Here's an update to an earlier blog about Help Portrait.
Check out their website to hear what it's all about, but basically a bunch of great Kansas City photographers joined in with over 6,000 photographers worldwide and gave away professional portraits to those in need on December 12th.
Studio 132 in downtown hosted our event, one of several in KC that day. Thanks to all the photographers that donated their equipment, time and money to help in this incredible cause.
Thanks to Jason Domingues for helping coordinate the event, edit all the photos and handle the printing process!
Here's Jason's shot of me filming:
Also thanks to Digital Labrador for donating the lenses and Zacuto video rig that helped make this video possible:

Amy W:
Ok, so yes, the video made me cry. I am incredibly proud of you my friend for all the work you did and are doing with Help Portrait. We are so blessed to be able to have family photographs taken on a regular basis and know how precious they are to us and the generations to come. Thank you for serving His Kingdom in this way.

So incase you haven't heard, the new digital cameras like the Canon 7D and 5D Mark II shoot incredible video as well as photos. "Fusion" is a term those cool folks out in California have been throwing around that basically means photo + video together.
So here's my Family Fusion piece. I used my awesome nephews Grady & Casey along with my sister and brother in law Aaron to try this out on - You've seen Grady & Casey on here before in photos - get ready to see them in live action - enjoy:

Happy Anniversary Adam + Whitney. Thanks for letting me be a continued part of capturing memories for you and your family!

So, this last minute, like a week away, but I'm teaching a class next Tuesday night at Digital Labrador.
It's one of my favorite places because I rent lenses and fun gear from them all the time for all my weddings. I've even covered the shop for them a few weekends while they've gone to Mexico or the Flint Hills for one of their awesome photo workshops.
So Brud, one of the awesome guys up there approached me one day and said "what do you know about shooting video with a Digital SLR camera?" Well gang, quite a bit.
I actually used the Canon 5D Mark II shortly after it came out to film for a Food for the Hungry video early in the year, did another marketing piece with it, and I recently bought a Canon 7D for all my corporate marketing and wedding videos next year.
So - are you a photographer or videographer wanting to know the basics of shooting video with one of the coolest things in the video world right now?
Swing by the Digital Labrador site and check it out under the "Learn" tab.
There's some exciting new things happening in the photo/video world with these cameras - come learn about shooting video, composition, creative shots, dealing with audio and later editing - I look forward to meeting you!
