Wedding Photography is all about telling your story
How do you want your wedding story to be told? I love to tell a story; especially yours. Here is how I do it.
I like start my photography with you getting ready. Having your hair and make up done. While you are enjoying your friends and family’s company, I would quietly capture all of those special moments. Next I will take pictures of your friends, parents, other family members there, and of course, YOU!!! :-) Then I will hop on the ceremony location where the gusts are coming in and waiting for YOU to come in. There I will be handing out what I call “event cards”. These will have info about how the guests can view the pictures taken on your special day. After the ceremony, I will take you to a private location near by for your first pictures as Husband and Wife. Once we are done, then its parrrrrrrtttttttttty time and off to reception we go. Where the music will be playing and people will be dancing and having time of their lives. I will be there to capture all of this!!! Yeah…I LOVE my job!!!

American Idol Season 9 What Kind Of Artist Are You?
I am not sure what’s going on with American Idol this year (2010 Season 9). It seems like all the judges are asking the same things. “What kind of artist are you? and What sets you part from others?” I mean, if you don’t know who you are as an artist, then how anyone else will know.
It’s like when my clients book me they know exactly what kind of artist I am. I am the kind of photographer who loves to capture people in their natural state; where they are being themselves. Whether they are being goofy, serious, laughing or what ever they feel comfortable doing. To me those are the kind of moments that show the real them and I love to capture that!!! To put it in other way: You + Your personality + Your special moments + My camera = AWESOME pictures. WOW… I just found myself new mission statement. Who would have thought writing this post would have gotten me new mission statement??? Not I but I am soo glad I did. I am going to update my old mission statement (Capturing life's most treasured memories one photo at a time) with the new one (You + Your Personality + Your Special Moments + My Camera = AWESOME Pictures).
My spontaneous creativity sets me apart from others. Fine example my new mission statement. :-) You may wonder what else set me part from others. It’s ME.. ME…and ME. Did I mention ME??? The way I think….the way I light my clients…the way I set and hold my camera….the way I capture photographs…the way I photoshop my images…the way the way talk to my clients - I laugh with them, I get their thoughts and share mine, find out what’s important to them, what they like or don’t like, what they need or don’t need, what they love or hate. There is no one like me. Just like there is no one like YOU.

Babe James Super Model
Last Thursday, we (me and jenny) had our 7 months old nephew (babe James - I know it sounds pretty different but we LOVE calling him… BABE JAMES) for few hours. As Jenny was playing with James, I went to the kitchen to get something to drink and the light coming through the window was AWESOME!!! So, I told jenny to bring our babe James into the kitchen. As she was holding him, I quickly took few shots of him. The little man sure loved being in front of the camera!!!! He was looking right at the lens. As if he already knew how to pose and was ready to be a model. Watch out ladies here come our Babe James - the super model.
