Scouting it out
Today I have a wedding at the City Club in Cleveland, but first we are going to do some formal pictures at the Cleveland Public Library, Main Branch. I have shot pictures at the library before but it has been awhile so I thought it would be prudent to check out the venue and find some neat places to shoot. Attached are some of the reference photos that I took yesterday. I envisioned the bride and groom, bride alone, and bridal party at these locations.
If We Could be Heroes!
These People Are! This week I had the opportunity to photograph a "Heroes Event" for the Red Cross". These people from Geauga and Lake Counties appeared to be your average citizen, but they were not. They were honored for there heroic measures, from doing surgery in Haiti within days after the earthquake to young men saving there fellow students and bus driver when a health issue occurred.
Congratulations and THANK YOU!

Key West Wedding
I just got home from photographing a wedding in Key West. David and Allison had an awesome beach wedding. I literally just walked in the door and was so excited I had to post. I am currently downloading all the images to my main computer and will begin processing the raw (digital negative) files in the morning. I can't wait to put together this album. Here is Allison's family on the beach at Fort Zachary Taylor Park, a beautiful venue for an awesome wedding.

Christian MissionaryImages.com
My wife Jackie has a tremendous interest in Christian Mission Work in Haiti. I have personally been to Haiti twice and have been trying to use my photography to help that effort. I have established www.ChristianMissionaryMedia.com so that people who need professional images can download the images for use in their presentations and brochures, Check it out. Currently I am
only featuring Haiti but will add other international and local galleries.

Brides Beware
A friend sent me this link. Thought it was interesting enough to post. Especially since I have heard a lot of feedback from bridesmaids lately about problems they have had with their photographers.

Gold Rush
Many of the events we photograph are once in a lifetime events. Weddings ( yes we view getting married as a once in a lifetime event), Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, first communions and many other events.
Our NEW PACKAGES feature many items on CD or DVD. So we checked into the lifespan of these types of media. We found this quote, from Kurt Gerecke, a physicist and storage expert at IBM Deutschland GmbH, "Unlike pressed original CDs, burned CDs have a relatively short life span of between two to five years, depending on the quality of the CD,"
That sure scared us andwe went searching for the longest lasting CD's and DVD's we could find. We settled on MAM-A Gold DVDs and CDs. Here is what MAM-A claims about their media .
"MAM-A estimates their Gold label CD-R's have a life-span of 300 years . Other discs that they have tested look like they'll fail in 2 years or less."
THE POINT IS, MAKE SURE THAT IF YOU ARE GETTING YOUR IMAGES ON DISC, MAKE SURE THAT THEY WILL LAST.
We use the best media available to preserve your memories,
