Manti Temple pictures by Dane Shakespeare

Historic Architecture

The LDS Manti Temple in Manti, UT after a rainstorm. After doing a shoot for a client in Salt Lake City, I decided to take the scenic back roads to St. George (the long way) and was lucky enough to get a shot of this beautiful structure built in 1888.  Interestingly enough, the picture was...

Indoor Vs. Outdoor Sports Photograpy

Sports that take place indoors such as basketball, volleyball, and swimming are sometime hard to shoot – even with fast cameras and lenses.

A Test of the Big Canon Lenses

After using a Canon 300mm f/2.8 prime for sports action shots, I wanted to see what a 400mm f/2.8 prime performed like on the field.  Often you get in spots that you wished you had a little more reach. I had the chance to give the 400mm a try for a game I was trying...

Rain On the Rocks

Sometimes you just don’t notice features of a landscape until something happens to show you a new angle.  This image was taken just after a rainfall on a road I drive by ever day.  This day, I noticed, stopped and took some shots.

Golden Hour Photo Shoot

Golden Hour Light

This image is from a photo shoot I did mid-season soccer.  Soccer is a great game to shoot because generally the games are early enough that there is good light – until the sun goes down and the field lights come on.  The golden hour is when the sun is just going down – everything...
