Here’s winkin’ at you

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

Every time I fix a blink in a photo I like to flip back and forth a few times in Photoshop to entertain myself (it seems like the last few of them I did late at night, and just about anything is entertaining at that hour). So I thought I would share that little joy in my life with you. These photos are from the wedding re-shoot I did for some friends of mine, Kelly and Ryan. You can read about that in this blog entry, see the photos in the client galleries section or see the slideshow of the photos.

I offer free “blink fixing” for all print orders.

Goodies in the mail

I got some goodies in the mail today from Hong Kong. I was planning on taking a picture of all of the cool stamps and the beat up envelope that they came in, but that was coming between me and playing with my new gadgets. I have a lack of will power when it comes to new toys, so no photo of stamps for you…

I bought a set of Kenko Extension Tubes. They allow me to use my normal lens to do macro photography. The main reason for this purchase was to allow me to get some more artistic, close up shots of rings and flowers etc. at weddings. The bonus is that I get to use them to take some really cool close up shots of stuff to put on my wall. Fun times.

First up, my tooth brush. I tried to get a shot of my cat, and they my wife’s ring, but it was too dark in the living room and they kept moving. My toothbrush is better at holding still, and happens to be in a nice holder under some bright lights.

After coming to my senses I realized that pictures of the wifes toothbrush were boring, even in macro.

Stealing my wife’s orchids from our living room and setting on the railing of our deck in the sunshine got me two things.

  1. A look from my wife that said, “they fall 3 stories and you are in big trouble.”
  2. Good lighting and something a little nicer to look at then things found in a bathroom.

Getting KISSED!!

Friday, April 4th, 2008

In addition to my classic photo insert albums I will now be offering KISS wedding books. They are an awesome company (customer service at midnight awesome) with top of the line products. Well, they really only offer two products, KISS books and Little KISSes (see below). They try to keep it simple stu…. Anyways…

The KISS books are offered in an 8×8, 10×10, and 12×12 inch sizes with flush mounted photo spreads (there is no visible gutter between the pages). The only other option for the books is the color of the leather. Why so few options? Because simple is HOT (you can thank KISS books for that slogan).

Until I get my sample album in the next week or two I thought I would throw up a couple of pictures to show off wonderful books.

And the only other product they offer..

Looking for miniature version of your album for family and friends? KISS has it covered with these 3 5/8″ x 3 5/8″ books. They come in sets of nine and the color matches your KISS book.

Want more info on these? Contact us and setup a time to meet
