The digital camera age has sprouted some very interesting trends in photography. One of those trends is called the Camera Toss Photography or Kinetic Photography. This involves setting your camera to very low shutter speeds, maybe around 1 or 2 seconds, then throwing it in the air just as it’s about to take an exposure. Then you catch it before it hits the ground. Usually this is done at night near some sort of light source. The result is a fantastic array of colorful patterns that looks strangely Windows Screen Saverish.

I am truly touch by this photo. The little girl look so happy with her dog even though she lives in a slum located in Andong Village, Cambodia.  I don’t know if I would be able to produce such a beautiful smile like she does if I was in her situation.  This photo makes me want to go to Andong Village, Cambodia and help as many children as possible.

If you are a php web developer, I’m sure you’re familiar with the usage of phpmyadmin. For those who is unfamiliar, phpmyadmin is a web tool that give a graphical user interface for the mysql database. Let’s just say it makes life easier on the web developers.

So as a any good developer should do, they should always back up the database in case anything horrible happens to the server. This is easy to accomplish using the export function in phpmyadmin. Now if your database has less than 16mb of data, importing that backed up information is simple through phpmyadmin. But what do you do when you have gigs of data to import?

Graduation was coming up for Heidy Rodriguez, and she wanted to prepare some invitations with a nice graduation portrait of herself. Heidy had asked us about taking some photographs of her. This was actually the first time we had taken pictures of just one person, usually we’d be taking pictures of couples, or a family. So we had researched a lot of female poses to get inspiration for the project. We also thought it would be a good idea to get her in a 1930’s era style at a train station. Of course, because she was graduating we felt that a train station represented her new journey in life. I know, it’s really cliche, but it’s still a very creative and thoughtful cliche. Afterwords, we felt that her graduation portraits were some of the best work we’ve done.
