Some Holiday Photo Advice

Friday, November 20th, 2009

When Rod Stewart sang “Every Picture Tells A Story” he was lying. While an accepted fact that every picture should tell a story we all know that few actually accomplish it.

Holidays are about stories. Stories are the way civilizations pass the reasons behind its traditions to future generations and photos are the way we [...]

Economy Busters - Guilt Free Shopping!

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

“Slow economy…depression…recession…economic downturn…” We’re hearing it, seeing it and reading it everywhere we go! And the mantra of “save, save, save” is never far behind. But lets be honest for a moment-even in hard times (which I’ll not deny that these are) we still have an itch that makes us want to go out and just buy stuff. Unfortunately now that seems to be accompanied by a feeling of guilt when we are told we’re supposed to “save, save, save.” Well, have no fear all of you deal-seeking shoppers. Now more than ever there are great deals to be found that are just begging for your perusal. Best of all, the prices are so low that Abe’s of Maine is happy to give you “Guilt Free Shopping.”

Oh Baby! Taking Better Pictures of Your Little One

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

Babies can be the most precious things in life, but you have to make the moments you have with them last. Before you know it they’re grown up, asking for the car keys and telling you not to wait up. Make sure the pictures you take of them are as good as they can be so your memories will be forever lasting. Here are some ways the baby pictures you take can be more impactful.

Candid Shots: Great Photography, Spontaneously!

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

Pictures of family and friends with their arms around each other smiling gleefully for the camera will forever be a staple of the household photo album. But great pictures don’t alway have to be planned and prepared. Candid photography - spontaneous, in the moment picture taking - can provide lasting photos that are elegant, emotional, beautiful and funny. All it takes is having a camera at the ready, a fast shutter speed and an even faster trigger finger.

You don’t backup? Be afraid…be very afraid.

Friday, October 24th, 2008

In light of Halloween slowly creeping up on us, allow me to relay this short horror story:
17 year old Stacy is home alone curled up on the couch on a stormy, thunderous night. Blinding lightning flashes outside the window and suddenly…the lights go out! Scared stiff, she looks for solace and safety in her bedroom. She slowly [...]

Megapixels Don’t Have to Equal Mega-Bucks

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

These days compact digital cameras have become almost as ubiquitous as cell phones. Everybody has one. However we still hear things like  ”…a good compact digital camera will set you back a few Benjamins.” Or, “…Picture clarity and enhancement will be best on a camera with a higher number of megapixels, and that’s going to cost you.” We here at Abe’s [...]
