Not just a wedding photographer.
This weekend I had the opportunity to work with the Bearinger Boys, a local Saginaw band. This band has the really awesome goal of lifting people above the hardships the area has seen, and focus us on cooperation and love to make Saginaw a better place to live. You can check their music out here:

2010’s “Blue Moon”
Technically a blue moon is when there are two full moons in one month. This happened in January of 2010. My wife read a report that this will be the biggest and brightest moon of the year because the moon will be the closest to earth while full. Well, I couldn’t turn that opportunity down! That night I grabbed a camera, tripod, and the longest lens I own. The resulting image:
The latest redesign of my printed materials.
I had a big show on January 10th at the Dow Event Center and for these expos you need to have something to hand out. Plus it’s also good to have something you can hand prospective clients that shows examples of your work and tells a bit about you and your thoughts on what it is you’re doing. My old brochures were out dated, I’ve shot many weddings since they were designed and I put my pricing on them, which had changed, so they were of no use. This time I used separate price cards to avoid the previous dilemma. The design was done by myself and Kristen Amaro Forster and was kicked off with templates from Alexis Miller. I did the biz cards, Kristen took the templates and reworked them into some awesome Tri-folds, and the price cards were a collaboration. All the printing was do at The Print Shop. Now, without further delay:

Bridal World expo at the Dow was a hit!
I just wanted to say “Thanks!” to everyone that stopped by my booth at the Bridal World expo at the Dow Event Center yesterday. It was a busy day of setting up, meeting and talking with brides-to-be, and tearing down. It was my second show and I was much more prepared to convey my vision of wedding photography. I received a lot of positive feedback and interest for which I am grateful.
Also I’d like to add a special thanks to the following people/companies for making this such a success: My wife, My family, Kristen Forester (my designer), The Print Shop of Saginaw, and SignImage,
Two Bridal Magazines get axed
According to this article Conde Nast is shutting down Modern Bride and Elegent Bride magazines. While this isn’t a wedding blog per se, this does show a trend that’s going on in the industry. Advertising is moving online and ad budgets are shrinking.
Daaaaamn! Now those are some wedding invitations.
That’s really cool!
