BIOGRAPHY PAGE 2

The photojournalistic style of wedding photography came very easy for me. I sat in on many weddings after that and worked with other professional photographers in Los Angeles to begin to learn the skills I would need to be a professional wedding photographer.

Today I shoot with Canon’s professional line of cameras and L-series lenses for photography and Sony’s professional line of High Definition video cameras for videography. I would say that my photography is 99% digital these days. I do shoot film occasionally for those who have to have their images on film. Although in reality digital has arguably surpassed film photography in both grain, color control and color accuracy.

I’m thirty two years old and I’ve been fortunate to be able to do some international wedding photography over the years and have shot weddings in India, Brazil and Japan. Some of those photos you’ll see on my website. I enjoy shooting people. I’m a pretty easy going person and I find that helps the people that I’m working with to relax in front of the camera. I am a member of WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) and PDIA (Professional Digital Imaging Association) and most importantly I enjoy what I do. I look forward for the opportunity to work with you and capture the most precious moments of your life. Sincerely, Don Ptashne
