Bridal Fair

Well, I made it through !! I survived the Bridal Fair this last weekend. And let me tell you, it went really good.
I had taken some photographs of the event, which included some fashion shows, and several contests (eating a wedding cake, trivia questions, newly weds and others for example) and of my small (quick-made) booth.







Hey, let me know what you think.

An Engagement and Bridal Fair

OK, Here I am in this new year. And as I mention before (at least I think I mentioned it) I feel really good about this year (there are far more individualistic reasons beside political inclinations); but now, that I mention something about "political" it's enough to say that I liked this last inauguration... it was truly historical.

Ok, ok, ok. I will stop talking about government and I will start talking pictures !!!.
On Wednesday I did a nice ... a very, very nice engagement session, to a couple who thinks "out of the box". and you know what ... I LOVED IT !! They came to me some months ago and asked me for a a session that show better their Gothic look, and so I agreed to do so, since I've been working with models and artist I new how to create the look they wanted, BUT I was worried because I didn't think they would know how to "act" in front of the camera... Well, let me tell you, they did it amazing !!!. The photographs are below and you will see what I'm talking about.

Thanks Angela and Matt for your amazing input in the session !!!.

The other thing I will mention today is about TODAY'S!!! It is the first Bridal Fair in Ogden and I am READY!!!. There is this New product that I am featuring, is the Multi-Images Large Panels. I am displaying 2 big samples in a new cool way, that you have to be there to see !! (I will post some images by Monday or Tuesday so you can see it from here).

Well, I am expecting to talk to over 50 Brides, and from there Schedule at least 5 Weddings in the show. And after the gathering, I expect to be visited by at least other 30 Brides in the studio in the next month or so to explain more about our products and ways to do things, and from there book at least 10 more weddings.

With the economy as it is I know is hard to project nice things, but with a little push in sales methods and business ideas, I know that we all can make a better year.

Well, I better show you the photographs, so you can see what I told you earlier.

Take care and I hope to hear from you some time soon.

See ya!!.











PS.- Thanks for your comments... I really appreciate them; they make me feel GREAT !!!

My latest Family Photo

Well, about a couple days ago (on the 2nd of January to be exact) I took my family to the studio and did a family portrait session, so we can send some photographs to our relatives throughout the world... literally throughout the world.

The session was amazing and we ended up with more than 400 photographs... ALL of them were beautiful (no just because I did take care of some details while the session, but mainly because my family is the most beautiful people I've ever known in the whole wide world), and now my wife and I have the greatest task (and super difficult task) of choosing what images will be sent to our families ... we want to send them all !!!. Now I can understand you (my customers) better when you have to choose your images... you want to keep them ALL because you love so so so much your family.

I wanted to share it with you so you all can meet, in one group, all my family... who, by the way, I love with all my heart.

I hope you enjoy it as much I do it.


Tell me your thoughts.

See you later.

Happy New Year !!!

Here we are... in a brand new year: this time is the 2009 !!!. What I am hoping from this year is as follow:
1.- This year is going to be GREAT !!!. You know why? Is because I had plan GREAT Things to happen:
- The born of my new baby girl (the fourth in my family).
- Quite a few camping trips with my family.
- Keep shooting my camera for my studio's customers, my family and for myself .
- Keep meeting great people: my customers, vendors and related venues.

2.- Financially this year is going to be better than 2008, because:
- I've been working a savings plan that if the economy in the country does not stabilize on its own, I could work it out, for my family.
- I just updated my web site and more people will learn from my site and more people will consult their weddings and portraits with me and my company... now, I am hoping for more people to hire me after they learn about my photography.

3.- The love in my family will be increased, because I had made arrangements for that to happen, following a great life style that will lift us all up, higher and higher.

You see? I know this new year is going to be great... because I had set my goals up, wrote them down and plan all the way. Beside, I know that even after the trials and the normal sufferings in life, the will of my Father is the same one as mine: He wants me to be SUPER HAPPY !!!.

HAPPY NEW YEAR for EVERYONE of You !!!!!

FELIZ AÑO 2009 PARA TODOS !!!!!!

With Love: AL

PS.- I had upload a couple of shots I took about 3 days ago. Some "nature" stuff. Enjoy.
