This last weekend I helped my friend Kenny Kim shoot two weddings in Chicago. Second shooting creates a great opportunity to try something new and challenge yourself. This weekend not only allowed me to try new photography techniques, but new life experiences. I experienced new food and culture while shooting both Asian weddings. I even had my first taxi cab ride! Kenny has been a great influence and inspiration on my business and life. I would encourage other photographers to second shoot at each others weddings. It is a lot of fun doing what you love with others who share the same passion.
Also for this last weekend's weddings I indulged myself by renting the new Nikon D700 camera body. My friend Paul at Lens Pro To Gohooked me up with this amazing camera. I am in love with the functions and abilities this full frame camera has. Just for fun I wanted to show you a fascinating image. The below ceremony shot was taken at an incredible 2,000 ISO!!! I intentionally did no adjustments in Photoshop to show you how amazing the D700 performs at high ISOs. Give Paul a call and try out something new and yes he does rent Canon equipment too. Have a great day!

Thanks for coming out and help Matt. You were a great help! :) Look forward to working with you again.
I'm drooling over the 5dMII on Kenny's site would love to see if it would make my work better. I don't know much about Nikon but looks like it turned out to work wonderfully for you!
