Hi there! Welcome to Depth of Field, We are a husband and wife team of of dental educators. my name is MILES CONE. i am a board-certified prosthodontist as well as a certified dental technician, AND BEYOND TEETH - I LOVE MAKING PHOTOGRAPHS. TOGETHER WITH MY WIFE, CORNELIA, we OWN AND OPERATE NUANCE, AN EXCLUSIVE, HIGH-END, PRIVATE PRACTICE SPECIALTY CLINIC LOCATED IN THE HISTORIC OLD PORT OF PORTLAND, MAINE.
DEPTH OF FIELD is a simple idea that cornelia DEVELOPED in the rough wake of our fledgling start-up dental office. during THE early days I ALWAYS KNEW that dental photography was NECESSARY to master shade-selection AND FOR EFFICIENT COMMUNICATION WITH THE LABORATORY, BUT CORNELIA QUICKLY DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS ALSO an Easy and predictable MEDIUM FOR marketING our business, and dramatically improvING OUR professional development.
we HAVE A LOT OF CAMERA GEAR, BUT AGAIN, IT WAS CORNELIA WHO NOTICED THAT ALL THE NECESSARY GEAR AND ACCESSORIES we were USing IN our DAY-TO-DAY ROUTINE Was LIMITED TO ONLY A FEW VERY AFFORDABLE ITEMS. HAVING NO EXPERIENCE WHATSOEVER WITH A PROFESSIONAL LEVEL CAMERA, OR IN THE DENTAL FIELD FOR THAT MATTER, CORNELIA QUICKLY LEARNED HOW TO MAKE REALLY OUTSTANDING PHOTOGRAPHS OF OUR PATIENTS WITH ONLY A FEW HOURS OF INSTRUCTION DURING A SINGLE AFTERNOON ON ONE OF OUR OFF-DAYS.
CORNELIA QUIPPED THAT “IF I CAN TAKE GREAT PICTURES, ANYONE CAN.” FROM THIS NOTION BEGAN OUR REVELATION THAT WHEN TAUGHT IN SMALL PERSONALIZED GROUPS, DENTAL PHOTOGRAPHY IS ACTUALLY QUITE STRAIGHTFORWARD, AND CAN BE RAPIDLY LEARNED AND APPLIED BY EVERYONE, INCLUDING DENTAL ASSISTANTS, DENTAL STUDENTS, HYGIENISTS AND LABORATORY TECHNICIANS. DENTAL PHOTOGRAPHY, LIKE LEARNING TO USE A HAND-PIECE, ADMINISTERING ANESTHESIA, OR COMPLETING A WAX-UP IS JUST ANOTHER SKILL TO BE ACQUIRED. THIS SKILL , HOWEVER, HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME an addictive obsession. you have been warned!
ON YOUR MARK. GET SET. PRO.
