Put up shots from the wedding I did on Saturday. They are over on the site at www.niallmccarthy.net.

Thanks guys. Please leave comments. I think I really upped my game with this last shoot.

2 things

HUGE thanks to Padfoot for helping me get the site up and running without any bugs. Any and all photo updates will be over there from now on, so if you use it, update your rss feeds.

Also, does anyone have any personal recommendations for the printing of business cards? Any places you've used before? I'm looking for features like rounded corners and matte finishes..

thank you blogosphere. Hopefully you will be less dead soon.

EDIT: Business cards will be done in 3 days. Here they are-- tell me what you think. Looking for VERY simple but bold.




They will be printed on thick cardstock with a matte UV finish with big fat rounded corners. So excited.

new blog up and running

kind of.

ok, now I need some serious help. I don't understand the best way to create a blog post with a lead of picture, and then click to follow galleries. I don't understand how to make the intro slideshow work. I don't understand why www.niallmccarthy.net and www.niallmccarthy.net/wordpress take me to two different sties. Basically, I need help. Can I meet with some of you guys that have a ton of knowledge about all of this? Help? Please?

Already bought the domain and server space and all of that, so I'm not going to not pursue this.

Thanks guys,

Niall

21st birthday

Had a great birthday that I spent with family, Ben and Nat. Good times were to be had as we hung out at the Yardhouse for my "first" beer. Nat got me the Canon fisheye and I got enough money to go on our road trip. Hot dang!

Professional Opinions Needed

In my quest to start my own business I am currently designing all of my online options, website, blog.. ya know. This post is about the blog section. I've decided to go with wordpress because I really like what I've seen and the options that are available to me. Since it will be a strictly photo blog that showcases the latest projects and such, I am looking for a wordpress theme that is simple with a huge emphasis on the photos being posted, yet retaining easy navigation. With that criterion set, I have come to these to themes..

I would like everyone's opinion as to which of the two layouts they like better. Please leave your feedback in the comments.. THANK YOU!

E3

Went with Samuel today to shoot one of the VIP parties at E3 for Sony Europe and had a really rad time. Learning a lot from this internship for sure.

Got the internship! Here's the site to check out: www.samuellippke.com .

Already a whole lot of fun and I'm learning so much. Will keep everyone posted.



Blogosphere is really down lately huh? Guess it's because everyone is busy.



Anyway, took some pics tonight and thought they came out great. Tell me what you think please. Always helpful.

Good night and good days,

Also: for those of you who are photographers (or shoot with an SLR) what do you shoot in? JPEG or RAW?
