Published Photographer

I'm a published photographer! One of my shots made it to the UMaine student newspaper, The Maine Campus. It's a good start ; )

Signed and framed print

What a difference printing a large copy of one of my images and framing/matting makes! I was very impressed in how it came out. I have my very first satified customer of an original Tony Llerena Photography art print. : ) Thanks Lauri!

Me on TV

I did an event shoot for McDonald's Coffee Ambush at the University of Maine for National Coffee Day. I just happened to be in the background while WABI 5 was filming a student's interview.

Pocketwizard Plus II's are the way to go!

I purchased a Pocketwizard tt1 and tt5 despite reading terrible reviews and I was severely disappointed. They failed on me during one of my photo sessions leaving me quite embarassed. I was using them with a 430EX attached which apparently has the greatest RF interference so I shouldn't have been surprised but I felt that something that costs $430 should perform on command. The flash wouldn't even fire from 10 feet away!

Luckily, Amazon has a great refund policy so I sent them back and ordered the older, but tried and true, Plus II's and I am quite pleased. I know there are less expensive ways to do remote flash but I wanted a system that was proven and reliable since I like to buy things right the first time.
