Happy Halloween everyone!

You don’t have to call this lens by it’s proper name, just call it the ‘nifty fifty’ and

everyone knows what you’re talking about.  You don’t?  It’s Canon’s 50mm 1.8 lens and

oh do I love it so!  I do have my sights set on the 50mm 1.4, but if you’re in the market

for a lens that’s sharp and won’t break the bank, the 50mm 1.8 is it.

Here’s a few inspiring images using this lens from Flickr:

1. Flickr soup, 2. i hear wedding bells, 3. It’s all yours baby…, 4. Train of Love, 5. Balance… balance…, 6. the girl with her heart on her sweater, 7. Jump!, 8. Untitled, 9. Week 29/52: “If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older.”, 10. Sweet Water Baby, 11. reflejos, 12. Untitled, 13. Untitled, 14. A Touch of Yellow, 15. I Love this…, 16.

And a few of my own images using this lens:

we had a great time shooting our beautiful model, Catherine the other day..here’s a few of her shots!

how great are those shoes?!  I loved those!

She needed some casual shots outdoors, but my studio is in our warehouse, luckily one of the other warehouses is used

by a guy that restores old cars and this rusty GTO was outside…I would have preferred a Ford but this would have to do, lol

Here’s a few shots from the wedding we photographed this past Saturday…

And my partner in crime, Chrissy and I are going to photograph a beauty pageant model today in the studio, should be lots

of fun!
