There are some new links to our flash video slideshows.  Previously, when anyone srcolled down the blog posts, it was possible to have more than one going at the same time and I had to find a way to calm them down.

This is a time when we are working on our marketing. I Just designed and received my new 8×5.5 post cards.  I had also designed some bookmarks – for both the weddings and the children.

Don’t forget we also do children and families on location.  Our on location sistting fee is only $150. Give us a call.

Sunday February 17th was my niece Holly’s wedding in Lansing to Chris, who is in the US Army.  Julie and I traveled up with some family to photograph the wedding held at the “Cadillac Club” – very interesting decor with pink Cadillac couches and Cadillac memorabilia all over.  It was an afternoon ceremony and celebration and afterwards they did a little “Bowling” since this was on the their regular league night.

 

As we are working with and booking our couples for the 2008 wedding season, we are finding that many are interested in “Save the Date” cards and magnets etc. I have been working with some new design software to come up with some modern designs.

I am also trying to work out ways to be able to photograph some simple relaxed fun images right here in my wide front porch.  Courney and Matt were interested in this and we gave it a try – this time with a soft background I have.   I will soon be adding some white rollup shades.

I am the president of the Detroit Professional Photographers Association and March 11 we hosted Jerry Ghionis – a word renown wedding photographer and speaker  – from Australia. We were fortunate to get him to stop here on the way from Australia to Las Vegas where he will be speaking at WPPI – the Wedding and Portrait Photographers International Convention.

We filled the house with over 200 photographers – and we all marveled at his phenomenal photographic talent, his passionate and entertaining delivery and savy business and marketing advice.  As the president, it was my priveledge to introduce him and run the program. He spoke all day and again in the evening for our regular meeting.  Julie is also on the board and did a great job as our raffel girl – we had so many great gifts donated by our vendors that everyone wanted to buy them.

Times like this makes me really proud and enjoy my role as president of this great  organization that does so much to keep photographers current on the latest advances and trends around the world.

On Sunday March 8th Julie and I had the opportunity to display our Photography at the German American Cultural Center “Networking Fair” in Sterling Heights.  With my German background, it was interesting to see so many other businesses with German roots.  I could speak German and most people there could even pronounce my real name – Waltraud.
