Spent the day down in Mount Ayr covering the dress rehearsal for The Dance Connection‘s upcoming recitals this weekend. I love capturing action and emotion, and the day was overflowing with both.
The thrilled client was provided with over 1,800 images from the day.
I’ve been holding my breath for months, waiting for the release of the RadioPopper JrX flash triggers, tearfully watching them push the release date back further and further. The latest update on their blog specified a mid March release, which has far come and gone. Contacting them directly always yields a response that they’re releasing on a date in a couple weeks, which gets pushed back another week when they’re contacted by somebody else 20 seconds later.
They’re seriously losing out on a huge market share with these delays and failure to keep the general public updated. They can’t compete without a shipping product, and they’re losing respect as a company by portraying such incompetency and poor customer service.
With wedding season coming up, it was time to come up for air, and I had no choice but to purchase the Alien Bee CyberSyncs today instead. I know they’re also an awesome product (I love the AB800 lights I already have from them) and know I’ll be thrilled. The supposed specs on the poppers had just seemed a tad more enticing, and the price tag a hair cheaper.
