My album design is being featured!

Collages.net, a vendor I use for some of my coffee table books and archival prints. They are a great company. Every Friday they feature an album design on there facebook fan page. They chose my album design I made for the Vaz family. My design is actually a modification of a template that I purchased from Jenn Culp at http://designbyjenn.com/pages/businessdesign/businessdesign. I love her work and find it easy to rearrange, add, subtract, and change colors to suit the needs of my shoot. Can't wait to design another album for one of my clients! You can check out my album by following this link!

Photographing Children "Jesse, his father, and grandfather"

This is Sergio Sr. Sergio Jr. and Jesse. Jesse is 6 but, going on 16. Working with children of that age is always difficult. Who wants to sit/stand still while someone takes pictures... BORING! I find that making it into a game, or asking for funny faces makes children more interested. I let him set the pace. You can't force a child to smile, or punish them for not smiling ( I have witnessed that in the past) trust me it doesn't work. In fact it only guarantees that next year when it's family portrait time, you will have a melt down on your hands. Bringing his/her favorite toy is a good idea too. You can offer to take a picture of it for him/her. I let Jesse stand where he wanted, pose like he wanted and posed the family around HIM. Another trick I use is letting the kids take a picture of his parents with my camera (camera strap ON, lol). They love that and it makes them feel more involved. My rule is let the kid be a kid and your bound to get some great shots. Here are a

Reiff's Gas Station a bomb location for a bombshell

I thought I would get everyone's creative juices going with some pics I found online of the location we will be doing our Bombshell Bash at. These are some shots taken by other photographers at the Museum. The cool diner, love the black and white tile. Someone is getting on that horse!! See that plane coming out the roof? So cool. I am going to have fun playing with these different colors. My favorite of all, I think, the silver aluminum and the grass. I see someone wearing my apron and tutu gardening maybe? Hope you have been inspired. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. :)
