**Updated** positions filled.
HOLY Cow... I'm sorta in a bind because I'm short a hand or two hands on May 16th 2009 in Atlanta. We have been CRAZY busy in the middle of high season in mexico and all my shooters are either on other jobs or attending weddings as guests.
My studio actually has 2 different weddings on May 16 in ATL. Anybody interested out there who is near the area? I really prefer no to have folks travel in because there I really can't pay travel expenses. I'm needing a good 2nd shooter for 2 events, so jobs are plentiful. 250 guests at each event, 8 hours of coverage for my wedding and 7 hours of coverage for Melissa's wedding.
I will be the lead photographer for one wedding and Melissa, our Atlanta del Sol Associate is covering an event as well. She has been the longest del Sol Associate. Her wedding is 7 hours.
Any takers? PLEASE? If you want to contact me, send me an email to matt[at]mattadcock.com por favor. Be sure to send me any links to your folios and contact info, por favor. These are paying jobs. I'm likely going to recieve some responses so please give me some time to get back with you.
Your not going to believe the wedding that I just shot a few weeks ago.... The wedding took place at a Hacienda outside Campeche, cerca 1700. The property is by far, the most mind blowing stunning wedding site I've ever laid my eyeballs on.... OK, here is some FF. Very traditional shot here, just mixed it up with colors. The groom is a lighting designer and works on giant commercial projects... he took no time off planing one of the most KICK ASS design for this property. Slideshow coming soon.... I'll post it here soon when I get finished editing.
This shot is traditional, not our typical style of shot, but every once in a while, its ok to just take a boring traditional shot, just make sure you challenge yourself technically. All we did was gel our speelight with 1/4 CTO and set to 1/16 power. These colors literally melt the pixels and can present a challenge to work with. The flash can always be dialed in as a "safe" light, always there to save the day.

Shot at 1/30th with my new 24mm T&S (not tilting or shifting though) at f4.0, ISO 800 Canon 5d

Look how insane this location is. This chapel has no roof and is more than 400 years old...kinda cool. Shot by our Associate in Mexico, Vincent. NO FF value, sorry.
Let me know if you have any ideas for shooters for me for may 16th.
Cheers,
matt
