why is it your favorite lens? I just bought a sigma 70-200mm ..think I should have waited and paid more for the nikkor 70-200mm
It's such a versatile lens. I love the bokeh it creates and it just gives a look to images that I just love. And it's a look that people just can't create with their point and shoot cameras.

simply beautiful indeed what do you use to protect your camera when it starts to rain?
I don't normally use anything. If there is a little bit of drizzle the camera is normally fine. I do have a rain cover for it if it is pouring: http://www.thinktankphoto.com/categories/camera-rain-covers.aspx

do you use the brollies or just flash on stands?
I have brollies and a small soft box, but for this shot it was just the flash. Very simple :)

Just some off camera flash. Normally one or two Canon 580ex II's.

Hiya Adam.. saw your pregnancy/maternity shots yesterday in facebook.. awesome.. did you use any lighting for them or one in particular...the one where she is standing on the rocks...and the white sheet is trailing in the wind to her side.. ?
Thanks Lea. Yeah I had a flash set up on a stand a couple of metres in front of her just to make her "pop". Most of the other shots were done with just natural light.

I have a reflector... but I rarely use it.

I only really use on-camera flash at receptions and I'll always bounce it off walls and ceilings.
