Cherry Bazaar Photography

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! html https://www.collages.net/consumersite/guestlogin.aspx?furl=The-Design-of-Cherry-Bazaar-Photography-820945648

   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...

Hello all you graphic designers out there. I am having a contest for the entire month of April to find the perfect logo for my photography business. Please send a small version of your design to cherrybazaar@comcast.net. I will give feedback and post your design on my blog. The winning design will receive a free portrait session, with no limit on amount of people, hours, or outfit changes. You will receive all your photos on a high resolution CD. In addition you will be credited on my blog (cherrybazaar.blogspot.com) and my up and coming website with a direct link to your site if at all possible. All who are interested listen up. The design must be a psd. file or developed in illustrator, also I need it to be 300 dpi and large enough to put on my car window. I am looking for something with a vintage feel. I have been playing with the idea of turquoise and red or pink and black? I really like the work of Jenn Culp (designbyjenn.com). For any questions, please contact me ...

Kelly and Tim's October 11th, 2008 simple ceremony took place at the modest Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses in Newark. Following the ceremony we took a short drive to Shinn Park a great location for portraits. The reception was held at the Spin A Yarn restaurant in Warm Springs. I had so much fun shooting these two. You could feel the love not only between the two of them but also the loving support from the entire bridal party. The reception rocked without losing the dignity of the occasion. It was a very nice wedding, and I was privileged to be a part of it. Tim and Kelly decided on a 10x10 imount flush album. Here are some of the pages. I would like to give special thanks to designbyjenn.com she has amazing and versatile templates. Check her out! http://design-byjenn.blogspot.com/.
