Seal the Deal with Love - Los Angeles Children's Photographer

Remember the cuttie pie D2 that we got a quick glimpse the other day?  Well, grandma loved the sneak peek.  So, as we creatives would like to make new stuff, I thought why not design a post card that's stamped with her grandson's images? Notice that, contrary to the ever-changing prices of (real) stamps, these limited editions (currently 2011 edition) are "priceless" and each year, you get to update with new portraits of your children or grand-children.

With these specially made cards in hand, you'd have bragging power to send a post card to all your friends, family, and, heck, anybody that you have a mailing address for. :-)

Before long, you'd have a collection to savor the beloved child's growth over the years.

About the post card, the design can be tweaked and will change from year to year.  Of course we can make it perfectly clean.  But would it be as interesting as this rustic-looking design?

All my clients of 2011 get to have this specially made for them.  Are you one of them? ;-)  Christmas is 67 days away and these cards make perfect gifts.  Just saying... :-)

P.S. The watermark at the bottom will not show in the final product.P.P.S. Post cards come with envelopes.

I'm Not a Big Sunset Photographer - Los Angeles Fine Art Photographer

That's right.  I love taking photographs around the time of sunset for its dramatic hues on everything (see why I choose sunsets over sunrises here).  But that doesn't mean I necessarily capture where the sun is.  

To me, when I feel something in my heart, that's when I press the shutter button.  It's a process where the heart comes first, and the technicality follows.  As the great Henri Cartier-Bresson said, "to take a photograph is to align the head, the eye and the heart".  

While I was traveling in this ancient town of Hongcun, China (see also here and here), this scene captured my heart.  I "froze" it in my camera and brought it back so you can see what I mean.  Has it touched your heart?

This image would make a beautiful decoration to your home, bringing peacefulness to your daily life, when processed on a piece of aluminum (i.e., metal print) or as an archival canvas gallery wrap. Please contact me if you are interested in more details.

Sneak Peek View of a 6-Month Fresh Baby - Los Angeles Children's Photographer

Decision, decision, decision...  How can I choose just one image to "reveal" to the anxious grandma and family?  Baby D2 is so cute and he gave me not one, not two, but a myriad of baby expressions that I love to capture in my photo sessions with children.While you will for sure get to know baby D2 more in a later post, this image will hopefully "quench the thirst".  However, I won't be surprised if it does the opposite and raise your appetite as a friend always wants to "eat" my cute portrait subjects.  Good thing she's all the way in Spain.  Right, Vanessa? ;-)
