I Won The Pictage Photo Color Contest

I am very involved with different photographers organizations of which one of them is Pictage. Pictage is a lab I use to get some of my prints done and they also have these meetings I attend sometimes called the pug meetings. I attended one tonight and we had a contest for best image and the theme was color. I am happy to say I won the contest and here is the image that won.

Gallery Wraps

Check out this photo of this new product I added to my products I offer. These are called Gallery Wraps. This is a great way to get a family portrait printed or individual prints of your children and then all you do is hang them on the wall. No need for a frame. They come in 1 inch and 1.5 inches in thickness. I recommend the 1.5 inch thickness it looks really nice.

Saturday Wedding

I shot as a 2nd photographer this Saturday for a wedding that took place in Vacaville. The day went by very fast and the bride and groom had to do night time portraits because things went behind schedule. Weddings are so much fun. Here are a few photos from the day.
