Welcome to Albert Palmer Photography
So, my first post on the new website. Wow, so much clean unused space! Why the new website? I thought I needed to do a little brand improvement starting with a new name. I have worked hard on my old website’s (www.bertpalmer.com) web ranking and it is now a popular place for couples looking for…

The Apple iPad For Wedding Photographers
Updated: I caved in, bought one and talk about it here. Okay, so how can I resist on commenting about this new piece of sleek hardware. I know a lot has already been written about this and not actually having used one yet it is hard to know if any predictions are accurate. But based…

Second Shooting
Just a quick post while I have some time. I’ve been trying to do some more second shooting of late. I always find it a good opportunity to be creative and enjoy myself slightly more when not quite so much pressure is on me. It’s also a good way of learning a little bit more…

Lightroom 3 Beta Release
So Adobe have announced the third version of Lightroom, even if it is beta this shows some of the new features. What am I most looking forward to? Well the watermarking will mean that I no longer have to export to Photoshop which will be a big time saver. Being able to publish to flickr is…
