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.

I will be offering a new service called composite photography, this combines studio work with my HDR work. This is a two part process one the subject will be photographed in a studio setting using lighting and a solid color background. Second the background is shot using HDR or High Dynamic Range Photography. Then both are combined together to create one awesome eye catching image. To give you a little idea of what this can look like here’s an example I took recently.
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
I recently went on a meet up with the Exposure Roanoke group for a Urban Exploration shoot. We toured some old abandoned buildings that once served as repair facilities for the trolleys that use to be in the city. Here is one of the best shots I captured during the shoot. I am off for the weekend to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to try and capture some fall colors and nature at its best 🙂
