One Comment

Well as promised I will be doing more portraits this year, my thinking was to combine my art work with people to create one of a kind images that you can’t get from just anyone.  Sports Photography will be one thing that I’m going to push towards allowing your kids or athletes to become superstars by turning up the normal sports photographs a few notches. Here’s an example using my son Alex as a model and baseball as the sport. The HDR background was taken at a local baseball field the kids used this past season. Then the model or subject photograph is taken in a studio setting but this could be taken anywhere using a solid background and with enough space using soft boxes and speed lights.  If you have any questions about my work or if you’re interested in having portraits like this taken feel free to contact me at NFirebaugh@NFirebaughimages.com .

Big Kid On Christmas Morning

By | Canon 6D, Photography, Virginia | No Comments

So Christmas is finally here! The wait to use my new camera is over 🙂 so like a little kid I ripped it open, hooked up my Promote Control and mounted it on my Slik tripod and out the door I went.  I’ve had this under the tree for almost a month and I was about to bust. Below is a photograph I took of Mill Mountain Star in Roanoke,VA with the new Canon 6D which is my first full frame DSLR. I was bummed when I got home and tried to process my raw files using Photomatix 4.2 because it doesn’t recognize the files yet so the HDR will have to wait until the update comes out.

Christmas Portrait Sessions

By | Photography | No Comments

I have decided for 2013 to start doing more portraits and composite photography. I couldn’t think of a better way to get this started than Christmas Portraits, starting today and ending next Saturday I will be shooting little ones and family portraits.  A big THANK YOU goes out to all who signed up for these shoots and without support from my fans and clients I wouldn’t be where I’m at today.

If you’re in the market for family portraits, portraits of your kids or loved ones keep me in mind. You can contact me for prices and availability by email at  nfirebaugh@nfirebaughimages.com

Fun With The Fall Colors

By | Photography | No Comments

I was out shooting the leaves on the Blue Ridge Parkway when I found this tree with some cool colors but really couldn’t come up with a good composition….  So I decided to try something a little bit different. I used my Canon T1i with a 70-200mm F4L lens and zoomed in to the leaves once I had it focused and fired off the shot I turned the zoom ring while the camera was taking the photo. The result was a pretty wild abstract full of color and would look great hanging on someone’s wall.
