Hey! We Moved!

Coding and web development was never my strong point. And it still isn't. But these last couple days of staying up late and doing research finally got this blog migrated over to a new back end. While I enjoyed Blogger, it's time to move on! Big welcome to the new Wordpress blog!

The url should remain the same.

WPPI: What's up!

Day started early for us. At least for me. I stopped by the Radiopopper booth to help out and also sign some a few people up for a free hands on wireless lighting class. Radiopopper will be supplying units the wireless transmitter for the students to test out. One thing I wasn't counting on was the stampede of people at 10:30am today.

Later that day, Mike and Cody got up on stage at the Miller's booth.








Come join us again at the Miller's booth tomorrow at 11am. Definitely stop by and introduce yourself.

Big thanks to Jillian Kay for grabbing these shots for me. If you have a few moments to spare, check out her work on her website :)

WPPI: Getting there...

After staying up all night working on updating the new blog, it occured to me, 4am is only minutes away. That means we make our drive out to the airport to catch our flight to Las Vegas.

Quick photo before the flight attendant threatened to take the camera away from us.

Flight was only a short 3 hours. I think I was able to catch one or two zz's. Mike, fighting an eye infection, created a rather ingenious eye patch to block out the lights. I have to say I was rather jealous that I didn't think of that earlier. It looks snug too.



Once we landed, we took a quick walk around MGM Grand. Cody tried out a hat inside one of the malls many shops. Jonas Brothers?



A view from our hotel room. I accidentally loaded the fullsized image so it might take a while to load.




Enough with the shenanigans. Off to pick up our passes. We hope to see you out on the WPPI convention floor. If you do see us, please come up and introduce yourself! You can find us at Collages, Denny Mfg, Miller's, or Radiopopper booths. You might also come early to the Radiopopper booth to sign up for a limited seating free wireless flash demo with TriCoast and Radiopopper.

Death of a blog :(

What does that mean? Well, we've been blogger users for a long time. Years. It's nice and integrates with all kinds of Google stuff. But it's time to grow up and move on. So, if you're a RSS or Atom subscriber, check back in a day or two to update your feed.

You don't feel like it? How about we make it worth your while. Click to find out more.

Check back, update your feed, and add us to your blogroll. Leave a comment in a specific, yet un-announced, upcoming post. First 20 people to leave a blog on that specific post, will go into a drawing for a set of Radiopopper P1. Which is one of our prized possessions in our camera bag.

The Radiopopper P1 is the previous generation of Radiopppers. The winner will receive the set straight out of our camera bags. Fully tested, and functional, but has no trade-in value.

When you do leave a comment, please be sure to leave a link to your blog, so we could add you to our blogroll. (And to see if we are in your blogroll as well, so you can qualify for your drawing :) We will do a drawing while we are at WPPI and announce the winners then.

Sound fair? Talk to you soon!

Studio Photography - The Magazine - We Made the COVER BABY!!!

TriCoast is so very proud and humbled to have been chosen as the photographer or in this case the photographers to make the cover of Studio Photography's Wedding Issue for 2009. Studio Photography has always been a magazine which we have personally subscribed too and read for their educational aspects and cutting edge in the photography business, but truly NEVER thought we had a chance to be on the cover.


A session which is known for being one of THE images of our amazing buddies at Collages.net, our "Red Wall Bride" is truly one of TriCoast's favorite brides and even now, several years later the image still is one of the strongest TriCoast has ever taken. Check out the Online Issue of Studio Photography and remember the magazine is FREE to all who are interested so while stopping by on their site sign up for your subscription, I promise you wont be sorry!

Thank you again Studio Photography for trusting us and our artwork for this amazing honor, truly it means the world to us!

The Dave Cross - Yeah the Photoshop Guru and TriCoast

Well hell has frozen over for TriCoast because one of our dreams and passions has come true which we never thought would happen! TriCoast has the honor of being on Dave Cross blog with Photography, Photoshop, tips and tricks and other goodies from the main man of Photoshop!

Mike was honored to be asked by Dave to "Finish the Sentence" for his blog post last week. Roughly Dave asks questions and Mike tried to answer them as truthful and honest as possible without showing just how much of a real dumb-butt Mike is!

Thanks again Dave for asking us, we truly were honored and yes shocked one who even know who we are and two you would have us on your really cool blog. Hopefully in the future, we can do more things together because as Jordan said "that man is amazing"!
