I am thrilled to unveil a unique product that is only available through Decca Photography - I call it Love in Paint.  I unveiled it at the Dream Weddings Bridal Show today and was thrilled to have the artist there with me.

This unique product is a work of art based on one of your photographs.  The sample shown is a combination of digital painting, hand sketch (graphite on paper), beautifully combined digitally to show love in an abstract way.

I am offering an introductory price on this product for a limited time to any new couple that books an album package or to any current or previous client wishing to take advantage of it.

Here is the sample.

Today I also introduced my boudoir collection as an add-on, or as a stand-alone offering.  What an amazing day!

Now, a few photos of my booth at the show.

 

 

 

 

Tomorrow is the second day of the show.  It will be another great one!

I recently attended a photographer’s convention in Nashville and beyond the amazing education and great networking opportunities I did a bit of shooting. 

Yes, my friend Chuck Arlund scheduled a “shootout”.  Chuck out did himself with the locations and models and I had a blast shooting with some lighting help from a few other friends who held lights for me while I shot (I returned the favor for their own shots).

So, here are a few of my favorites:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was GREAT.  Thanks “Chuckie”!

I had the pleasure of photographing Puja and Neel’s wedding recently - at one of my absolutely favorite venues:  Chateau Polonez.  This was a beautiful event coordinated by the fine staff at Desi’gn.

Allow me to let the images tell the story.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the ceremony, the reception kicked off with Neel signing!  Let me tell you, he could easily have a second career!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for letting me share on your wonderful day.  I wish you both the very best.

I want to wish you all a VERY merry Christmas and the absolute best for the new year.  As we all wave goodbye to this year, I have to say that I am looking forward to 2010 and all it will bring.

So, here’s my stocking.  Feel free to leave a comment as a Christmas gift! 

I had the pleasure of photographing Melissa and Peter’s wedding recently and it was a lot of fun.  Let’s start with the trolley that the guys used to get to the church - and later transported the bridal party to the reception.  That was an absolute party on wheels!

The dancing was incredible and everyone just seemed to have such a good time.  As for me, it felt great to talk with one of the guests about photography and learn what she did for a living.  Turns out she works for the Make a Wish Foundation and one of her wishes is to be a photographer.  So, I handed over one of my cameras, lens, and flashes to her and let her take some photos.  Her fiance was ecstatic - and so was she.

Here are some of the images from the wedding.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Melissa, Peter, thank you for giving me the opportunity to share in your wonderful day.  Amy, thank you for letting me make your wish come true - even if for just a little while.
