If you are interested in the technical side of photography, then this page may be of interest. My equipment is the highest quality professional grade from the latest Canon SLR, the fabulous Canon 5D MK1V to Canon's L series professional grade lenses.
Having the best tools for the job is a must for me, not just because I need reliable equipment, but because I want to provide my clients with imagery that is of the best optical quality available.
For lighting at weddings I use the fabulous Canon 600EX-RT flashguns. which can be fired remotely off camera. For commercial work out on location I rely on the awesomely powerful Elinchrom Ranger high speed AS 1100WS power pack, this power pack brings studio quality lighting to a location even when there is no mains power available. In the studio I can either use the Elinchrom power pack or my mains powered Elinchrom 500BXRi flash system with up to four 500 watt wirelessly fired strobes. Everything I shoot is shot in RAW to give the best possible final results, with editing taking place in Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop CC, loaded onto an Apple 27inch desktop computer, or when on location an Apple Mac Book Pro with Retina display.
