In a day and age where everyone has a digital camera and a lot of people call themselves photographers, it's hard to find true professional photographers. What makes someone a professional photographer? What's the difference between a pro and a Guy-With-Camera? Why should you pay more for professional photography services than using your friend who just got a new camera?

Being a professional photographer is not just about handing someone a disc at the end of a shoot and saying good luck. Being a professional photographer requires attention to detail from start to finish. From the first phone call to the final professional interaction when the client has the product in their hands; this is what stands pros againsts amatures. And having fun is most important. Whether the shoot is serious, casual, dramatic or laid back - laughing and having a good experience is very important. A true professional photorapher creates an atomposhere and provides an awesome finsihed product.

Experience sets apart a Guy-With-Camera (a commonly used term on photography website forums) and a professional. Experience and having a trained eye is key. Professional photog's create magic and put people in certain location with the right lighting and equiptment. A pro's eye is trained to create beautiful images. This is naturally what happens! It's like a painter that gets better over time, the same creativeness happens with photographers.

Shelling out a few more dollars for a professional photographer makes as much sense as spending a litlte more for a nicer car, or better home. When you get high quality service and an awesome product from start to finish you should pay more!

So support your local artists and photographers. Recognize a professional and stick with him or her. Have fun and trust the experience of a true professional photographer. You get what you pay for so stick it to the man and shell out a few extra bucks to support the economy and the arts. But most importantly, enjoy the beauty that photography allows us to capture and keep forever. Photography is an art, and that should be respected and adored first and foremost and forever.

Sakar 67mm Circular Polarizer Filter $49.95 Light rays which are reflected become polarized. Polarizing filters are used to select which light rays enter your camera lens. They can remove unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass and also saturate colors providing better contrast. The effect can be seen through the viewfinder and changed by rotating the filter. The filter factor varies according to how the filter is rotated and its orientation to the sun. Filter factor is between 2.3 and 2.8 (approx. +1.3 stops). Circular polarizers are specifically designed for use with auto-focus SLR cameras (They will also work on manual systems and video cameras without problems). This filter is a must for all outdoor sunny or snowy high glare situations. It will cut out the extra bright glare and allow you to get the true blue colors, not washed out. Most photographers view this filter as "sunglasses" for your camera lens. Circular Polarizing Filters are used to increase color saturation, like darkening blue skies so that white clouds stand out. It eliminates reflections from non-metallic surfaces like glass and water. It helps reduce softness in scenery caused by atmospheric haze. This filter will not change the overall color balance of a photograph. Polarizers are commonly used to control glare on water and to allow the camera to see below the surface. They are also used to reduce glare on car bumpers and to control reflections on plate-glass windows. Polarizers are so versatile that they can perform the opposite functions as well. Some cinematographers use polarizers to increase or enhance reflections, simply by changing the filter?s setting. "Circular" refers not to the shape, but a special design that does not interfere with metering of auto exposure or auto focus systems

Sigma 8-16mm F4.5-5.6 DC HSM For Sigma Cameras $699 The NEW Sigma 8-16mm F4.5-5.6 DC HSM is the only one of its kind. This is the first ultra wide zoom lens with a minimum focal length of 8mm, designed specifically for APS-C size image sensors. It has an equivalent angle of view of a 12-24mm lens when used on digital camera with an APS-C size image sensor. Sigma?s new FLD glass elements, which have the performance equal to fluorite glass, compensate for color aberration. One hybrid aspherical lens and two glass mold elements give excellent correction for distortion and astigmatism. An inner focusing system produces high definition images throughout the entire zoom range and the Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting while superior peripheral brightness ensures high contrast images throughout the entire zoom range. HSM ensures quiet and high speed AF as well as full-time manual focus capability. It has a minimum focusing distance of 9.4 inches throughout the entire zoom range which allows photographers to emphasize the subject by creating exaggerated perspectives. This lens has a compact construction with an overall length of 4.2 inches and a maximum diameter of 2.9 inches and is perfect for shooting landscape photography, architecture, building interiors, photojournalism, wedding photography, group pictures and more.
