A girl that I went to high school just asked me to be a fan of "hot metal photography" on facebook, I believe the that photographers are her older sister and brother in-law. Although the name for some reason really annoys me, I had fun looking through their work. I really enjoy the smile booth photos from the weddings they go to, because it seems like it would be really fun to shoot! I think it's also cool to see the photos with the photographers in them so you can see the equipment they are using. Check it out

I agree the name is a real turn off.
It seems they have a lot of fun with couples though. pretty nice wedding work.
On a sidenote, huge pet peeve of mine is when people watermark images (putting a light logo on pictures). I understand the reasons why it happens but it just bugs the hell out of me
As far as the name goes, we wanted something that hinted at pittsburgh with out being in your face black and gold. hot metal studio is named after hot metal bridge. It shows some love for pittsburghs steel heritage without being something like Steel City Pictures or Three Rivers Photos..... so yeah. i never realized anyone would take offece to it.
as far as the watermarking goes. its not so someone cant steal my photos or anything. its just to be able to brand ourselves. we have got to be known some how. some photographers are blasting there name over the center of the image. i think ours is very very subtle.
aside from all that i do appreciate the kind comments! Its so humbling for us to even find ourselves referenced on a blog such as this!
let us know if we could ever help you - jonathan cooper
