Movies You can Watch a Million Times

I think we all have one movie that stands out as one we can watch a million times.    NPR interviews some acclaimed directors and actors to find out which films are on their heavy rotation.  If you know me then you know mine is Blade Runner.  What's yours.

New Camera Review + Highlight Film

In the week leading to Kasey and Christian's wedding held at the Stone Mill outside York Pa, I had lost faith in my Cannon 7d. The reason was glitch after glitch, so quickly I picked up a Canon 4ti to use as a back up. Smaller and lighter, is not really a plus for me but as a hobbyist this could be nice. What I like about it is the auto focus and a touch screen.

 The first wedding I used it was at the aforementioned wedding at the Stone Mill and overall I came away please. Most of the day I used the 1.4 lens I love. No matter what lenses I purchase I usually just use this one almost all day. This lens and my camera became fast friends and I used the auto focus on some beauty shots with foreground and background elements. It also has a pretty decent facial recognition software built in and I tested it with my twin boys with good success. Not quite ready to use auto focus with a bride heading down the aisle towards me, but with good light and a native lens, I may in the future.

 It's an inexpensive camera and worth picking up for a backup DSLR for a professional or a primary camera for someone just following their kids around the house or ballpark.

 Check out the highlights from Kasey and Christian's party down below.

My birthday is June 3rd and this year I had my biggest celebration over.  Must have had two hundred and fifty turn out.  Musical acts from as far as Italy played their heart out for me.  There were canons shooting rose petals.   Even the dance floor had my initials printed on it.  However there there was a typo because it read 'JDR' and rather than 'JCR'.  There was an amazingly talented and fun photographer Amanda Young shadowing me.   Pretty awesome day all around.

Shockingly, I reviewed the footage and realized the party was not for me, but in fact is was an for a super nice and ridiculously photogenic couple -  Joanna and Richard.     I'll have another birthday but their wedding was unmatched!.
