It really helps to be the son of a computer guru. My father runs a small computer company based out of his home and he has been incredibly successful at it. Ever since I was a little kid, I have always been privileged to be around the latest computers and technology. So when my computer crashed this weekend when it automatically loaded a "fake virus-scan" program, I was only out of touch with my clients for a day-and-a-half as my dad fixed everything in that time span. A day-and-a-half can seems like an eternity to me.

As of now, my computer is almost back up to running order. I have to install a few more programs on it and I'm good to go. I had to upgrade my video editing software, so for the next week or so, my computer will be nothing more than an over-powered internet machine. Since I had to upgrade my editing software, I am also thinking about upgrading a handful of other things as well.

I'm looking at purchasing a fish-eye lens for my camera to add a little more variety to my shots. And I'm thinking about going HD for my video. See, the problem with HD is that with the DSLR's that are capable of shooting extraordinary quality can only shoot 12 to 15 minutes at a time. This means I would not be able to shoot your entire wedding if I got these cameras. You would compromise quality for memories forever lost. And to me, that's not an option. Also with the volume of weddings combined with the salt air of the ocean at the beach, these DSLR's will probably break in a matter of months. But, the technology is coming around soon.

Anyway, I'm off to bed. It's 6:30am! I just got done replying to all my emails. I'm hitting the hay.
