you can get a similar effect in camera using a long shutter speed and rotating the camera also try using a long shutter speed and zooming in/out. If you want to capture the car in focus and have blurry edges and set the flash to fire, have the long shutter speed and then spin the camera around, no need to move the camera too much to get a decent blurry effect.

Great pics on this page!

Nick: Was this a paid do or photography for a friend? The pics look great!

stink: I'm the same, no confident enough yet to do a wedding! Nor have I even been to a wedding before! :(

I've done a few.. high pressure photography situations so far. One was shooting the Show n Shine awards ceremony at the North East VW Festival. That was scary when my flash started playing up!!

Done a few birthday parties/gigs and special occasions, etc.

It's hard working knowing you only have this one chance to take the photo before the moment is gone forever!

Neither really, just snaps I took at my mates wedding. I did them an album of the ones I took and they liked it more than the official one!
